Pitching I'm stuggling like mentioned above - the pitch usually goes nowhere even close to where I wanted it to go...even when I stop the meter pretty well.

I don't know....all of these "next gen" baseball games pi$$ me off with their slow speed and uneeded complexity. It's sad the best baseball games remain the old ones -- Baseball Stars, Baseball Simulator 1.000, etc.

Haha. Oddly, my two favorite baseball games are MLB 07: The Show (the last one I bought), which is very realistic, and the first Ken Griffey game on SNES which is very unrealistic. RBI Baseball on NES isn't far behind though.

i dont find it too hard at all to tell if its a ball or strike. watch it all the way out of his hand. find the release point...

Yeah, I agree. It's not too bad.

If nothing else works, follow this simple strategy:

Always take the first pitch. Most pitchers will not throw a strike to start a count.

3DO came out with High Heat 2000 with Curt Shilling on the cover. That was the best along with Triple Play 98
