Mathew Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I'm not so sure I understand things. I suck at it super bad so I just wanted to make sure I was doing things correctly. When should I press the button on the pitching meter? When should I take my pictchers out of the game? I mean 79% stamina on a 9 ball pitch count thats ridiculous! Please help.

Jim825 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 You press the button on the meter twice -- Once when it gets to the speed you want (i.e. to stop it when it is moving "away" from you), and then again when it gets release the actual pitch, as close to the "sweet spot" (the small green area) as possible. The closer you are to the sweet spot, the more accurate your pitch will be. Also, as far as the fact that you got no responses sooner, it could be because this game is almost 4 years old and this question has been answered numerous times. Have you searched the forums to look for this same question? There are probably plenty of answers to your question there. Finally, complaining about not getting a response is the perfect way to alienate yourself, and cause people to not want to help you. As they say, "You catch more flies with honey than vinegar)...

Mathew Posted January 1, 2009 Author Share Posted January 1, 2009 im sorry about that it wasn't my intention to alienate. So before it gets away from me, like before the red part at the end of the meter? Also when should I take a pitcher out of the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfguy10 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I might add concerning your stamina question. As a pitchers stamina decreases you'll notice the sweet spot decreases also making it tougher to be accurate. It's up to you and your ability in managing a tighter sweet spot. Also, notice your pitchers array of pitches. All pitchers have pitch types they throw well and some not so well. You'll notice this on the pitch type icon. The green bar shows how effective the pitcher is with a pitch type. In your pitch meter you'll also see a red zone - letting your pitch ramp up into the red makes it more difficult to be accurate. PM me and I'll try and send you the manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathew Posted January 1, 2009 Author Share Posted January 1, 2009 Once again i apologize for my mistake. I think I get my problem I was only hitting it once in the "sweet sport area" i would just let it run to the red part with out pushing a button. So I need to push the button prior to the meter fading into the red? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim825 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 The further you let the meter go before you press the button the 1st time, the faster the pitch will be, and the less control you will have. Then when it starts moving back the other way, you want to press the button again when it is as close to the center of the green area as possible. I don't really have a hard and fast rule on when to remove my pitcher. If he is pitching well (and I can still control his pitches), I'll let his stamina get down to the 40's. If, however, he is getting lit up, I might relieve him even if his stamina is still in the upper 60's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
