Gameplay in High heat relies on timing your hits and throws. When playing as a batter, it mostly comes down to figuring out what kind of pitch your opponent is going to throw and tapping the button at the right moment. Playing as a pitcher is done the same way with the option of a total of 27 different throws as well as a strike and ball button
