One fun note I love about Everybody Wants Some!! is how each pitcher& #39;s playing style reflects so directly on who they are as a person
Willoughby has that old school long wind long careless wind up. Just a guy out there causally having fun

Raw Dog Jay is perfection. The guy who thinks himself great has this odd long windup with a touch of the dramatic which completely blows away the facade of his actual talent
And then there& #39;s Jake. The literal blank slate of the movie with the most generic MLB the Show preloaded generated pitching animation I& #39;ve ever seen. He is the default setting on your user created pitcher
