Two finger hitting

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.
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.

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
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.
-
Doesn't matter what style I use still gonna swing at the pitch in the dirt.
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. -

Holy cow, I’m not the only one!
-
I’ll use it off and on. If I’m struggling with pci placement I’ll switch to the claw grip

Is your thumb broken?

I think this game is giving me rheumatoid arthritis in my thumb.

I think this game is giving me rheumatoid arthritis in my thumb.
Is it swollen and inflamed? Tendinitis could be a possibility. Basically tennis elbow, but in your fingers.

TIME.Same for me but with stealing. I don’t swing so my runner can steal a base, and what does the pitcher do?
He throws me a cookie. Fastball high and down the middle. Every time.

Not sure of the exact terminology but when I got my hamate bone in my hand removed (obsolete bone that baseball players break frequently) they widened the tunnel. Performance enhancing surgery for the show? Lol

I can tell exactly that you’re one those weird middle aged white dudes that beats their wife and drinks whiskey all day. Being a sick f**k must never get old huh?

Tried it a little but I stand while playing (since I gotta sit so much on my [censored] while I work) and it makes it awkward
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.
That's funny. I do the same thing from time to time. I have a few frantic moves i make when that meatball that I want to crush is coming down the plate. Even hopping up an inch ouf of my seat. Probably the reason I have trouble with PCI placement but I can't help myself.
