How do I pitch good and make it realistic? About 1/3 the time I pitch a ball the computer swings and misses and when I pitch a strike they usually hit it? Am I doing something wrong? Or Can you give me some tips for pitching well.

Re: HELP ON PITCHING??
Mix up the pitches, throw both balls and strikes, concentrate on the speed and location of the pitches. Throw a couple offspeed and then throw a fastball high and tight. High fastball is a good strikeout pitch (ball or strike). -

But they always swing on bad pitches. Is there a slider I can change to fix it?Comment

Re: HELP ON PITCHING??
Maybe up the level??? On lower levels they do swing at a lot of junk. Every once in a while they'll swing at bad pitches when I pitch, but not all the time (and certainly not with guys who have high patience ratings).
A guy like Preston Wilson will swing at a lot of bad pitches while a guy like Bonds won't...Comment

Re: HELP ON PITCHING??
I was playing on pro but moved it up to the next level. They now hit everything in the strike zone. And I also cant control my pitches well. Here is exactly what I do. I dont know if im doing right because I dont have a instructions manual. First i pick the pitch then I move the analog stick like diagonal or wherever I want it then I let go so the analog stick so its back to its normal position then I click x for strike. But most of the time it doesnt got where I want it to go. Am I doing something wrong?Comment

Re: HELP ON PITCHING??
Well, I don't know if your doing anyting wrong, but here's how I pitch. I don't use the analog stick because I've never liked it (just a personal pref).
I'll select the pitch (and I don't always start a guy off with strikes). Early in the game I tend to start off guys with fastballs or changeups inside. Later in the game I start them off with Curves in the dirt (using the O button).
If I want an inside fastball for a strike I hit X, press inside on the D pad and hold it, then press X again to pitch the ball. I'll let go of the D pad once the ball is released. I've always pitched this way, just out of habit.Comment
