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.
