1. There are 3 types of "straight pitches".
-The first two are default. The baseball icon represents a changeup/straight fastball about 5 km/h off your top speed, and the default UP pitch is the 4SFB (thrown at or near your top speed)
-There are then 3 different two-seamers. I assume the first two are a standard 2-seamer and a 1-seamer, but the last is the interesting one.
-The last UP pitch is...the eephus. It is thrown about 60 km/h off your top speed, and acts as you would expect it to- high arc with about a 30-foot drop.

I absolutely adore the Eephus pitch in any baseball video game.

This is in 2012 right? I'd love to see it in an actual game! You master the eephus and you are almost unhitable!

Yep, 2012.

It's just like the other 2seamers though, only 1 level.

My pitcher Kura has it, along with a level 1 slider and level 3 slow curve, he's pretty good (although purple face in my exhibition :( )

This is unrelated to this particular game, but in the MLB 2K games I have, they have the eephus pitch, and when I make myself in the game, I choose that pitch, and I can throw it around 38mph or so. It's so deadly.

Who was that Major Leaguer who threw only the eephus after a hunting accident?

Casey Fossum perhaps? I'm not sure...it probably isn't him, though...

EDIT: Rip Sewell. Just looked it up.

I tried to dig through the password exchange (all 1 pages of it) to see if I could find and translate any of these pitches. All I saw was
ストレート Straight
ムービングファスト Moving Fastball

Actually, it might be good for someone to take a picture of all the breaking pitches in the Upgrade Abilities screen in Success Mode so we can translate them like we are with the abilities. Maybe in a separate topic, too.

Yes, please. I'd be very glad so I can know what I'm doing.

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

I'm sure Eephus will be in '13, and '11 is good enough for me to wait. So I feel the same way as Skittle.

I'm probably going to wait until 2013 too, but it's pretty cool that the eephus is in there.
