Tips on facing a knuckleballer?
-
I am finishing up the USA map in 24, and what the Rockies didn't take in the West, the Padres did. I have four games against them (at minimum), and I'm drawing Waldron and his knuckleball. Man, does that thing move around!
Any tips on hitting a knuckleball?
-
Everything that I've heard is that if it's high let it fly meaning try to hit it and if it's low let it go meaning don't try to hit it.

I will give this a try. Thank you.

Great advice @sbchamps17_NSW !!! I chased him out in the 1st after scoring five runs. Nice! (I'm still batting and only have one out).

Just pick a different pitcher and skip facing him all together

Heh, I did that one game and got Musgrove. Those are their two bottom pitchers on the roster. I don't remember facing a knuckleballer before the first game, so I decided to ask some advice and go for it.

I turn off zone hitting and use timing or directional when I face a knuckler
