* Related to the example above, since the game's pitchers all happen to be left-handed, the pitch names "shoot" and curve are used incorrectly. The pitch that bends to the right from the pitcher's perspective should be a curveball and the pitch that bends to the left should be a ''shuuto''/screwball/sinker/etc. The same mistake appears in the Japanese version of the game, so this isn't a translation issue. | * Related to the example above, since the game's pitchers all happen to be left-handed, the pitch names "shoot" and curve are used incorrectly.
