    That’s interesting. I may need to try that cuz I often kick my feet in the air when I swing at a juicy pitch.

    Anybody else on here use their thumb and index finger when hitting? Took me a little bit to get used to at first but having pressure on both sides of L3 has helped me a ton to stop dropping my PCI.

    Yep

    Nah, it feels goofy! lol but I’d imagine with practice it would feel a little better.. kinda like control freeks, which I love now. I know Zo hits that way.

    He does a really good job of explaining it, i still need more practice with it on legend but I was able to go 12-0 using that method

    Makes sense what you’re saying. I like to lift the pci from the bottom with my thumb pre-pitch to accomplish the same thing.

    I could see how it would be effective. I’m cautious that it’s a recipe for carpel tunnel.

    Me. That’s how I play all my games, really. Thumbs are responsible for the X, A, B, and Y buttons, D-pad, and analog sticks, while the index fingers control the right and left buttons and triggers.

    I didn’t know this was an uncommon thing. Thought everyone held the controller this way.

    lmao I read this and thought right away "wtf no never" Went into a ranked seasons game vs degrom (it's always degrom or cabrera) and thought why not try it... first 2 pitches were homeruns and a double with the 3rd. Trea, Jose Ramirez and Vlad Sr.

    I have come to accept that swing at pitches in the dirt is a part of me know

    I can do other things with 2 fingers, but that's unrelated to this game. Not sure how what you're describing would work.

    I got banned for 2 weeks for suggesting a soon to be father ask the doctor to put an extra stitch in his wife after giving birth....

    Here you are playing with 2 brown fingers

    As you should, what weirdo is gonna have his wife go through the trauma of childbirth and look for a pervy benefit out of it

    Woah! Do you know how babies are made? Have you ever seen a grounds crew go to work after a rain delay?

    It's awful sloppy out there....

    Slider away is it for me. I have gotten better at it but I am still impatient so I swing at a lot of pitches out of the zone. I love the moment every game where I am mad at myself and he's been throwing 75% of his pitches outside of the zone. So I put down my controller so I dont swing.... boom 4-seam belt high.
    EVERY.
    SINGLE.
    TIME.

    I’ll use it off and on. If I’m struggling with pci placement I’ll switch to the claw grip
