Does anybody else think that some of the pitch type speeds listed in the Wiki are incorrect? I always just assumed that they were right, but after taking a wave of pitchers through Success Mode I noticed that the MPH differential appears to be about 50% of what we have listed. For example, the SIFB. Wiki says -6. I saw about -3. Same with the CUT, -6 vs -3. Just curious . . .

After further research, the MPH differentials listed in the Wiki for breaking pitches applies to a player in purple (worst) condition. Add approx 1 MPH to all breaking pitches for each level above worst condition.

In other words, when a player's condition is pink (best), you gain +4 mph of MPH differential on most breaking pitches.

Examples:
SLD is listed as -10 MPH. When pink, it peaks at -6.
CHG is listed as -18 MPH. When pink, it peaks at -14.
2SFB is listed as -3 MPH. When pink, it peaks at 0. (I originally thought this was due to Battler - it is not.)

For the examples, don't you mean pink, not purple?

Are you saying it's wrong to talk to a bag of Skittles? Because if so, I'm going to need to rethink a lot of things. :P

This info has been added to the wiki. Although, it'd be nice of someone could double-check so this can be totally confirmed
