And bunting too…no real professional baseball players bunt.
And it’s actually illegal in college baseball….and I know because I played!!!
Is this becoming a meme? I fully support it since, you know, I played college baseball.
I’m not a meme master, but I do stay at a holiday inn when my college baseball team travels……so yes.

I’m ready to ban the sinker from future games! I’m sick of seeing it. It’s bogus anyway. Who’s with me? Death to the sinker!
The thing is it's not a sinker .... sinker ball is just like a 2s fastball used more grip with deadly last second drop... in the game sinker is like a 12/6 102mph curvball muted with invert slider it's ridiculous but ... it's a game the only thing I would like in the future is to stop SDS for calling this game a baseball simulation ....

I actually did time with a guy who tried bunting. I've seen some Baaaad people in this World.

I’m ready to ban the low and inside out of the strike zone sinker that’s constantly being crushed for a home run. I don’t mind giving up a hit on a pitchers pitch but it defies physics that a pitch with downward motion low and out of the zone is getting crushed like that.

I could be wrong, but I swear the sinker starts going wrong direction, then does a right turn and goes the opposite direction!! That’s some killer English on the ball! That ain’t right.

My two gripes about the sinker is 1) it comes out of the hand like a breaking ball but snaps the speed of a fastball. 2) and this grinds my gears when guys spam it high and you are ready for it the high sinker doesn’t get punished like it should. A high sinker is a mistake pitch just like a high curve or change yet the AI does not treat it as such and many a times it’s still a ground to SS or 2B instead of a line drive etc.
If the high sinker was treated like a mistake pitch a lot less people would be throwing it.

we had shirts that said, "we don't bunt, we hit homers".

Agreed!
I remember the announcer in Triple Play Baseball saying 'that Sinker didn't sink!' Obviously, the mistake was crushed when he said that! -

It's the META, right? Throw a slurve high because it "tunnels" well with other pitches.
That's not playing baseball; that's playing MLBtS.
