    Check swings do need to be fixed. Can we all agree on that?

    On things that need to be fixed it’s not very high on my list. Foul tips anything anywhere is higher and so is lining out for 9 innings on good contact with 99 superstars

    No, no we can’t. We haven’t been able to explain the logic behind check swings in this game for years.

    I think hitting is, by nature of the game, so much more difficult than pitching. I'm okay with check-swings because they're a part of the game that helps the batter out just a bit.

    Why does my opponent, through four innings, have 13 checkswings and all of them called balls.

    I have four checkswings, and all of them called strikes.

    How? Why?

    Just bunt every time.

    Check swings are a skill. Learn how.

    This is sarcasm, right? Has to be.

    I couldn’t imagine getting bailed out repeatedly by a flawed mechanic and then believing it was a skill.

    But yeah, I guess if using contact swing is a skill, I’m going to have to git gud. Haha

    I believe check swings are determined by the player's discipline rating. The higher the discipline rating, the better odds of a check swing being called a ball.

    Seeing someone believe check swings in this game are skill based gave me the laugh I needed.

    Some people are good at check swings. Some can’t do it very well. It doesn’t happen on accident. Therefore it’s a controller skill to learn to do. Or don’t and just complain about it.
