I wish I knew the answer to this myself!
The only reason I dont like using the batters cursor is I hate holding it in place with left joystick while trying to swing with the right joystick. (I play on the 360)
If there is a way to "lock" the cursor in place where you're guessing before the pitch that would be AWESOME!
Anyone? Anyone know how?
EDIT:
According to a guy in this thread from 2K sports forums you're supposed to hit "B" on the Xbox 360 to lock the cursor in place. Not sure what the equivelent on the PC is. But I assume its that button. And you must do it before the pitch.
