Wow do I need practice with zone hitting!!
I strike out more now than I did using analog.
I will say though, making solid contact and getting an opposite field double over the right fielder's head feels really sweet!
I was headed to the 10th of a 1-1 tie A's vs Cubs (me).
I gave up a solo HR to Suzuki and then tied the game in the bottom of the 9th on a wild pitch, my runner going to third and Suzuki throwing the ball into left field.
I only allowed 2 hits but I just realized I pitching on All-star instead of HOF. I will switch that up next time.
Only one game where I made some really bad swings so I can't give a ton of input. Overall wasn't bad. As I said I only gave up 2 hits (I did strike them out 13 times though) and I had 5 myself (3 singles and 2 doubles).
All the hits felt legit and I didn't feel cheated or see anything that made me scratch my head.
I want to try these for a few more games and get a good feel of what's happening, plus I want to get better with zone hitting.
