Are we sure about the power boost? The feeling I get from playing the game is that Pull hitter only affects the tendency of the direction the ball is hit - as in a later timing still results in pulling the ball. In that sense it's nothing like the opposite of Push Hitter. --[[User:Odawali|Odawali]] 16:50, 14 March 2008 (CDT)

Hitting '''often''' to a certain side is not the same as '''good''' at hitting to a certain direction. The former implies a '''tendency''' (neutral), while the latter implies a '''boost''' (blue/positive).--[[User:Odawali|Odawali]] 04:15, 15 March 2008 (CDT)

Are we sure about the power boost? The feeling I get from playing the game is that Pull hitter only affects the tendency of the direction the ball is hit - as in a later timing still results in pulling the ball. In that sense it's nothing like the opposite of Push Hitter. --Odawali 16:50, 14 March 2008 (CDT)

I usually don't use guys with Pull Hitter, but because it's red/blue - I think that the red part restricts ability to go the other way, and late-timed pull hits won't be good ones - but the blue parts make usual pull hits (early ones with guys without the ability) more powerful. Just a hunch, but it's realistic.--J-Gao 17:11, 14 March 2008 (CDT)
If you usually don't use guys with Pull Hitter, where did you get this idea? IF there were a power boost, wouldn't that make it a BLUE ability? If the timing cursor is simply shifted to the pull side, that sounds like a neutral ability. Let's compare the descriptions of Pull Hitter and Push Hitter:
    Pull Hitter - Hits often to the same side he bats from
    Push Hitter - Good at hitting to the opp. field
Hitting often to a certain side is not the same as good at hitting to a certain direction. The former implies a tendency (neutral), while the latter implies a boost (blue/positive).--Odawali 04:15, 15 March 2008 (CDT)
