Man, I gotta tell you about this whole submarine pitcher thing in MLB The Show 24. It’s been a ride, let me say. So, I’ve been playing this game for a bit now, and I always like to try out the different styles, you know? Get a feel for everything. And I heard about these submarine pitchers, throwing underhand and all that. Sounds wild, right?
First off, I had to figure out how to even get a submarine pitcher on the mound. Turns out, you gotta hit up the Options button if you’re on PlayStation, or the Menu button on Xbox. That brings up this in-game menu. Then, it’s just a matter of going to the ‘Manager’ tab, and then ‘Bullpen’. From there, you can swap out your current pitcher for one of these funky submarine guys.
Now, let me tell you, actually using these guys is a whole different ball game. I started off thinking it would be a piece of cake. I mean, how hard could it be, right? Just toss the ball underhand. Boy, was I wrong. It takes some serious getting used to. You gotta relearn the timing, the aim, everything. It’s like starting from scratch almost. It’s not easy at all.
- Timing is Key: You really gotta get the timing down. It’s way different from regular pitching.
- Practice Makes Perfect: I spent hours just practicing. Seriously, hours.
- Mix It Up: Don’t just rely on the submarine style. Mix it up with regular pitches to keep the batters guessing.
One thing I learned pretty quick is that these submarine pitchers, like Loupe and Milner, they’re great for a few pitches, especially at the end of an inning to close things out. But, if you leave them in too long, batters start to figure them out. They’re easy to read if you overuse them, so you gotta be strategic.
Mixing Up Your Pitching Strategy
To really up your game in MLB The Show 24, just knowing how to throw a submarine pitch isn’t enough. You gotta understand the whole pitching game. Learn about the different types of pitches, when to use them, and keep an eye on your pitcher’s stamina and confidence. That stuff really matters. I started paying more attention to these details, and man, did it make a difference. If you wanna strike out them opponents, you gotta be smart about it. This game ain’t just about throwing hard; it’s about throwing smart, you know?
So, yeah, that’s my experience with submarine pitchers in MLB The Show 24. It’s been a challenge, but a fun one. I’m still learning, still practicing, but I feel like I’m getting the hang of it. It’s all about trying new things and not being afraid to mess up a little. That’s how you get better, right?
