MLB The Show: The Hardest Pitch to Hit Is...

[twinsfan34]

I use behind the pitcher, off-set a little (basically TV view) and the hard sliders aren't the toughest to judge from a RH pitcher. Submarine pitchers are tough to judge as well. The softer curves I can pick up on pretty well.

The next toughest pitch is guys with high velocity (rating) changeup, the CPU makes it look like it's as fast as their fastball, but it's ******** slow. Chapman for the Reds is a prime example.

If I'm a LH batter, then a LH submarine pitcher with a strong slider is also pretty tough.

knuckleball. the first game i played on 13 i was nyy facing dickey on toronto. one the game 4-3 on just one hit (cano grand slam after 2 walks and error)

also for some reason always struggle with hard sinkers, especially low ones but i never can do much against pitchers who have sinker as their main pitch

The devastating change-up that is in the low 80s when the pitcher can throw a mid to high 90s fastball.

The continuous fastball 4SFB or 2SFB from Strasburg. I mean they got this dude program to just come after you with the fast stuff. I will be down 1-2 and looking for his off speed stuff. I just get the heatttt... Nice though, I love it...

The hardest pitch to hit for me is definitely the knuckleball. I usually try to draw some walks when I play against Dickey and run the pitch count up as fast as possible to get him out of there.
The only other pitch I really struggle with constantly is the high fastball. It's impossible to hit so it's a matter of laying off it in a 2 strike count.

Probably a good slider because I'm impatient and they just continue to cut across the plate demanding good pitch recognition.

Chapman and kershaw. Chapman is nearly impossible to hit on legendary with zone hitting, his heater and slider kill me. its nearly impossible to move the p.i to the ball in time. I can hit kershaw, but i cant get hits off him. Perfect timing and everything but it'll still be an out.
