How to Get a Home Run in MLB 2K10

"Major League Baseball 2K10" -- aka "MLB 2K10" -- is one of a series of games published by 2K Sports. Available for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 2 and 3, MLB 2K10 has a hitting system that takes practice to master. There are three swing types -- power, contact and defensive. The power option is the most likely to result in a long ball.

Instructions

- 1
  Pull back on the right analog stick, as the pitcher releases the ball. Then move the stick forward, to complete your swing as the ball crosses the plate. The smoother this back-and-forward motion is, the harder you'll hit the ball.
- 2
  Swing early for a pull hit, by pulling back on the right analog stick as the pitcher releases the ball, and then moving the stick forward a bit early -- before the ball crosses the plate. If you make contact, you'll likely smack the ball to your strong field, which is left field for a right-hander and right field for a lefty.
- 3
  Swing late for an opposite-field hit, by pulling back on the right analog stick as the pitcher releases the ball, and then moving the stick forward a bit late -- after the ball crosses the plate. If you make contact, you'll likely smack the ball to the opposite field, which is left field for a left-hander and right field for a righty.
