Pitch Sequence

[therizing02]

One thing I really liked about MVP Baseball was the ability to see how the opposing teams pitcher pitched to your hitters in every at bat. They showed the pitch type and location. Is that available in 2K7? Will it be there in 2K8?

I agree..I dont think it was in 2k7 because I couldnt figure out how to see what pitches were thrown to me the previous at bat but I found this feature quite useful in MVP baseball. I too hope it is in there in 2k8.

I remember that as well, and used it frequently. In real life I would imagine that any hitter after facing a pitcher in a game once would come up to the plate w/ an idea in mind of how that pitcher pitched him. Having this feature was like have that memory as a batter. I wish 2K would implement this as well... I loved the way MVP did the batters eye thing too, and a breaking ball, fastball, or off speed pitch could be identified by a certain color.

The biggest thing I think 2K needs to improve on in the realm of pitching is pitch count and the amount of balls/wild pitches/passed balls thrown by a CPU pitcher. I know there were sliders that remedied this to a certain extent, but I want to see this done better w/ the default sliders. CPU pitchers would throw too many strikes, and everything seemed to head for the outside corner all the time.
