Pitch by Pitch Display

Bad News Barnes · 04-07-2026, 04:37 PM

I can't find how to activate the widget that graphically shows pitch location during each at bat, as well as each pitch-type and speed, per batter. I can't imagine that this feature would be eliminated, but I can't seem to find out how to activate it.

Look on the Options Widget (top right) for the Show/Hide pitch location widget.

Thanks - but that option isn't activated in my game. The show/hide options of spray chart, out of town scoreboard,etc. options work fine, but the one you indicate, as well as the button directly to its right, are dark and inactive. Is there some other option at another level that will activate these two options for me? I use Modern 3D view.

I've been playing OOTP for years, and I can't live without this pitch information. OOTP26 and earlier versions showed this automatically.

Did you unlock the widgets before trying to open them? It's in the Options menu, under widgets.

Ok - I was able to activate the pitch location widget, but it doesn't show the list of pitches that includes pitch type and speed. That info for the most recent pitch is shown above the game score, but not the usual list of all the pitches in the prior at bat. I usually play "quick at bat", rather than pitch by pitch. Thanks for your persistent help - it's much appreciated.

It turns out that when the game was restarted, and I activated the pitch location widget, this time the listing of pitches was also there. Thanks again for your help.

I chart all my teams pitches. I keep a notebook for each of my pitchers with their entire pitch history. I think you are going to love this feature.
