There is a way to glitch him into LF, and have 6 starters.

@yardem-hane_xbl said in Pitches changed:

The pitches can be changed in the loadout. Every time you change the archetype in your loadout, the pitches are reset to the basic three.

which is a dumb mechanic.

Had the same issue, my son played this before I did and changed the hitting to directional and I assumed that was the default setting. Had a lot of the issues you mentioned too. As noted above, once I swapped to the pci I was far better off. I still struggle but it feels far easier to make solid contact, especially on the constant barrage of low offspeed pitches everyone tends to throw

Nothing you can do. It’s cooked into the AI logic that as a young pitcher they are locking you into a pitch count or inning count. It’s frustrating because I should have 9 complete games with 8 shutouts at this point in this particular save file.

Same here. I couldn't believe when I saw this tread, cant hit [censored] anymore like wtf Playing AS

@rathanian_psn said in Pitching Wins:

Simplified answer.... as a starting pitcher you can take the loss at any time. But to win you have to pitch at least 5 complete inning and have the lead when you stop being the active pitcher

So for example,

If you pitch 6 innings and the score is 0-0 when you are replaced, you can not get the win unless your team takes the lead before the relief pitcher becomes the active pitcher (ie you finish the 6th and your team scores in the next inning before the relief pitcher comes on in relief if you then you can get the win)

If you have the lead when pulled, you can get the win so long as your team does not give up the lead at any point. I.e. you have a 3-0 lead after 8 innings and the manager pulls you for your closer. They give up 3 runs to tie the game. Even if your team wins in extra innings because they lost your lead, you won’t get the win.

Hope this helps

Yeah helps a lot, thanks for the giving me the simple answer, still unsure about a lot of baseball rules it’s super complicated for seemingly no reason in a lot of places.

No one knows for sure if its intended, bugged, or what the reason is. No one has been able to add a pitch. Hopefully they comment soon and patch a lot of stuff there are just so many bugs right now.
