What he asked was what Nem showed in the diagram.

If the ball is high and to the left, you pull back and swing up to the left. If the ball is low and to the left, you again pull back and swing up to the left.

You as the player ONLY have to account for a smooth strike, timing, and outside/middle/inside. High and low is adjusted for you. There is still player ratings that are taken into account as well.

Oh I was actually talking about pitching, but EN answered it for me. Thanks.

If I didn't reply to your question then I didn't have an answer for you. Thanks for the comments. I look forward to this time every year here on OS so it's my pleasure to get any info I can. The CD guys tho will have way more info then I could ever provide. Can't wait!

Fantastic, a basic thing that was sorely lacking from previous years.

Yeah, I'll get that up sometime tonight. I have to do a conversion first.

I can't believe they even added a step out/timeout option!

Truly incredible.

Nice.

All I have to say is you all will be impressed with the attention to detail Sony has done with the rain.

Knowing these devs, I am sure there is still more to be revealed.

I sure wish they could of implemented this for online but Ramone said that they couldn't come up with a number of times allowed. They didn't want people abusing it for online. I would think once an inning would be ok tho???
