HR with F power and F contact

Don't know if this has been discovered before, as I have seen questions asked about it. Yes it is possible to get a HR with someone with F power and F contact. Just got a 2HR game with one, actually

i can get homers with a guy with F power if they have a 3 trj

Da Cowinator · **Posted:** Mon Oct 06, 2008 6:50 pm

My guy had 2 TRAJ, don't know if that is worse or better then having three?

mike94100 · **Posted:** Mon Oct 06, 2008 6:53 pm

it depends, in succes i had a homer w/ F power 3 trj.

I find it nearly impossible to hit homers with F power and 2 trj.

um, yes it's possible, you need some luck though. One of my favorite things to do:

go into My data and edit a player to 0 power but 4 trj, then go into HR derby and hit maybe 5 or 6 350 ft homers, and get 500 pp! :mrgreen:

thats sweet.

It is possible with 10 (G-)power in certain parks and with ideal win conditions. It is just incredibly rare and will on average give about 1-3 homers a season. I have a guy with maxed contact and only 70 power but he has 30 homers in late July with about 20-22 of them inside the park.

It's easy if it's a mistake pitch or a hanging changeup up in the zone.

DeathJohnson · **Posted:** Tue Oct 07, 2008 5:20 pm

In success I can hit them with G power and 1 TRJ.

In a homerun derby, my pitcher with 35 Pwr (F) and 1 TRJ hit 5 homers with 380ft being the longest.

I find that when I edit a players abilities, then auto fix the stats it gives weak players or pitchers a HR. It's just hard to do in an actual game.

I found out it's important to read the wind. If you read the wind well you can get home runs at the same time high batting average. This is what I've tried:

4 and 3 wind outfield with my character in good condition, I use my power, get homeruns sometimes
use normal swing with other conditions, I can get hits before outfielders gets it.
(power F trajection2 ave. over 0.4)

if you use A Rod or other stars then you don't need to read the wind....just pull it :mrgreen:

with guys like a-rod and braun, all you have to do is HIT IT decently. :lol:

Definitely, and if you're a switch hitter, you can even hit from the opposite side (Hit pause and L1/R1 on PS2) to get a tailwind on pulled line drives.

I forget that I can choose my side with switch hitters, that's a very good point.
