What is the definition of perfect
-
To SDS it a 380 foot flyball that doesnt get to the warning track with 125 power Juan Soto. Perfect
-
No. It’s when the ball i[censored] squarely. It has nothing to do with where the ball ends up.
-
You only have half of it,the term is perfect contact.
perfect contact has never = perfect result. -

So you're saying input in a competitive gamemode shouldn't matter and results should be left to rng which doesn't even seem to rely on player stats?

No. The results are left to the physics of baseball. The pitch, the velocity, the angle, where the ball i[censored] on the bat (tip to handle), etc.

To me, in the show it means NOTHING. I don't expect every perfect to be a massive home run, or even a hit, but how can you call it a "perfect" contact and you get, wimpy grounders, weak popups, and routine fly [censored].
I would prefer that my "perfect out" at least LOOK like I squared it up. When you hear that massively loud crack of the bat and get a weak grounder to the shortstop that is not acceptable to me. If you are going to rip me off at least put some effort into it.
Perfect should be depending on the players ability and the pitch type/location:
Good results - A monster home run, a hard line drive that hits the gap or down the line to the corner.
Bad results - a rocket right at someone, a foul ball deep down the line, a hard fly ball that someone has to race to the track for, or an extremely hard grounder that eats up an infielder and depending on their reaction/fielding will be picked up and throw me out or ends up with me on first base.
Telling me I made perfect contact with wimpy grounders, weak popups, and routine fly [censored] is telling me the exact opposite.

You're thinking that perfect means THE perfect hit, which it isn't. It is A perfect hit. A perfect grounder, a perfect liner, a perfect fly ball, etc. Besides the physics of baseball, you also have to take into account defenders. A perfect hit isn't alway[censored] in the gap, sometimes it i[censored] at someone. When they flash perfect on the screen, it has nothing to do with where the baseball lands, that is all physics. It has to do with how the ball i[censored].
If you hit the ball squarely and it is high in the zone and your swing is up, you can get a popup. If you hit an inside pitch squarely, it can go foul, etc.
Personally, I think they shouldn't flash Perfect when a ball i[censored] because there are too many people that don't understand that hitting a round ball with a round bat is one of the hardest things to do and it doesn't come out well very often. That is why a player that makes contact where the ball doesn't end up in a defender's glove and is between the lines is not common. If a player can do it once or twice every game, they are considered an outstanding player. There are a minimum of 27 batters that stand in the box during a 9-inning game. A team usually has less than 10 hits. It's pretty common to have 3-5 hits in a game.
My suggestion is that if it bothers a player that their "perfect perfect" doesn't land in the parking lot, they need to learn to ignore that little box in the bottom left corner.
There are some great books about the physics of baseball. They haven't made me a better hitter (in fact, I stink at it), but at least I understand what is going on when the game is played. What's even more important to remember is that this is just a video game. SDS has to balance the game to be both fun for the novice player and challenging for the expert player. Not an easy task.

So the physics of baseball says frank Thoma[censored]s a [censored] high fastball as Pete rose would say, results in a 390ft flyout, perfect contact in a VIDEO GAME should result in perfect results 100% of the time. Imagine you greened in nba 2k and it only went in 50% of the time. It would be a garbage game, like mlb the show currently is

It's not labeled as perfect results, though. If you want arcade results, play an arcade game.

Now she is what you call perfect! I always thought Ms.10 gave her a run for her money though.

Wilma Flintstone my personal favorite

2% of swings qualify as perfect, 5.5% of [censored] put into play qualify as perfect, and 98% of perfect contact will be fair while the other 2% will be foul.
-
Don't forget pitch type, user input from the pitcher etc.
Unlike soccer, football, basketball, hockey etc, the P2P inputs for baseball are more complicated.
There will always be a numerical value assigned to swings and results because of both user inputs. Inherently, you'll never have a hit 100% of the time even if you process perfect input each swing. Perfect timing, location etc. You just can't.

And to answer the original question.
Leeloo Dallas.
