    GAMEPLAY

    Higher loss of break for aiming a sinker, changeup, or curveball high in the zone (based on the starting point of the pitch)Fixed an issue that would cause a lack of a tag animation when the runner would come into the base standing instead of slidingFixed a bug that would sometimes allow the ball boy to rob a foul ball

    Can't wait to see the angry forum mob's responses:

    A) If the patch works, what do people complain about next?
    B) What do people claim the patch has "broken" or what did SDS secretly change without telling the community

    YES! THIS IS GREAT!... Although they "nerfed" pinpoint pitching yet I can still dot corners all day long so....

    I am skeptical they can get this "patched". This may be the placebo effect where they try to address it by telling people it was "patched"....Hope I am wrong and it actually is something that can be toned down

    We will see if it actually works. They have tried this several times over the years and it didn't do anything. I'm excited to play later

    Sinkers still coming out of the hand like off-speed pitches. I'm sure there are still connection/server errors since this has been happening for years.

    1 month since my ticket was opened... I'll keep my fingers crossed. I've seen other people get it fixed, so why not me? I'm only 1,452,245 in line!

    I think it’s fair… you can’t expect a sinker to have the same break when throwing it high as compared to throwing it low.

    If sinker is only like 1 mph slower than a fastball wouldn't you still throw the sinker anyways. I didnt see anywhere about saying the sinker up would be hit harder??

    Theoretically, if they applied this correctly, a sinker up in the zone should not have as sharp of break or the velocity of one down in the zone. Basically like a hanging curve, which they are also supposed to fix in this. The truth is this issue was not isolated to the sinker. It has just been highlighted for many reasons.

    I tested this myself with Cabrera. They didn't fix anything I threw 40 sinkers up high still has the same dip. They're liars.
