Sony's popular baseball series returns with a new focus on hitting dynamics, updated rosters, and additions to most game modes in MLB 13: The Show. The new Beginner mode is designed to help improve timing, pitch recognition, and plate discipline by offering an adaptive AI system that doesn't force gamers to advance until their skills are fully developed. The hitting of individual players has also been altered to reflect their real-world tendencies to pull the ball or go the opposite way, gamers across all difficulty levels now have slightly more time to react to pitches.
