Lolllll
😂
I’m a noob and have sucked at MLB23 so far. I watched a couple of other guy’s videos - one was a blowhard interested in hearing himself and selling merch and the other guy was ok. YOUR video and presentation style are perfect - you gave your tips and didn’t talk for 20 mins. Thanks and bunch…and my mother likes gingers… :)
😂
Thanks I was only hitting .250 with salvy but after taking your advice on starting the pci in the middle compared to the top of the zone I improved so much with him
“Watch the hat” that little adjustment changed my life. Lol. Seriously though I still need more patience but that little tid bit improved my hitting. Thanks.
Your hitting tips literally helped me in a matter of seconds I used to always just spin my PCI around before the pitch I stopped and tried what you said and also tried the looking at pitchers hat to see the ball better, next two games I played popped the fuck off.
Nice tips. Patience is key. I like starting my PCI all the way up dead middle. For whatever reason it's hard for me to go up on the stick starting from center. Really hard for me to catch heat up in the zone like that. I have no issues slapping low in the zone either corner, but I'd rather hit a ball high in the zone, so I start my PCI there. Also not having that hard stop point in the middle keeps me from having the "why didn't my PCI move?" Problem. I also slowly drag down to the pitchers arm slot as he's winding up. This is kind of like a load shift for me to help me get on time and in rhythm. Subtle controlled movement with the stick on The Show is probably the hardest thing to do consistently on any game I've ever played, but if you can do it, it feels so different than when you were struggling trying to snap the stick in the direction you want to to go and sweating profusely. Also the only view settings I will play on are zone and zone 2. I usually play with zone, but if I'm having trouble picking up balls down and out of the zone, I will go to zone 2 until I can get my shit together. It's crazy that this game will have you having real issues that hitters actually have in baseball from time to time.
Dude you are spot on with these tips bro ive played alot of mlb the show and wverything you have mentioned i have tried so many times but you was able to narrow everything down to a tee you are damn good and spot on with the tips i know from experience good shit bro
I'll definitely testing your tips, man I've been so frustrated cuz I got good swings but not many hits. thanks very much
Thanks man. As a guy whos been playing for years but in an attempt to go from average player to above average player, ive totally farked my hitting, i needed to go back to basics. These tips are a great place to start. Cheers!
I got so mad one day at how much I sucked I uninstalled the game. I sat down to bang out some moments and the 1st one I was doing I just could not get done. It was definitely timing and poor PCI placement work. I went to videos like my mans video right here, and have Kontrol Freaks and its so much better. I do the little movement in the middle and watch the ball out of the pitchers hand. I use Strike Zone 2 for preference, Ill try Strike Zone but I think I tried it and settled on 2. I think the next step is getting a monitor but am not sure how to set one up.
Watched your video last year. Completely changed my game. Ty
Was struggling a lot with batting. Saw this video, first game in road to the show I did a 3 RBI home run. The looking at the hat and the thumb tips are game changing.
Great tips having my thumb lower on the stick is a huge help because I typically have it right in the middle and for me it just felt like I was taking too long to move the pci and I couldn’t get my timing down
You know this video is so helpful I’ve taking the next step in my game my pitching as always been solid but the batting as always failed me I consistently would win games 2-1 1-0 and etc but taking your tips I’ve been putting up a lot more runs but am starting to struggle on HOF
im newer to the mob series so im not very good and have been struggling with pci control and hitting in general and the tips and switching to strike zone is a game changer.
Literally the best batting tutorial I've seen. Thank you for the tips!
Loved the video. Curious to try out the thumb placements, because that’s a big issue of mine is “slamming” it up or down
The bigger the meatball.. the harder I slam
Zoom camera isn’t too bad if you struggle with timing like I do, it allows me to see the hitters leg and judge when to swing. I’ve used strike zone before but always seem to do better with zoom. I also use a Elite Series 2 controller, not that it makes a difference but I get the longer thumbsticks, which allow more control of the pci. I’m not amazing at the game, but I’m decent. I have my moments, but I still enjoy the game.
Thank you, I needed these tips. Keep up the great content.
Thank you for giving great and helpful fundamentals, even without a monitor I feel like I can at least compete now.
this helped me transition from timing to zone in literally less than 3 hours so i'm no longer a scumbag anymore, thank you so much
I started holding my controller square to the screen instead of in my lap, using a small cushion and it’s helped me so much
Thank you, very helpful. I’m not sure which default hitting camera is used, but it’s trash. Hitting was much… less difficult lol. It was like stepping in the box again when I changed the settings. Tried “strike zone” and “strike zone high”, the latter is my go-to.
this was by far the best hitting tips video and i watched them all
Great video! It's already been said but picking up the ball from hat has made a huge difference. My hitting is night and day by just making that one adjustment. I'm and old 56 year old too bastard too.
Love the video. I thank you on the highest note.
Thx bro this helped a lot
thanks bro i’ve been so bad but now it might change👍
What do you think about kontrol freeks. I use the galaxy's. High rise for pci mid for pitching
Insanely helpful 🤙🏻🤙🏻
Best hitting tips ive ever heard to be honest! Great work!
Love the vid only thing I suggest the bat PCI
Best hitting tips. i’m enjoying just hitting everything even if it’s a foul ball now lol. thanks again
The looking at pitcher hat advice was sooo good at first i was super early on pitches then i jus started goin off
I prefer SZ2 as the PCI is large enough for me to know where I’m barreling the ball, and at the same time I don’t have to make as many movements with the PCI
That thumb placement tip is clutch. I just ran somebody off the sticks you the goat for that one
Starting out in zone after years of bad habits is hard. Thank you for your insight and advice. I will use your methods!! Keep up the great vids and good luck on your seduction journeys.
Flicking the PCI like that is a rhythm thing for me. I’ve always hit a lot better for whatever reason when I do it. And starting your PCI in a specific place is something I do as well. I’m a little confused as to your reasoning as you stated for your first two strikes you’re (generally) looking for specific locations so it wouldn’t matter if you set your PCI up and in a little because you aren’t swinging at anything else; 2 strikes makes perfect sense because you’re not looking for your pitch you’re looking to fight. Overall good video!
I like starting my PCI low and in and looking to react to everything else, but i move around my PCI alot depending on the players tendencies.
@@EE-bg1de do you anchor it?
Helpful bro coming over from Madden the thanks !
Thanks man I’m a Nintendo player and it’s hard to play I am getting a PlayStation soon this really helped thank you 😭
Dude the hitting tips are golden
Outlier was my nemesis last year and I have struggled since 21 to hit the 100mph+ fastballs. This year, I made the switch to strikzone from strikezone 2. I have been destroying fastballs and outlier has been no issue. However, the downside has been because strikezone doesn't show as much below the plate or outside the strikezone my whiff rate on backdoor sliders/cutters and low off speed has been terrible. Every off speed pitch looks like it will be a strike until it darts out of strikezone seemingly at last minute. Any advice? Your hat trick has been a big help
Go to practice mode against backdoor sliders, cutters outside the strike zone. 10 minutes before you play a game, will make a huge difference.
usually what i do is just go into custom practice and just track the ball with my pci for 10-15 minutes. dont swing at all just work on seeing the ball and moving your thumb. usually subconsciously helps me with determining balls/strikes
Thank you for your service
thanks for the tips, i do all that except the thumb on bottom analog slightly. i will try. Also just to say i do fling my analog around in a circle before every pitch for 2 reasons. 1. kind of superstition 🤣🤣. i hv hit better. also to get my thumb set and a bit of exercise for my thumb haha prob sounds dumb but just saying that is kind if a reason also its a big habit, i hv been doing for a long time haha.. love the video though thank u
Thank you for the tips
What are you thoughts on the precision rings?
Great vid
I’ve noticed that being early is the best on middle in and being late is the best for outside but obviously perfect perfect is the absolute best but if ur timing is off the two are the best
If you have to run out and buy a monitor to be good at a game vs a 60in TV that i already own is the game actually worth it?
Idk irl I do what u say about hunting fastball but in the show I’m always early so I sit off speed and if I see fastball I can always get it
Taking the first two pitches or taking till 2 strikes was the best adjustment I’ve made on BR. Thanks bro
dont take both tho bro. out of 2 take one or the other
@@v0lium so only take one strike?
1-1 is a ball i feel like 80% of the time, i always say to myself, "watch out for trash". Even First pitch i have the same mentality.
@@EE-bg1de so should i take 2 pitches everytime?
I hit better in 0-2 counts I can careless if I have two strikes
I’m doing great with directional I keep it pointed towards left field and then time the pitch
Me too online I’m 14-5 only using directional. PCI is great but I feel like I got the directional thing going for me.
This really emphasizes how good this game is. All your advice is pretty much what Ted Williams always preached.
Just got MLB TS 23 and im confused , everytime i see some kind of batting guide people have this bat icon appear in tyhe square. How do you get that ? I can get a good or perfect him on ball with the timing but im finding they can become foul balls ect because i hit them at the wrong angles .
Very helpful I’m going to apply today, cause I am a free swinger
I've started playing on Switch a few days ago, and I keep dropping my PCI on every. single. pitch. I'm great at hitting curveballs, but nothing else atm, haha
the ball do be coming out the hat tho... Nice video. Nice voice!
Do I have to hold my left thumb on the stick the whole time to hit the pitch??
This definitely has made me a better hitter watching the hat then the ball
How do I get that bat icon when I’m in the batters box?
Hit a home run the next at bat after “looking at the pitchers hat” lol great tip 🫡
So are you pressing power swing or just normal swing?
DUDE YOU ARE GOATED I AM NOW A HITTING GOD
For a guy who finesses people with baserunning this is one of the better hitting tutorials ive seen.
Even tho this is late this helped me so much I used to swing at evreything but ever since I started being more paiteint and waiting for ptiches I can hit I went from high 300 to 700 thank you so much idk if it’s been luck skill or both but this has deftinley help me jump a gap
I got way better by using timing hitting and fish eye . It gives you more time to see the pitch . I'm not looking to be great in leagues. Just win more than I lose on online rated . I will change over to pci when I get timing down .
Dumb Question...When playing with friends, i keep playing in Seattle where the allstar game is, WHY? HOW DO I CHOOSE MY HOME STADIUM? anyone HELP PLEASE
Lol i love throwing fastballs down the middle every now and then it throws people completely off guard lol
You’re the first person to mention monitor being hitting tips. As a TV player I always felt that was holding me back but now I’m sure about it.
I know this is late but certain tvs are good with game mode on I made 600+ on a tv
I switched my view to zoom and my timing is way better, works for me.
I use the zoom camera. Do just fine. Strike zone is just too zoomed in and takes away some of the experience for me. I actually see the ball better with more context. Zoom is nice. I'm sure being on a 1440p 165 hz monitor helps too.
Is a monitor better than a lg c1 tho? Pretty sure that tv has low refresh rate
How do I hit with just the buttons? I can't hit shit and keep getting struck out. Everytime I swing it says too late, too early. It's like you have to wait til the ball is right up on you but it's still not perfect. Shit is annoying!
Lowkey subbed because of that ginger joke on the sponsors 😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂
For me I be looking at the wall then as soon as I see the pitch box disappear I re look at the pitch dinger everytime 😂
Or should i ask how many pitches do u take
I swear online mode is delayed a bit for timing. Everyone says to go into custom practice mode to get better but custom practice is not delayed and the timing is different than when playing online. Idk maybe I’m just weird but I feel like it’s delayed a lot
Facts bro. You can see the pitches a lot better!
Sounds like either an old gen issue or a shitty internet issue
Ofcourse it’s delayed. Latency bro.
Every game is when playing online. Latency is a son of a b…..
@@deyvi5251 and that’s what my point is. Practicing on that practice mode is offline and the delay is much snappier and instant. I don’t think it’s a great tool to practice because online mode is not as snappy and it’s delayed a lot more. It’s night and day difference.
The Monitor is a major key, that upgrade from a TV is always unmatched. Huge difference
What batting type is this
Where I can Find that joystick cap ??
I’ve never been a fan of PCI, I just use the hit buttons and up the hitting level to Allstar. Timing is everything in that mode
Claw machine is how I learned pci and I think it’s a good starting point but hitting 100 can be harder holding the stick that way in my experience
Make a pitching tips video
The hat trick has turned me from a noob to prime Aaron Judge
What I did to get a batting average of .688 was using something called sliders😊
finally some actual tips instead of just 'Use zone hitting and play the game loads'
How many pitches should i wait take 2 strikes or take one
It fependsy
You didn’t link the kontrol freeks u have
Honestly I’m 14-5 using directional alone…. So only using pci is ok for some but not all. Just use what you’re comfortable with and follow everything else he says.
The pinch works great for me lol
I use the hat too 😂
Where’s the link
If it’s playful plays me and looks for sumn up I throw everything low if it’s up inside top
It’s annoying with the CPU gets a double on a pitch inside the plate and at their elbow
Thank you for giving mental hitting tips. No one does that!
Why a monitor over say a 65 inch TV?
So Video Game people. How far away is the new VR homeroom experience and MLB the Show merged together in a quality way?
Tips vs cpu?
How do you have the baseball pci
Assuming you mean the bat, it’s under the pci center settings
This video got me horned up ;) Miss you buddy!
Monitor is by far the biggest thing that changed my game.
That fastball that was “too low” was PERFECT. They did break down the science of why lefty’s prefer pitches down. I believe it came to dominant hand positioning.
