2.Tips
-Hit up/up right more of chance of a homerun then up.
-If u are using pitchers like Kevin Brown and Curt Schelling. Use
Sinker, Changeup then finish it off with a Changeup again or a
Fastball.
-If u are using pitchers like Roger Clemens and John Smoltz. Use
Splitfinger, Splitfinger then finish it off with a Splitfinger,
Curve or Slider.
-If u are using any other pitchers with Slider, Curve, Changeup.
Use Curve first, 2nd use Slider or Curve recommend then finish
it off with a Slider or Changeup Silder recommend.
-Using just average players or not so good players. Hit grounders
or bunts they can't hit homeruns.
-With Good and the best players don't try to hit homeruns all
the time it isn't worth it too many outs.
-Use an Aggressive throw, instead of a normal throw. Aggressive is
faster.
-If you have a base runner, on 1st and a pitcher that can't hit bunt it
with a pitcher, so the 1st baseman is on 2nd and the computer will go for
the pitcher first.
