Go into your settings and turn check swings off(or whatever option is used) and try a game. Believe it should work on dd because I haven’t seen a check swing in a while
Done, hopefully next game every checkswing will be a strike!

Excellent pitch tunneling....I bet all the strikeouts were fastballs that were not recognized in time. Every time I throw one, it is sent to the seats.

a ton of people (myself included) use check swings to check our timing, and with a check swing, you get the feedback. I check swing on strikes in the zone, placed in a location I don't like. It's a strike either way, and I get specific feedback on my timing without making contact.
MLB guys do this on virtually every pitch. You see them go through their stride to time things up. The video game doesn't give us this option, so check swinging is the next best thing.
Do you check 35 times per game?
If I'm not actually swinging, I tend to check swing. Again, I get timing feedback, which is far more useful than sitting there and watching the pitch.
Work every pitch of every at bat, get as much data as possible, then use it to your advantage.

I don’t think you ever needed to check your timing 35 times in a game, also... those pitches were all out of the zone. How can a good hitter be fooled that often? Look at the pitcture I uploaded again

I hear you man, just giving you other explanations as to why/how people use the game mechanic.
I just played a 6 inning game (he dashboarded) against Nolan Ryan. I check swung at least 30 times, he threw over 100 pitches in 5 innings.
I work the count to death, but I take advantage of the ability to time pitches up in the mean time.

You would have swung and missed and the guy that checked his swing noticed a bad pitch and stopped his swing. So the guy with the ability to check his swing is the better player.
Any good player would’ve taken those pitches and forced me to throw strikes. If I kept throwing the pitches out of the zone is because he had no plate discipline... the proof is all the checkswings, he started to swing and went to the bail out quirk every bad hitter uses... checkswing
It’s a game breaking mechanic. I played this game when it launched and then stopped for months and picked it up again. I didn’t realize how bad the check swing was. It’s the difference in a lot of games.
It basically tires pitchers out so they make mistakes and you can’t always go to your bullpen. And tiring a pitcher out is fine but not like that. It’s corny.

That’s how I lost my WS game this season, against that checkswing bandit...my bullpen was already taxed from previous games I had to sweat to win

Lol, I’ve seen Brev work pitch counts to 100+ pitches in 4 innings and never seen him checkswinging that much... yes, it’s an exploit, you’re getting bailed out too Lucas.

Check swinging at FB's on the inside corner that are obvious strikes is getting bailed out? Check swinging at sinkers 3 inches outside is getting bailed out?
No, that is working on timing for a pitch that DOES come into the zone and is where I want it.
Check swinging at a curve ball 3 seconds early because you were fooled? Those are the guys you are talking about, and they DO get bailed out. I don't argue there.
I Know Cbrev personally, he's a top player. You are correct he doesn't need to check his timing, because he's a GOD at the game. Most of us aren't, and it's helpful to get timing feedback (unless of course you believe it's consistent across all games on SDS servers....cough cough).

It was 50/50 I'd guess (just a guess). Using Ryan, he was throwing a lot of sinkers middle in, right on the black. I have no interest in breaking my bat, but I still wanted to time it up for those pesky high sinkers.
I didn't check swing on breaking balls, because, it was Nolan Ryan who has the control of Wild Thing before glasses.
This was an exceptional example too. Knowing that Ryan is hard to control, I was almost always taking two strikes unless it was a meatball down the middle.

There are gonna be a lot of people whining to bring an exploit back and they are going to try to back it with all sorts of real game data in attempt at supporting their argument to bring back check swings.
“When Roberto alomar was in his 2nd year with the blue jays he had a game against the Yankees where he successfully check swung 47 times therefore it needs to be in the game because it’s possible”
My guess is you finding out that SDS saving the whole game with this check swing fix still isn’t going to be enough for you to be a top player.
Then just like all of 2020, you’ll come on here bitching about each and every loss and how SDS sucks, and you’re done with the game. It’s all good though, I’d be pissed too if after 13 years, in the easiest version of game to hit, I was only hitting .278.Hopefully you find peace one day because your bravado is absolutely unbearable on these forums! ️

Jump on any game right now aside from 20. And I’ll smack you in it. Wanna bet? You have no idea how good I was in this game. I beat top players literally all the time. Yes I’m not good in 20. I was however good in 19. My last 2 seasons I hit 347 with my last season going undefeated. World Series 4 times. The game actually grew on me although I felt like it was flawed.
20 is the most noob friendly version of this game and in 21 I will be better then most. And def better then you.
Edit ** actually I think it was 327ish but I haven’t actually looked.

a ton of people (myself included) use check swings to check our timing, and with a check swing, you get the feedback. I check swing on strikes in the zone, placed in a location I don't like. It's a strike either way, and I get specific feedback on my timing without making contact.
MLB guys do this on virtually every pitch. You see them go through their stride to time things up. The video game doesn't give us this option, so check swinging is the next best thing.
Do you check 35 times per game?
If I'm not actually swinging, I tend to check swing. Again, I get timing feedback, which is far more useful than sitting there and watching the pitch.
Work every pitch of every at bat, get as much data as possible, then use it to your advantage.
I don’t think you ever needed to check your timing 35 times in a game, also... those pitches were all out of the zone. How can a good hitter be fooled that often? Look at the pitcture I uploaded again
I hear you man, just giving you other explanations as to why/how people use the game mechanic.
I just played a 6 inning game (he dashboarded) against Nolan Ryan. I check swung at least 30 times, he threw over 100 pitches in 5 innings.
I work the count to death, but I take advantage of the ability to time pitches up in the mean time.
Thanks for confirming its an exploit.
Lol, I’ve seen Brev work pitch counts to 100+ pitches in 4 innings and never seen him checkswinging that much... yes, it’s an exploit, you’re getting bailed out too Lucas.
Again man in just glad its fixed.
Gonna be a lot of whiney ppl in 45 days lol
There are gonna be a lot of people whining to bring an exploit back and they are going to try to back it with all sorts of real game data in attempt at supporting their argument to bring back check swings.
“When Roberto alomar was in his 2nd year with the blue jays he had a game against the Yankees where he successfully check swung 47 times therefore it needs to be in the game because it’s possible”
My guess is you finding out that SDS saving the whole game with this check swing fix still isn’t going to be enough for you to be a top player.
Then just like all of 2020, you’ll come on here bitching about each and every loss and how SDS sucks, and you’re done with the game. It’s all good though, I’d be pissed too if after 13 years, in the easiest version of game to hit, I was only hitting .278.Hopefully you find peace one day because your bravado is absolutely unbearable on these forums! ️
Jump on any game right now aside from 20. And I’ll smack you in it. Wanna bet? You have no idea how good I was in this game. I beat top players literally all the time. Yes I’m not good in 20. I was however good in 19. My last 2 seasons I hit 347 with my last season going undefeated. World Series 4 times. The game actually grew on me although I felt like it was flawed.
Lol. I don’t care what you think. In 19 I made it to the round of 16 in an ESL tourney and consistently hit over .300. And a better winning % clip than you. None of that matters though because you could be the best player in the world but you’re still unbearable and never contribute anything positive to this forum. And my guess is history doesn’t all of a sudden change.

Don’t go by lifetime stats there’s a lot of adjusting that some of us go through because the game has catered to players like you. That’s what my last 3 seasons looked like buddy — Btw a lot of those players you played in ESL arent unbeatable. Don’t assume and make an [censored] out of yourself. I’m no scrub. And I barely lost in 21.

Congrats again this isn’t about skill. Because my ego isn’t attached to if I win or lose in MLB the show. You’re still a whiner that talks down to people and brings nothing but aggression and negativity.
Let’s say all goes your way, you’re a top player, you’re smacking noobs like me all day everyday. My guess is you’re still an unpleasant person on these forums.
