Just curious what pitch troubles everybody the most. For me it's a couple LOL. But having to choose one I would say the low change up. I don't mean low out of the zone...I mean low in the strike zone. In fact for my POLL all answers are strikes. The slider is very challenging as well. The slider basically acts like a change up that drifts away from me.

I honestly think it's a little too difficult to judge the difference between fastball and change up without the use of some sort of aid like a hitter's eye. I love the challenge but I would also love the OPTION to have a hitter's eye as well. I am not talking about a hitter's eye like MVP did where you can see the color of the ball in the pitcher's hand before release. I am talking about seeing the color of the ball AT release and just a quick flash of it.

It's nearly impossible to tell, IMO. It's random luck. They look exactly the same, one just comes in and drops.

I miss guess pitch

Definitely the changeup low.

I could sit change up low and still not be able to time it. I can try using guess pitch and guess change up, know it is 100% without a doubt coming and STILL be early on it!

I think it's very hard to tell depth perception on a 2d screen. I am extremely curious if playing this on a 3d tv with glasses actually makes hitting a little easier.

Changeup low by far was the hated pitch. However with the custom cams (and 3D) I've been tons better. I plan on playing the 1st game of every series in 3D then the rest normal. Just so I don't get tired eyes or headaches. Haven't had issues yet though.

cool you have a 3d tv! Can you explain the difference in hitting? Is it easier or harder in any way? I am very curious about this.

The added depth of field helps my 44 year old eyes a lot.

Nothing about it is harder.
Just have to make sure 3D depth settings are good etc...
And it's very cool looking lol

Even without the 3D I use an offset cam edited low and that helped a ton.

Changeup low is def brutal as the bottom just falls out, but any sweeping slider and im screwed.
