How do you guys see the release of the ball?

I have a 27" monitor. Sit about 3-4 feet away from the monitor and wear my glasses when I play.

I cannot see the release of the ball from the pitchers hand. At least not fast enough to tell what kind of pitch I'm looking at from the get go.

It's been a while since I was on a diamond but I bet I could still pick up the release point and pitch type today (hitting it would be a different story lol) but in this game? I'm lost yet so many hitting tip videos suggest to get good at this.

I usually try to see the trajectory of a ball. Based on the pitcher's pitches I can see the trajectory of a ball early on and react to it. If it comes from the hand straight, it's a fastball. If it has an arc then it's some sort of off speed and depending on the height of the arc the type of off speed being thrown. Its all about reacting quick enough tho. I play on a projector and I've been able to make World Series so its possible

@aaronjw76 I’ve been playing Mlb the show since 05 and this is by far the hardest one to hit in. Idk if I just suck now but I usually win double the times I lose in every year of the show but this year I’m barely over 500.

I was the same like u but I've been able to adapt and adjust to the game. It just takes practice and getting comfortable before u can compete really well.
