So if I am reading correctly, you would have to choose what type of swing you want(power, contact, etc..) before every pitch?

May have just completely read that wrong.

Was there a noticeable difference between windup and stretch? Can't wait to try this out.

The right stick is just as responsive for pitching! You are still setting up for where you want the pitch to break. Yes, certain pitchers who have long slow motions will result in the ball falling down the shaft much slower, really depends on the pitcher. Also, when you are in the stretch the yellow release line moves up close to the top to compensate for the quicker motion.

Good questions!

You did...
Don't touch a button...and it will be "normal".

Want to try power?...hit square...

Down 0-2?....you can try contact swinging.

Of course you can do any of the above on any count as well.

With analog? You are defaulted to a regular swing so you do not need to press anything. If you want the others you would need to press them ahead of time!

Hey Nem, Knight, or EN, whoever can answer, could you give some insight on the broadcast fielding camera? I thought that it was angled too low in 10 and was not really functional on balls hit to the outfield, but I loved what it did for infield play. It looks like in some of the videos that it has been changed a bit but I can't tell for sure.
Thanks fellas

Yes, analog. I gotcha now, I was just thinking weirdly about it.
