Manager’s Tip: Control
When the ball is in the air, look for the red icon. This is
where the ball will land. Get your player moving in that
direction as soon as you can. Note that the red icon may
move slightly if the wind’s blowing out.
ADVANCED DEFENSE
Sometimes, the difference between making the highlight reel
and watching the opponent run the bases with impunity
happens before the batter ever hits the ball. It can come down
to a matter of positioning your players in the right spot. Before
the pitch, you can adjust your defensive setup by using the
left and right triggers. Pulling the left trigger will cycle
you through the infield alignments while pulling the right
trigger will cycle you through your outfield alignments.
See the list on the next page for a description of the different
defensive alignments you can use.
