MLB The Show: The Hardest Pitch to Hit Is...

[scottyo60]

Knuckleballs by far kill me. My goal is to just wade it out and hope I get enough walks he tires out and I get to another pitcher

anything from a left handed submarine pitcher.

Those pitches are just nasty

[twinsfan34]

I use behind the pitcher, off-set a little (basically TV view) and the hard sliders aren't the toughest to judge from a RH pitcher. Submarine pitchers are tough to judge as well. The softer curves I can pick up on pretty well.

The next toughest pitch is guys with high velocity (rating) changeup, the CPU makes it look like it's as fast as their fastball, but it's ******** slow. Chapman for the Reds is a prime example.

If I'm a LH batter, then a LH submarine pitcher with a strong slider is also pretty tough.

knuckleball. the first game i played on 13 i was nyy facing dickey on toronto. one the game 4-3 on just one hit (cano grand slam after 2 walks and error)

also for some reason always struggle with hard sinkers, especially low ones but i never can do much against pitchers who have sinker as their main pitch

[SK8RAK3NROLL]

knuckle balls .. but like she said its been awhile sence i seen one

[N51_rob]

The devastating change-up that is in the low 80s when the pitcher can throw a mid to high 90s fastball.

The continuous fastball 4SFB or 2SFB from Strasburg. I mean they got this dude program to just come after you with the fast stuff. I will be down 1-2 and looking for his off speed stuff. I just get the heatttt... Nice though, I love it...

Re: MLB The Show: The Hardest Pitch to Hit Is...

The hardest pitch to hit for me is definitely the knuckleball. I usually try to draw some walks when I play against Dickey and run the pitch count up as fast as possible to get him out of there.
The only other pitch I really struggle with constantly is the high fastball. It's impossible to hit so it's a matter of laying off it in a 2 strike count.

Re: MLB The Show: The Hardest Pitch to Hit Is...

Probably a good slider because I'm impatient and they just continue to cut across the plate demanding good pitch recognition.

Chapman and kershaw. Chapman is nearly impossible to hit on legendary with zone hitting, his heater and slider kill me. its nearly impossible to move the p.i to the ball in time. I can hit kershaw, but i cant get hits off him. Perfect timing and everything but it'll still be an out.

[SK8RAK3NROLL]

playing against the computer is all about the difficulty level.. ive tried some sliders some guys on here made.. online i play rookie a lot cause im not much a stealer bunter type guy.. i feel higher difficulties more for small ball players.. but the Tigers a little different this year so maybe i need mix it up a little... srry for being off topic but obviously guys have trouble hitting certain piches but not everyone plays by the same rules..

Jared Weaver's changeup!

That pitch can go straight to hell. It got to the point where I would trade for Weaver just about every time I started a franchise so I didn't have to face him.

Re: MLB The Show: The Hardest Pitch to Hit Is...

Im Shocked at how many people have trouble with sliders, but then again I have trouble with one most people don't a NON hanging 12-6 curve meaning the ones that drop below the box forget it, they piss me off so much Knuckles too

[SK8RAK3NROLL]

I forgot about the un hittable LAG fastball right down the middle
