    I have a serious question.
    Why is it impossible to swing and miss? Is it the players contact? Very early on a bouncing ball foul ball. Very early period throw me off like it’s impossible to get a swing and miss. 8-9 pitch at bats happen at least 3x a game. I’m wondering if it’s Me

    It's because it's timing based. So on lower skill levels as long as your timing is any where from just early tomorrow just late your pci doesn't even need to be in the same area code. That's why when you actually square up a pitch or at least have your pci on it, you dont get a foul ball it goes in play. SDS either can't fix it or refuse to, that's why if your oppent uses contact swing on every single pitch they end up with 40+ fouls at the end of 9 innings. Which before someone says fouls are part of baseball 30 fouls in 9 innings is the average for MLB teams combined in 9 innings.

    @Rhyno1986_XBL the timing thing is actually what I needed to understand. My last opponent swung very early 95% of the time. Didn’t take one pitch but put up 4 runs. That’s literally my only problem with online play.

    Unfortunately it's been a problem for years. They tried making pci shrinking on sliders and breaking pitches help, but all it did was make people spam those pitches and punish people for squaring them up. All you can do is give feed back to SDS (my experience if your not a top player or streamer they don't care) and either not play or just keep trying.
