    dooch,

    its press and hold to the top of the meter, then press again in the green.

    So hold it until you get to the green/red release it where you want and press it when it gets back into the green.

    JRod-
    So you're saying release it at the TOP of the red meter, then press it again anywhere in the green meter, or the top of the green meter?

      so when you say picth around their hot zones, (lets say a guys hot zone is center high). would i place the cursor directly above or do i have to place part of the ball in the zone?

          probably both. If you throw, say a slider, that is set to end up right to the left or right of the hot zone square, the hitter is likely to chase it because it is so close to where he can rip something. If you have part of the ball icon in the red square, you can probably get about the same result, but the batter is much more likely to get solid wood on the ball.

              Re: Pitching Tips

              these tips are starring to get some results for me. still would like to k a little more often, but i'm getting there. another question. i do very during the early innings, but have trouble getting ks after my pitcher starts to tire. what do you do when fatigue starts to set in. is it more effective to fill the red and try to hit the litttle sliver of an accuracy zone or use more controlled pitches were you don't fiill the meter all the way and have a bigger accuracy zone?

                  I'd say you partially answered your own question. Don't fill the meter up all the time in the early innings. In fact mixing the speeds on fastballs is one way to get swinging strikes.
