I've only played analog for both pitching and hitting for the past several years, to me it feels the most tactile and most rewarding when successful -- just pushing a button doesn't feel connected to the gameplay at all. However, I find that as I'm trying to grind the lack of a PCI is probably holding me back since I have no control over where my sweet spot is when hitting.

Any other pure analog hitters out there able to be successful at Legend/HOF or competitive in online play?

Any tips that you can offer to overcome the lack of PCI when in pure analog (I understand that you can choose that as an option but I'm specifically inquiring about those players who have PCI turned off as well)?

45 year old dad of 2, started with Atari Baseball and most baseball games since then every year. I didn't see it mentioned here but Old TIme Baseball for PC was one of my favourites, you could play virtually any season with relevant era gameplay (example dead ball era) and it had some of the classic stadiums. Baseball Stars was also a favourite.

I play The Show daily both franchise mode and RTTS, haven't really gotten into online play because I assumed that I wouldn't be competitive but a 40+ league is interesting.
