Fastball hitting tips?

For some reason in this years version of the show I can't seem to be able to hit any fastballs above 94 mph. Then when I do hit its nothing but grounders and fly outs. Any tips to improve my hitting?

That's part of the problem. The cpu ends up aiming your pci for you.

Re: Fastball hitting tips?

Without zone, yes. You can cover left or right but you are SOL when it comes to height. And when it comes to pop ups and grounders. Swing trajectory means more than inside and outside location. You have ZERO control over swing trajectory in pure analog. That is completely controlled by the CPU. Playing with Zone or Analog + Zone, you get control of the trajectory of your swing.

Re: Fastball hitting tips?

What kind of feedback are you getting on your stride and swing timing? At what point in the pitchers windup are you pulling back on the stick?
