RS vs. Event hitting

Are the settings different if both RS and event games are all star? Was getting lots of hits and home runs in the event and rarely striking out, now in RS I have 3 hits in 2 games with a plethora of strikeouts... seems way off

Totally agree events are just easier to hit in for some reason

I think it’s the quick counts, they make people throw more hittable pitches and you are more likely to swing a lot more

Been an issue all year pal. No idea why they play so differently.

Thanks, got Verlander easily.. thought I figured out hitting, but nope, back to being a sh*tshow at the plate!

I think they program in different sliders for events. I have always hit better ( on same difficulty) in events

Lol, these posts are all too relatable. I prestiged 6 dope hitters in events and hit about .500 with Belli. Then scored a total of 2 runs in 2 RS games

One point that does make events easier to hit in is the fact that people don't worry as much about hitting corners and just pitching well in general in events so you get a lot more pitches that are easier to hit opposed to ranked seasons.

The pitching stamina starts lower in events, and decreases at a faster rate, because the games are usually 3-6 innings or quick counts.

Spot on. I think this has a lot to do with it

Yeah I’ve noticed this all year as well. BR plays much more smoothly than ranked too. It’s strange.

I actually look like I know what I'm doing in Events. In RS, I look like... not... ummm... good.

I noticed that too.

Hitting seem more smooth in events compared to ranked seasons. Any reason as to why people ?

Maybe they use dedicated servers for events and peer to peer for ranked and the connection is better? I’ve noticed the exact same thing.

It's always like this. I think they juice hitting in the events cuz its less innings so they need to squeeze 9 innings worth of hits and runs into shorter amount of time.

They 100% edit the sliders for events.
