This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.

...doing the Success All-Stars Scenario...
I noticed that the only way to fully customize your own player is to do this mode. Otherwise, you're at the mercy of the AI when you train.
The only reason why I want to do this is to make a Suzumiya Haruhi no yuuutsu baseball team and I need a SP/2B (Haruhi), CL/2B (Kyon), and 2 C/OF's (Nagato & Koizumi).
I've been able to get to the match to get into the top 3, but then just get annihilated usually getting 1 or 2-hit. This has happened every time I've played, and it's getting rather frustrating.
My biggest issue (and it applied to 13) is that I'm an away hitter. I can't pull the ball to save my life and almost always hit opposite field. Also, I can't use the power setting while batting either (only in 10). It's pretty much either a whiff or a blooper which defeats the purpose. Also in the match to get to 3rd, almost all my hits are those of the "boink" variety (boink as in it's like a hit off the end of the bat, etc.
Am I missing something, or are my reflexes just too darn slow to play this?
