Okay, after playing some today, I also find it easy to hit HRs with zone batting. I haven't tried the analog stick, so I don't know if that will make a difference. The problem with zone, besides homeruns, is that you end up hitting too many fly balls. Again, I don't know if analog will fix this. But come on now. Without a good ratio of ground balls to fly balls, you lose opportunities to ground into double plays, move runners over, etc. It defeats all the strategy of baseball. Every year Aklaim says they've fixed the gameplay and every year there are the same fielding problems and hitting problems. I'm not kidding. Every out using zone is a fly ball. The CPU will hit grounders, but you will not. I'm believing that others who claim to witness good variety of grounders to fly balls are counting when the CPU is batting. Someone please tell me if analog swing fixes the Homerfest and fly outs.
