Tenshi28 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I am getting torched with this guy. I mean, seriously, he has an ERA over 8.00 after some 40 plus games. Not only that but the opposing batters are hitting above .400 off him. I just don't seem to be able to get any kind of groundouts or easy fly balls. When they hit it, it's either a home run or going for extra bases. A few times it's just a matter of not exectuting, but for the most part I think I am pitching just the same as any other guy, and still they're killing me. Any advice on how to fix this mess?

TrumpeteerNYR Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Well what skill level are you playing on? Have you adjusted your sliders at all? Maybe you're giving the computer too much of an advantage with hitting, and you're making pitching too difficult? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ehhh Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 It's tricky to use power pitchers like Wagner in this game that don't have a real offspeed pitch. I throw a lot of intentional balls with Mo Rivera to get guys to chase and just go back and forth to both sides of the plate. If you keep pounding the strike zone at a similar speed you will get lit up with guys like Wagner and Mo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SESbb30 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 i never get hit hard with mo, never used wagner before. but ya, just work both sides of the plate and use his slider effectively, and try throwing his fastball straight up and out of the zone to get them to chase it.
