Broken Bat Baseball
In six years of playing this game, I still have no idea what Bat Control is... I really wish Steve would update the manual.

As near as I can tell, Hitting is Contact, and Bat Control is Placement. But the definition of Bat Control says "Contact"... So its contradictory...

From the Manual:
Hitting: ability to hit the ball and put it in play.

Bat Control: ability to make contact with the baseball, especially important for avoiding strike outs and successful bunting.


So the Hitting definition implies both Contact (ability to hit the ball) and Placement (put it in play).

The Bat Control definition also implies both Contact (make contact... avoiding strike outs) and Placement (successful bunting)...

In the real world, Bat Control mean Placement. So I've generally assumed that is what it means in the game, but given the definition I'm really not sure...

The manual definitions are so confusing. I really wish Steve would explain it once and for all...
