Where does it have Home run distances???

Gotta win the turning points and Key batter situations. You gotta yank your pitchers out of there right when they get tired or start getting rocked, or it gets ugly.

CPU hitting was pounding me on All STAR Hitting. I would have a bunch of good innings shutting down the CPU, and then a few horrendous ones, just awful awful ones. It wasn't working.

So I found a better mix. Since CPU PRO was getting to easy to shutdown, I went back to CPU PRO Hitting, but I turned off my pitching cursor so I couldn't paint the corners or my pitches. That seems to be the right mix right now.

They are not listed on-screen (disappointing), but the home run went right over a wall where the distance was marked.

This game is amazingly fun to play. Probably the best $10 I have ever spent. However, when I play against a friend our games are very high scoring. Does anybody else have this problem? It seems like it is very difficult to pitch against someone playing with you because they can see the pitch marker where you want to originally place it.

I know you can turn the pitch marker off but then I can't tell where I am placing the pitch...

Keep playing with the marker/cursor off you will get used to it. At first it is really tough, but once you play for awhile, you will get the hang of it. That's probably your best bet vs. someone. I'm playing with the cursor off now, and I've gotten use to it pretty quickly. Still leaves a good level of uncertainty, but that's good, you don't want to be able to paint the corners all the time.

I gotcha, you were estimating. I thought it might be in the game somewhere and I missed it, I was pumped for a second,,,hahaha. Marcum does sting the ball for some reason. Dude it a rocket down the line on me and I was like what the hell??

Is there any point to using anything other then "power" swing? I cant even get the ball out of the outfield using a "regular" swing...
