With the capabilities of this game and the ps3 I am shocked they haven't figured that it is that good of a option. Pitching from the side of the rubber on the other hand, I'm not sure what benefits would be gained from doing so. This seems as if it would just be cosmetic in nature and no "real" benefits come from it. However I would think that it would be included in a pitchers unique style and put into their pitching package.

Ken Griffey Jr for SNES was the game you might be thinking of.

It's not realistic to move your batter around the batters box. Hitters are very consistent about how and where they stand.

Ive noticed that some of the batting stances are placed in different positions in the batters box.
