TNK - SLIDER TESTING
Game #1 - Exhibition Game

Boston Red Sox @ Chicago Cubs
Pitching Matchup – Chris Sale vs Marcus Stroman

The Cubs took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the 1st when Dansby Swanson walked, stole second base and scored on a bloop RBI single along the RF line by Ian Happ. Boston responded in the top of the 2nd on a RBI single into CF by Reese McGuire tying the game at 1-1. Chris Sale and Marcus Stroman both settled in nicely and Sale had 6 Ks through 5 innings as we would head to the 6th inning with the score tied 1-1. The Cubs would take the lead with some two out magic in the bottom of the 6th as Nico Hoerner drew a 1 out walk and came around to score all the way from first base when Ian Happ lined a ball towards the gap in right-center for a big 2 out RBI double that snapped the tie and gave Chicago a 2-1 lead. Trey Mancini followed with a sinking liner to LF that dropped just in front of the diving attempt by Masataka Yoshida for a RBI single making it 3-1. Seya Suzuki was up next and made it 4-1 with a RBI double into the RF corner. Boston put two men on against Keegan Thompson with 2 outs in the top of the 7th for Kike Hernandez but Thompson would escape as Hernandez grounded to Swanson at SS who flipped to second base to end the threat. Brad Boxberger pitched a scoreless top of the 8th for the Cubs and the first two men reached base for Chicago in the bottom of the 8th before John Schreiber recorded back to back Ks of Mancini and Suzuki and Joely Rodriguez came on to retire Bellinger to end the 8th inning and send the game to the 9th inning with the Cubs leading 4-1. Brandon Hughes came on to pitch the top of the 9th for Chicago and retired Verdugo, Casas and Duvall in order to record the save as the Red Sox fall to the Cubs 4-1

Thanks, these are looking great at first glance! Could you give a general idea of what adjustments were made to Retro to build out the custom camera?

There's no way I can explain it other than....Just do 3 things until you figure it out

1) Move the camera up and down
2) Zoom In & Out
4) Change the tilt / angle of the camera

Just keep messing with those 3 and you will quickly get the hang of it....once you find something where you go "close enough", save the camera and you're done

TNK - SLIDER TESTING
Game #2 - Exhibition Game

Boston Red Sox @ Arizona Diamondbacks
Pitching Matchup – Brayan Bello vs Zach Davies

I had to quit this game in the 6th inning but it was a great game up to that point

Christian Arroyo and Jake McCarthy traded RBI singles early and Brayan Bello was dealing on the mound for the Red Sox as he had racked up 8 Ks and we were tied 1-1 through 5 innings. Boston took a 2-1 lead in the top of the 6th when Rafael Devers led off with an opposite field double and Masataka Yoshida smoked a ball over the head of McCarthy in RF for a RBI double giving the Sox a 2-1 lead. The Diamondbacks answered right back in the bottom of the 6th when Christian Walker stayed on a 94 mph sinker from Bello and drilled a 2-run HR to CF giving Arizona a 3-2 lead......then I fell asleep

I would have loved to finish that game, but I was able to put together decent highlights though

Here's the 8 Ks in 5+ innings by Bello


Here are the game highlights

Can these be played with classic hitting and pitching?
