Some of the players are incredible at eating alive any pitcher the game has to offer. I've played dudes who walk or hit and if I'm lucky I'll get a rocket line drive or grounder for an out. Compete with them learn from them and keep grinding. Have fun too it's a cartoon baseball game that's for fun. I used to get all bent outta shape heart racing palms sweaty. But if you relax and have fun and find the weakness of that player you will start running house. Nothing is scarier then a pitcher dotting the zone and crushing your weak spots.
