    People who hold R2 are literally making the same argument as people who quick pitch. Both people are trying to dictate the pace of play in different ways.

    Not trying to dictate pace at all and only r2 now when the quick pitching starts. Never done it before but sick of it now. You can work as quick as you want if you come set. You can work as slow as you want as long as you come set.

    The only thing that I use R2 for is to check the pitcher stamina and confidence. I only use R2 once or twice a game.

    Funny ppl are in denial about quick pitching like a drug addict telling hisself this is his last hit. It's been an issues since they took balks out of the game, why do you think so many ppl use kenley. Jus another way for ppl to cheese through a game then ppl get upset when they try and combat chesse with cheese. Would love to see how many balks you quick pitching cheese players would get in a game if sds actually did the right thing and brings balks back

    How is using Kenley cheese? Because you can’t hit vs him? How about be ready to hit when you get in the box instead of holding R2?

    No i hit just fine. How about you come set before a pitch like a the rules of the game says you should. Oh sds doesn't make you, so you want to throw 10 pitches in 60 seconds?

    Yea let’s make it like real life. Every 9 inning game should take ~3 hours. Good idea chief.

    People getting quick pitching confused with pitching quick. 2 different things.

    Guarantee there’d still be R2ers galore even if they brought back balks. 100%

    Yes you are you’re trying to slow them down. That’s dictating pace. Doesn’t matter if they come set it’s not real life lmao it’s a video game.

    Not sure if this has been suggested yet but would you guys prefer them to have the pitches up like you were pressing R2 until the pitcher starts his windup then they disappear?

    good idea, but I honestly feel as if it would be really annoying to see it every pitch, I don't need to see it that often.

    The game within the game. Get in the opponent’s head.

    It’s part of baseball.

    Still, the pause timer should apply.

    They should take time off the Pause Timer if you hold it too long or multiple times per at bat.

    Go and practice vs Kenley on veteran so you can learn how to hit. Git gud as they say. Stop asking people to slow down so you can catch up.

    yeah pitchers do that in real life. Mark Burhele and Alex Wood just to name a few. I know mlb games are made to be longer than nba and nfl games, but spending an 45-minutes to an hour in a game, it doesn't have to be a sports game, is really long for a single match.

    Quick pitching is when pitcher selects pitch, from that point batter can no longer access pause menu, step out of box, or press R3. So that is a problem if batters can't use tools given them. Not slide stepping.

    But nobody wants to acknowlege that aspect of it. You know why b/c if they cry hard enough and get R2 taken out they know from that point forward there is no counter.

    Yet there are others talking about Kenley Jansen and slide stepping in this thread as "quick pitching". So it appears there are two distinct things that people are grouping together.
