Original release notes
• All-new ballplayers: detailed 3D players at the plate and in the field, with a bat that clears the helmet on every swing. • Training Camp: guided batting, pitching and fielding lessons with real practice pitches. Everyone completes it once before their next live game, and you can come back any time. • Pitch from the mound: pick a pitch, tap your spot, then press Release when the ring is tight. Aiming never throws by accident. • Clearer batting timing: tap as the ball reaches the HIT marker, with three sound ticks counting down to contact. The strike zone outline now matches the rules. • Key Moments waits for you at every big spot and never skips a ninth-inning chance. • Fielders bend for grounders, and every play finishes before the camera cuts away. • Better layouts at the largest text sizes, timing assistance actions, and smoother pause and resume.
