    they tried to make it work last year and failed so it was removed.

    If they used day 1 hitting and the HR/9 stat from last year that may have been the perfect balance

    I was in the minority that liked HR/9 at the beginning last year. It made contact hitters actually relevant. Power bats could still wreck good HR/9 pitchers, just wasn't a home run derby like everyone wants.

    That's my point. HR/9 doesn't do anything and H/9 affects the PCI and the contact rating, so good H/9 theoretically will give up more home runs than bad H/9 because they induce more flyballs.

    Smaller pci makes it harder for your opponent to dot up your pitches

    Not sure I follow the logic here. Higher H/9 = smaller PCI = harder to achieve a good contact result/less margin for error. Where do you get the idea that H/9 increases fly ball rate?

    I'm having a hard time following also but I believe he means that if you actually square up the ball with the PCI more balls will leave the yard because the PCI is actually smaller and it will be mainly power in that contact. Whereas if the PCI is bigger it will induce more base hits but less fly balls. However on the flip side is that if the PCI is smaller it should be harder to get hits. This is too much for my brain. I still think the hardest part on Hall of Fame and legend is squaring up the ball with the speeds so I would still want my opponent to have the smallest PCI possible. however if Joey Gallo gets his PCI near the ball, more than likely it is leaving the yard because of his power. Most people cannot do that in the higher difficulties with ease so I see both sides of this.

    Yeah I mean if someone is amazing at putting the PCI on the ball, I feel like they're gonna get a lot of home runs regardless. Idk, my head hurts trying to figure this out

    It straight up says in the strategy guide that lower contact means more fly balls. Yes, there will obviously be more hits when the opponent has a bigger PCI, but the majority of DD runs are via the home run, and more fly balls means more home runs.

    H/9 does not affect pci size, that is k/9

    HR/9 maybe should I pack on perfect/perfect but should on all else. This game at one point was serviceable. It is kinda trash now

    H/9 does affect PCI size, the inner circle. K/9 affects the outer circle.

    I found it in RTTS but it’s probably in other offline modes as well. Pause the game and go to options or controls (not on game right now) and click strategy

    I believe that’s where it is? I know it’s the bottom setting tab on the page where you would change Your gameplay settings
