I just looked through some picture sequences I have of it, looks like it might be Randy Johnson's - though I haven't fired up the Wii to compare and know for sure. Likely be tomorrow before I'll be able to check. But here's the sequence if someone else wants to match it up...

Image

[edit] - Byrd's is very identifiable, I couldn't tell from the still images if Oscar was dropping the arms and coming back up.

The images seem a little dark on my computer but I have used Randy Johnson's form for a couple of my pitchers (he's one of my favorites), and by the looks of the last pic, I think you're right. His front leg ends up way out it front like Randy's.

Thanks.

I think some other success mode character has Paul Byrd's style.

Ok I take it back.

Last time I played against him (I was a pitcher), and I wrote down that he was a lefty that pitched 3/4 style. So it must be someone else's. Can anyone see these images better than I can and confirm the style?

No one can identify this pitch?

I would do it but I'm in the middle of making a guy right now, and like I said I can't see it very well on my junk computer.

There is a possibility that this style is a RH turned around.

It's definitely Paul Byrd's pitching motion, he's the only one that starts with his throwing hand in his glove and takes it out before actually throwing it. Also, he does the exact same motion as shown in the pictures.

Ok.
The third pick does look like his hand swings down before he throws.
Thanks everyone for your help.

It might be a original pitching stance like Patricks batting stance seen in the picture becuase nobody elses pitching motion hands go out then back in like Paul Byrd's.
*Note where can i find a player with Patricks batting style? Thanks

Created Player, I want to use a guy like that in Season

Post subject:  Re: Pitching Styles
Hmm, afraid I can't help since you've got a Wii. Usually the stance is listed on the thread along with the player's password, so it shouldn't be too hard to find.
