Alright, listen up, y’all. We’re gonna talk about this “vision” thing in that there MLB The Show game. Don’t know much about fancy computer stuff, but I know a thing or two about hittin’ a ball, see? And this vision thing, well, it’s kinda like seein’ the ball better, I reckon.
What’s This Vision Stuff Anyway?
So, them fellas in the game, they got this “vision” number. The bigger the number, the better they see the ball, simple as that. It ain’t got nothin’ to do with wearin’ glasses, though. It’s more like… like they got a bigger sweet spot on their bat, even if they don’t really.
Now, what does it do? Well, it makes that little PCI thingy bigger. You know, that circle thing you move around when you’re tryin’ to hit. Bigger PCI means you got a better chance of hittin’ the ball, even if you’re a bit off on your timin’. It’s like havin’ a bigger barn door to aim at, you see? Makes it easier to get wood on the ball, that’s for sure.
- Bigger PCI, easier to hit.
- More hits, less whiffs. That means you ain’t swingin’ at air as much.
- Even if you’re late or early on your swing, you still got a chance to make contact.
Is Vision Important? You Betcha!
Some folks say it ain’t as important as power or contact, but I tell ya, it matters. Especially when them pitchers start throwin’ all that fancy stuff – curveballs, sliders, all that jazz. If you can’t see the ball, you ain’t gonna hit it, right? Vision helps you see that junk better, helps you foul off pitches you shouldn’t be swingin’ at.
And if you’re playin’ on them harder difficulties, the ones where the pitchers are real nasty, you need all the help you can get. That’s where vision really shines. It gives you a little extra wiggle room, lets you get away with a few mistakes.
Vision vs. Contact – What’s the Diff?
Now, some folks get confused about vision and contact. They think they’re the same thing, but they ain’t. Contact is about how good you are at hittin’ the ball solid when you do make contact. Vision is about makin’ that contact in the first place. You need both, see? High contact ain’t gonna do you no good if you can’t even touch the ball.
Think of it this way:
- Vision: Helps you see the ball and make contact.
- Contact: Helps you hit the ball hard and get a good result when you make contact.
So, How Do You Use This Vision Thing?
Well, you wanna look for players with high vision, obviously. Especially if you’re playin’ on harder difficulties or if you ain’t the best hitter in the world. When you’re buildin’ your team, don’t just look at the power numbers. Pay attention to that vision rating, too. It’ll make a difference, I promise you.
And when you’re up at the plate, trust your eyes. Use that bigger PCI to your advantage. Don’t be afraid to foul off pitches until you get one you like. And remember, even if you’re a little off on your timing, that vision can help you out. It gives you more room for error.
The Bottom Line
Vision ain’t everything, but it’s darn important in MLB The Show. It helps you see the ball better, make more contact, and foul off tough pitches. If you wanna be a good hitter, you gotta pay attention to that vision rating and use it to your advantage. So go on out there and give ’em heck, ya hear? And don’t forget to keep your eye on the ball – that’s the most important thing, vision or no vision.
Now git outta here and go play some ball! That’s all I gotta say ’bout that vision stuff. It’s like seein’ better, hittin’ better. Simple as that.
And remember, even an old lady like me knows good hittin’ when she sees it. So pay attention!
