    My best advise? Just pitch. Like Jeviduty said chances are that whatever you throw is going to be hit a mile (or hit for a foul ball repeatedly) At this point just pitch and pray.

    Best advice I can give, is think like your opponent. Like a pitcher in real life. Don’t be afraid to double up if you think he won’t expect it. My online ERA is 3.39 which is pretty good, but I try and use the entire zone. I also make sure that what sequence I threw his line up the first time, isn’t the same way I approach them the second and third time through.

    Having an online ERA of 3.39 is extremely good

    I wasn’t sure. I figured around three in this years game was at least decent. Haha it’s difficult to pitch well this year

    Middle in. Very hard to get around on that imo. Avoid the corners as people can more easily slam the PCI down to get to those spots.

    This .. the low away slider being pulled for an absolute bomb. My all time era on here is 3.73 so it’s not bad just lately I can’t pitch ANYWHERE in events. Even a FASTBALL way out of the zone gets hit and since it’s quick counts it’s either throw a strike for a home run or walk

    Bauer is filthy. His cutter seems slower than 85, which fools me a lot of the time. And he creates a smaller PCI with his H/9 being so high.

    Pitching doesn't exist so much throwing the ball and crossing your fingers it doesn't sail down the middle of the plate regardless of your input.

    Lol right. You can hear “come sail away with me” playing in the background as it’s leaving your hand

    Do the exact opposite of what you think would be the smart decision. Curveballs up and in. Fastballs down the pipe...

    This is what works the best in MLBTS20.

    I’ve seen World Series players have success spamming the sinker over and over again, but with the way this game has turned into slow pitch softball pitching just doesnt matter anymore. Your opponent will swing at anything and get bailed out by the stadium or an RNG hanger for a home run. It’s late in the year, so SDS has to cater to the free swinging goons to keep the more casual players interested. If you want to be successful at pitching, I would wait for next years game.

    Sinkers always get me so I try to use them but I get hammered still maybe I need to mix location more I stick to edges a lot low and away up and in, inside never down the middle.. I feel like sometimes a little below the middle of he zone is a good spot too hard to get pci there usually a groundout
