Yeah I'm with you on that. Is there anyway to have zone hitting without the cursor or whatever? Thanks

One animation that has been bothering me in these vids is when it shows the players clapping.....doesn't look like the hands are close to touching. Not a game killer, but just...awkward. A thing like that won't keep me from buying the game though

Well, you can have batter's eye on and zone hitting off, or vice versa. Or both on, both off.

I have noticed that a cutter is blue, a fastball is green, and a curve is red. However, I would like to know if there is a way to turn on the color indicator while the pitch is being delivered and not waiting until after it is grabbed by the catcher. Does that make sense?

Yes, it makes perfect sense. I'd like to know this, too. It doesn't make much sense to know what the pitch was AFTER it's already hit the catcher's mitt.

can you have it with the swing stick off too? Example would be instead of the swing stick just be able to hit using the buttons on the controller?
