However, I'm 98% sure Steve said the pitches thrown don't make any difference. It's merely to make it seem more realistic and add some color to the game. In other words, while the game presents the sim pitch by pitch, I think the outcomes are determined without regard to pitch selection.

For example, if you have a pitcher whose scouting report says he may have a major league slider but his repertoire has forkball listed before his slider, it’s usually a good indication that he’ll wind up with better change of speed than movement. As for pitch usage in game situations, Mike’s probably got it right.
