    If someone wants to do that to me I’ll just slow pitch the [censored] out of them. Maybe I’m just add but that annoys the [censored] out of me the most

    I never used R2 last year. I will use it this year if I have runners on base and I'm getting quick pitched. I should have a little time at least think about controlling my runners between pitches. You really don't even notice a big delay when hitting, just feel more normal and less like you are facing a super human pitcher.

    This is why I won't play online. I don't deal well with people who cheat because winning is the only thing that matters to them.

    Nothing to do with quick pitching when I am playing. That is just a poor excuse and always has been. It only happens when they see I will not be an easy win. I don't quick pitch.

    I use it to see pitcher confidence and energy, as well as where I was pitched previous at bat. I have a MUCH bigger problem with all the pauses during games for much longer durations. I wish they would lower the pause time to 1 minute for the whole game.

    This was more of an issue for me when I used pulse pitching. Since then, it hasn’t bothered me. I do still use R2 to check confidence, energy, and previous pitches, as Hoffsdrawler said above.

    Occasionally, I will hold it an extra second to take a breath and slow my opponent down. That’s what it’s for!

    God forbid people use a function that was intentionally put in the game to be used.

    I for one use it to check the last pitches and locations pitched to me. Thats the only way to check on those as i turned the Feedback Option off. The only way i can enjoy this game.

    If I ever play you ill use r2 every single pitch.

    @SDS_Jax @Collin_SDS

    You're trying to report someone for using something they are allowed to use? Like someone else said, it maybe causes a 2 second delay and is better than pausing after every pitch. Again as someone else said, I use it to check pitch locations/types and usually as soon as I start looking the guy is pitching the ball so it barely delays the pitcher.

    I just played a dude who was an asshat. He saw I had a better team on paper so of course he does the childish friendly quit. Once I refuse he turns into the biggest dbag. Holding R2 on every single pitch. So I think ok maybe he thinks I'm pitching too fast so I'll give it some time between each pitch, But nope no matter how long I waited to pick a pitch he still held R2 like a child. He even threw in some entertaining bunt dancing for the last couple innings. Gawd I love playing online.

    I use it to battle against quick pitches. If they take that function away, then I will just pause if I have to, but your not going to rush me as a batter to where I cant even take a couple of seconds to analyze how your pitching to me.

    Am I the only World Series player that didn’t know that R2 caused this lol. I always just used it like all the time to look at what pitches were thrown and the pitch count.
