As far as timing only... it IS timing only, the only adjustment you have to make is if the pitch is inside, then push forward and slightly in and if it's outside, push forward and slightly out.

For the second part, where is that stated in the video?

The first part happens to me when my brain sees the pitch coming low or I know I can crank the ball. My thumb follows the ball I guess and so I go to cream the ball but the player will check swing last minute. I guess because I didnt move the stick right to the top when my brain sees the ball coming bottom corner, I dunno.

It's not explained, and I have no clue why as Russell has talked about it multiple times. It's an odd exclusion that's for sure. And just remember, pull back and push up, REGARDLESS of whether the pitch is high or low. It's always the same motion

Well if thats the case the video should be pulled and redone.

And I know maybe in my anxiousness I press it down who knows, but the problem is check swinging when you dont want to haha

Oops, they left out some important information!

That's quite a poor tutorial.

I guess I'll just have to figure some stuff out with the demo before deciding whether or not I will use it when the full game comes out.

They say stride when the pitcher releases, but what about guys with big leg kicks like Buster Posey?
