One post.
This is still a relevant discussion for CPU vs. CPU players (I'm not but was considering manager mode this year).

You know, that thought never occurred to me. However, now that we're fairly confident that this is in fact a bug and not intentional, we can also be fairly sure it will be patched.

The evidence seems pretty clear. If it's a placebo, it's one helluva placebo.

Re: first pitch meatballs....bug?

Just tried this in RTTS mode (I really wasn't noticing it in Franchise)

First game I tried it 5 at bats, 4 times the first pitch of the AB was outside the strike zone, and the one time it was in the strike zone it was a fastball knee high on the outside corner.

I'll play around with it more later.

Calling for Time after pitcher picks pitch works 100%

Il will prolly start my RTTS all over so i can do it from AA all way to MLB.

Hopefully next patch we wont have to push pause but makes game more fun.

Re: first pitch meatballs....bug?

I've definitely seen a difference. I was just hacking at the first pitch every time and getting hit after hit (RTTS for what it's worth). But now, I can have an actual AB and the hits have been sparse. So wtfickle, my inner sim fan is very grateful to you, but my batting average hates you.
