    Remember when I said pitching is broken af, less than a week after release of the game? Yeah I remember. Thankfully people are catching on.

    Also saw this earlier, not surprised as I knew I had pitches missing the PAR on perfect input

    They need to shrink the PAR sizes, on HOF it’s so [censored] hard to hit a corner with almost any pitch

    What also annoys me, I’m desperate for a strike, I place a pitch towards the corner of the plate with the PAR having the SMALLEST area grazing the corner/outside the zone. Time and time again with perfect release, the pitch misses for a ball. So frustrating

    They completely [censored] PPP this year. People complained about how OP it was last year (rightfully so to a degree) and in typical SDS fashion, they over compensated and now PPP is way too random with where pitches end up versus your input

    Yeah I completely agree. A slight nerf would've been fine but as usual they weren't able to find balance.

    I absolutely agree Raes, I was just gonna make a post about this too lol. The PAR itself is just a flat out lie. It either is down the middle or just missing outside the zone no in between for me.

    Yeah it's total bs. Some guys on Twitter are mentioning the 0.02 early on the release, but if THAT is what dictates this location which is essentially giving up a moonshot each and every time, that's a huge problem. Not to mention they said that 0.00 to 0.03 is considered a perfect. That ball didn't touch any part of the PAR.

    It's def off par, but that picture makes it look worse then it is/was

    Also forgive me if I show a lack of enthusiasm about this discovery, but it's been a thing for awhile. Pulse had a par system and it always was a lie, this isn't something new

    As others have noted isn’t the pitch suppose to travel through the zone and if batter didn’t swing pitch would land where intended?

    Good point. Didn’t think of it that way. The batter coulda been so far ahead of the ball it was a foul or a swig and miss. Did the person who posted this have evidence it was a bomb or a hit?

    Maybe a double in bottom of the first with Ramirez?

    That's a great pitch if the ball actually goes there.

    After thinking about this I don’t think I have a problem with it. The ball has to travel through the strike zone to get to that point and maybe the hitter had a PP swing while it was traveling through. Also, you have to take into account the RNG element as well as the “stats” of the pitcher and hitter.

    I agree. It was a slurve, but still. I saw the guy was early on a cutter. Guess he thought the dude would still be looking out for fastball. No way I'm throwing a slurve belt high to begin with.

    I bet over half of my homers given up are from "floating" off speed pitches that aren't even close to where they should have gone.

    I would be open to the argument that the pitch went through the zone if the timing on it was very early or even early. But it literally says good timing, and it's closer to the green than the yellow (hence it says good and not just early). That means that the pitch wasn't caught in the flight, the pitch was hit at the location where it ended up being.

    With all due respect to that poster, I read through that post thinking he is probably not a very good hitter since he is voicing his frustration about not getting any pitches down the middle - so if you read between the lines that means that's what he was looking for and didn't get it. The pitch I pointed out on Twitter was also not down the middle, but will be crushed by every decent player who isn't just looking for pitches down the middle.

    I don't think that's true at all, just because it was good timing on the hitter side doesn't mean that's where the ball ends up being. It was still to far out for that to be true.

    We can even tell that by a picture in the twitter thread, the ball isn't yet to where it will land.

    Doesn't the hitting feedback register the location of where contact is made? Since the timing was good, that spot is accurate to where the pitch would end up using that logic.
