    I can't believe people are arguing with you. Everyone knows where the strike zone is in this game and there's visual evidence.

    Total BS my man.

    Everyone arguing the placement of the ball and I’m just looking at the early ok being hit for a HR. I don’t care where the ball is hit from rewarding someone for swinging early and having bad pci placement is what’s wrong with hr derby the show 20.

    It's actually not eye level,though by the rule book it should be. top of the strike zone is just above the belly button,which is accurate to real life, from the rule book it should be the bottom of arm pits but hasn't been that in over 20years.

    Going by just above belly button - I estimate that pitch to be bottom of the collar bone.

    What? Top of the strike zone is shoulder height. This is above eye level.

    According to rule 2.00 of the Major League Baseball rule book, a strike zone is defined as "that area over home plate the upper limit of which is a horizontal line at the midpoint between the top of the shoulders and the top of the uniform pants, and the lower level is a line at the hollow beneath the kneecap" and is determined by "the batter's stance as the batter is prepared to swing at a pitched ball."

    The strike zone isn't the shoulders. It's the middle point between top of the pants and shoulders.

    Who hit the ball and where were you playing?

    Yeah it is, you're right. Are you okay with this being a 2 run homer regardless of circumstances? On this feedback?

    It seems like I'm the odd man out here, but yeah. If he expected the high fastball, and got the PCI all the way to the top then yeah, plus an early swing raises the PCI a bit more. Probably won't see it again. Very unfortunate for sure though!

    I don't know, it is easier to formulate an opinion when I have more information. Depending on who it is that hit it it could be possible. Terrible luck on your part, but still possible.

    I won't ever accept feedback like this being anything other than a pop up. Ever.

    once you realize this is a video game that grown men and adolescents play then you will understand why SDS does not make it that realistic. They act like it's a simulation but it's more of a dungeons & dragons dice roll game with some user skill added in along with fancy graphics

    That’s one of the reasons this game blows.

    Took a nice little break from the game, I needed it. Started a BR game just now, on a 4-0 run that I started last week. Score is 2-2 and then my opponent hits a 2 run homer ON THIS

    https://imgur.com/a/7JGWrV2

    Are you FFFFFFing kidding me? I knew exactly what my opponent was looking for. I read him like a book. I knew he was gonna chase, so I spot the pitch extra high. Because you know... in this game you can never be to sure, those can still be crushed. But I've NEVER seen anything like this before and it actually turns my stomach.

    Edit: my pitcher was O'Day with full stamina.

    Lol..how tall was the batter? Be awesome if it was altuve lol

    Let’s be real...this game sucks. There’s no way to sugar coat it. This ain’t baseball. This is roulette. You either are on the good end of bad end of terrible game development.

    And you're back on the block list. Fyi, you're not even in the same league as me just so you know, you should keep that in mind next time you tell someone to get better.

    Your blocking me because I gave you a taste of your own medicine? Think about that the next time you want to act up....hypocrite.

    same exact location for me today and it was 102 mph to boot. same result. he was early and HR. I couldn't have thrown it higher if I tried.

    Edit: I will add that I am perfectly fine with HR on FB high above the zone... but the variables have to be right. The batter needs to have the vision and power, the swing needs to be perfect. Then it will happen as often as it does in real life... which it does happen. but if when its not even good, let alone perfect timing... no. just no.

    Just goes to show you that as a pitcher, you are never safe from a solo shot, even if you throw it in the visiting team dugout they can still get a early okay bomb
