Pitch it over the plate

D-BacksJosh · 06-27-2011, 03:08 PM

Out of frustration I wished that there was a 'get it over' pitch button, maybe this button could be used only once per at bat and would reduce the control and movement of the pitchers pitch as a penalty, but I can't stand walks and it makes me want to put my pitcher in a full nelson when he pitches 2 straight 3-0 walks and walks in a run and then you replace him with a reliever who has fantastic control and he pitches a 3-0 walk in run for the other team to take the lead. I would rather the opposing team score runs with a base hit it is a whole lot easier to stomach!

new to the series, but can you not adjust this in the strategy screen?

Yeah you can adjust the bases on balls modifier, I have mine on .800 for the rookie league which seems to have an inordinate amount of walks when left to the default 1.000 setting.

I assume that my pitcher is always trying to get it over in 3 ball counts unless I have asked them to pitch around.
