MLB The Show 16's Hardest Pitches to Hit

04:30 PM - April 14, 2016 by RaychelSnr

Perhaps the best element of MLB: The Show is its ability to get into the head of its player. The CPU A.I. is designed to toy with the player just as a pitcher would on the mound. A fastball here, a curveball there, and before you know it, you're watching your player walk back to the dugout empty handed.

Not all pitches were created equal, however. Kershaw's curve is unfair, Harvey's fastball is practically invisible and Sale's slider is just downright scary. With that in mind, what are the toughest pitches to hit in MLB: The Show 16?

Hard inside pitches and change-ups/splitters. I typically take all breaking pitches unless they are way high in the zone.

Another pitch that gives me trouble, though nowhere near to the degree the 12-6, is the screwball, though that's because I rarely see it. In fact I usually only see it when using classic rosters.
Does anyone even throw it in today's MLB? Hector Santiago doesn't throw it anymore, I guess. I like to play exhibition games against Phil Niekro & since I'm honed in on the knuckler, when he lets the scroogie fly, I haven't even put one into play, at least I don't think I have.
