I've been struggling with hitting so this past Saturday I did some research and found a technique that seems to be working for me........ First, I guess low, fastball on every pitch. Typcially, if I guessed wrong on the pitch, then it will be some sort of off speed pitch which I'll be ready for. Second, if I guess wrong on the locatoion, there is a good chance it's going to be up in the zone. Whatever the current count is helps to determine if that pitch will be up or out of the zone...like a 0-2 count, you can pretty much count on it being out of the zone. As I've done this, I've become much more comfortable with hitting, and successful as well. At first, I would refrain from swinging on any pitches unless I guess right, but now I'm swinging more based the pitch history, etc. Another thing that might help is to turn on the plate coverage indicator, this will help you without a doubt. This game is very rewarding when you start ripping singles up the middle or doubles down the line, it's where you really start to feel the authenticity of the gameplay.

HR Rios.......good signs.......

Just realized we have a seperate thread for the game so I'll ask again....... For those who have both 09 and 10, is 10 worth the uprgarde?? My primary concerns are the graphics and gameplay, are these much of an upgrade from 09? Not really into franchise mode, and all that.

Vegas Baby! Best thing about marrying a teacher is you always get a spring break.

For those who have purchased MLB 10 The Show.........how much better is it then 09? I have 09 and am thinking I should just update rosters. Any info would be great!

As much attention to detail this game has, why can they not get the grass at the cell correct? Ergh!

Someone please post some pics of the Sox and the Cell in the new game......it happens here every year when the game comes out! It's usually enough to get me to buy.

Damn, that really sucks, that was about the only thing wrong last year with the cell........it's a pretty big mess up IMO

QUOTE (smalls2598 @ Feb 24, 2010 -> 03:21 PM) Which is the best iPhone app to use Twitter? I have an iPhone but do not have a specific app for Twitter.....I find it best to just turn on the SMS option for each person that I follow, that way any time they tweet, it comes right to the phone.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Feb 3, 2010 -> 09:38 AM) We used this company for our DJ: http://www.stylemattersdjs.com/ Guests were blown away by how good he was. The thing is though, I need a DJ who can speak polish and english, and can satisfy both crowds.....I checked out their website and didn't see any of the deejays fullfiling this requirement....I'm sure they are all great though...

Since I get all the other information on Soxtalk I need I figured I would try this too........ I'm getting married in July and have a fiance who is freaking out because the DJ and Limo are my responsibilities and I don't have any booked yet.... So, it's a polish/american wedding so I would like a DJ who could satisfy both, if anyone knows anyone please feel free to post. Next is a good limo service, the wedding will be up in Lake County and will require at least a 14 passenger limo......... Thanks in advance for any help!

If you have a question, post it and you'll always get an immediate response. I'm leaving for Vegas on Saturday so it really helped me to have this information before hand. They have a thread specifically for the $20 trick, I'll leave the link. $20 trick LVMB Thanks for the info, when you come back please let me know if you tried the sandwich and if it worked. Have a great trip!

Heading to Vegas at the end of March and staying at Caesars Palace. I've been to Vegas about 4-5 other times, but don't ever recall trying to upgarde a room. I recently heard of the Twenty Dollar Trick where you simple sandwich a $20 or $50 between your credit card and DL at check in while asking if there are any upgrades available. Does anyone here have any suggestions or thoughts on this or what would be the best possible way to get an upgrade? I booked through Southwest vacations staying in a "classic" room. Thanks!

What is Gonzo's Twitter? Im dumping Cowleotti and replacing with Gonzo.

Over the last 24 hours, the Score has been reporting this trade rumor on its regular updates, what does that say?

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Nov 17, 2009 -> 04:16 PM) I think a lot of these writers have a hate for the blogs -- largely because it's taking their jobs. The SunTimes is near folding, the Trib is basically holding on til that happens. That does not excuse Mr Cowley's lack of professionalism, but at the same time these are people's livelihoods. Sam Smith always used to write about how much he hated blogs. Then upon accepting a buyout, he became what he hated. There's no doubt about it........first thing I do each day is go to Soxtalk for my White Sox news.

Read the email......Wow......really gets the juices flowing inside. It's like his Tweets times 10......guy has a lot of insecurties inside and it shows.

Cowley = Douche

SG for the Chicago Bulls

I'd just like to get to 3.0 games back by the last series of the year in Detroit. Essentially we would have 3 playoff games right there, and it would be interesting to see how Detroit would react to that. I think the last few years we've had some sweeps vs. Detroit.

Worked with the flash drive the other night, Big Sqwert was right, had to hit the triangle button to pull up the options on the PS3.

Game 163. Thanks Big Jim. Got get that ring.

QUOTE (Paint it Black @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 11:18 AM) Just burn it as a file to a blank disk. Then insert blank disk into PS3 and it should read the file. There are a few files that are not compatible, but for the most part this way works. Let's assume I don't have any discs to burn on.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 31, 2009 -> 09:39 AM) You certainly can do it with a flash drive. You can also download something like tversity and stream it to your PS3 from your PC. If I do it with the flash drive, what is the correct way to copy it to the flash drive, and where do I go on the PS3 to open the file and play it from the flash drive? I tried it before and it didn't work......I'm not sure I copied the file correctly because when I went to open it on the PS3 it said "no titles"
