    With zone hitting you can square up a fastball and get perfect perfect and it can still be an out ... Because it's baseball. Also with zone hitting you can hit a low pitch and get great results. With directional the pitch can be right down the middle and you swing good.. aka perfect timing.. and you pop it up. That happened to me multiple times when I feel I'm not seeing the ball well so switch to directional for a inning or so to track the ball better. I've played guys in BR that literally can hit anything in the zone and get great rewards for being so good at hitting. So I don't really understand your complaint. If you read the forums A LOT of people are having a hard time this year compared to years previous. But if the basis of your complaint here is that zone hitters are at a disadvantage than that's ludacris. What's your fantasy?

    This is always what irritates me about most of these complaint threads. "I hit perfect perfect and it went right to the outfielder for an out." or "I had an exit velocity of 109 and it gets caught WTF!".

    Yeah, that's the point of baseball. There are 9 guys in the field trying to defend against your hitting. The best hitters only get hits 30-33% of the time. More times than not, those are going to be hits but not always. The only thing you have complete control over is hitting it over the fence.

    I see this argument a lot....The best hitters only get hits 30-33% of the time...you can't use this argument because you are hitting with an entire team...not an individual player

    Huh??? The same percentage applies lol

    No it doesn't....you have players who go 5-5 4-5 And such...the individual and the team are not the same %

    why is it that people who dont use zone hitting get such an advantage on perfect perfect.

    Who are these peopke??

    If they use those options there’s no pci which literally means you dont have to track the pitch. So what is perfect perfect? Its only perfect. If you time it right you get a perfect perfect result. Look at the ball come off the bat. The results are different. im also here to explain it amongst the community. Everyone has their own opinions of what is best. Im just trying to get my two cents heard.

    There are many times you get good timing and a strike on directional. I use both depending on my mood. Mostly zone online and mostly directional vs CPU. To each their own.

    Directional hitting all day everyday because it feels like you’re really batting, like you’re in the box .... I can’t stand lining something up to hit, that’s arcade stuff ...

    But when your really playing don't you Have to the line the bat up with the ball?

    Yeah but it’s all timing... and putting the bat on the ball in that brief second you have ...

    So...it's timing AND aiming

    No, not aiming. The basics of hitting begin with a consistent swing plane and hours and hours of t-work. If someone has to “aim” to hit a ball off a tee, find a new game.

    You understand the concept of an average, right? Tim Anderson hit 335 last season to lead the majors. I bet he had a few games where he went 4-5 or 5-5 or hell even had 0 hits. And once again, you're the one controlling your players, all of them.

    How do you hit a pitch that's not in the middle of the zone? do you change your swing plane or just swing in the middle of the zone every pitch? Just asking for a friend..

    Directional hitting all day everyday because it feels like you’re really batting, like you’re in the box .... I can’t stand lining something up to hit, that’s arcade stuff ...

    But when your really playing don't you Have to the line the bat up with the ball?

    Yeah but it’s all timing... and putting the bat on the ball in that brief second you have ...

    So...it's timing AND aiming

    No, not aiming. The basics of hitting begin with a consistent swing plane and hours and hours of t-work. If someone has to “aim” to hit a ball off a tee, find a new game.

    How do you hit a pitch that's not in the middle of the zone? do you change your swing plane or just swing in the middle of the zone every pitch? Just asking for a friend..

    As long as you time it right you will hit the ball duhhhh

    So if I time my level swing right i'll hit the ball in the dirt?

    Don’t you know how baseball works?

    As long as you time it right you will hit the ball duhhhh

    Exactly you are now a baseball Sensei.

    So like I said...if I time my level swing right I'll hit a low ball in the dirt?

    As long as you time it right then yes. You can even close your eyes if you want.

    You do realize it is impossible to hit a ball below the level of your swing no matter how you time it

    With zone hitting you can square up a fastball and get perfect perfect and it can still be an out ... Because it's baseball. Also with zone hitting you can hit a low pitch and get great results. With directional the pitch can be right down the middle and you swing good.. aka perfect timing.. and you pop it up. That happened to me multiple times when I feel I'm not seeing the ball well so switch to directional for a inning or so to track the ball better. I've played guys in BR that literally can hit anything in the zone and get great rewards for being so good at hitting. So I don't really understand your complaint. If you read the forums A LOT of people are having a hard time this year compared to years previous. But if the basis of your complaint here is that zone hitters are at a disadvantage than that's ludacris. What's your fantasy?

    This is always what irritates me about most of these complaint threads. "I hit perfect perfect and it went right to the outfielder for an out." or "I had an exit velocity of 109 and it gets caught WTF!".

    Yeah, that's the point of baseball. There are 9 guys in the field trying to defend against your hitting. The best hitters only get hits 30-33% of the time. More times than not, those are going to be hits but not always. The only thing you have complete control over is hitting it over the fence.

    I see this argument a lot....The best hitters only get hits 30-33% of the time...you can't use this argument because you are hitting with an entire team...not an individual player

    Huh??? The same percentage applies lol

    No it doesn't....you have players who go 5-5 4-5 And such...the individual and the team are not the same %

    🤦

    I'm not explaining it right obviously lol

    No you're explaining what you think is right.. only, it's so very wrong...
    Sure, a hitter goes 5/5, then the next goes 0/5... And so on.. which makes an average for a team. It's how percentages work. And doesn't change how 30% of the time is still an elite hitter IRL, no different than a team.. it doesn't change.
