I just started a Life Mode game with a pitcher created via success mode.

For now, I only have 3 different pitch types.

Will I learn new ones or am I stuck with the ones learned in success mode ?

Thanks,
Burger

you need to buy a book that teaches you a pitch in the store.

I think you can only learn them during spring training with the books.

I think you are right, because I tried it during the regular season and nothing seems to happen.

I love that your favorite team is the Expos.. I created a Franchise/Season Mode team for them.. I just wish there was a way to unlock the old Expos jersey instead of trying to create an Original Team jersey for them.. (or any other old jersey)

The requirements is that you learn them from books, and having to train them in the spring training. to learn, it'll take all of the practice in the spring to learn 1 new breaking ball
Such as, training a new slider, curveball etc.

It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of the mystery everyday. Never lose a holy curiousity
