MLB 12 The Show Videos - Zone Analog Batting and Pulse Pitching

[jv35]

Am I the only one that noticed that David Wright had a different style of helmet?

I wasn't that great with analog batting, but I'd atleast like to try ZAB, and Pulse Pitching, in spring training.

Currently there is no way to control speed in pulse pitching. May be incorporated in the future.

I noticed that of course! But the problem is, no biggie of course as I'll change it, he doesn't wear that kind of helmet. It's very cool looking though. All the mets players have worn the same type of helmets since 2006. You can even check, the mets are the only team to have every single player wear the same helmet since 2006, when at the time, those were the new helmets that came out. I think it might be a mets policy.

For pulse?...unfortunately not.(this is one thing I hope they change about it)
It's all ratings driven right now.
I don't know if there is any mechanism in place to factor in pitch count and base runner situation.

I don't mind this that much. Most of the time I'm maxing out my effort anyways.

Its not that big of a deal but I can definitely see it being implemented for people who like to add a little "finesse" to their pitches.

Speaking of helmet policy, I noticed that all the Tampa Rays hitters sport a shinny helmet. No tar à la Vladimir Guerrero, Jorge Posada and others. Perhaps that's a team policy as well. Looks neat...
