	 List of Action Keystrokes for Earl Weaver Baseball II
		  	4 March, 1991


Action Keys

	The action keys are pretty much the same from EWB 1.5.

	In all cases below, on keypad use the cursor keys, with a joystick
	point in the desired direction and press the fire button, and on 
	the keyboard use the key pattern:
			q w e
			a s d
			z x c.
Action Defense Keys


    Pitching Phase 1 - select type and speed of pitch

	 Break Left	|	Straight	|	Break Right
	 Slow		|	Slow		|	Slow
	 ------------------------------------------------------------
	 Break Left	|	Straight	|	Break Right
	 Medium		|	Medium		|	Medium
	 ------------------------------------------------------------
	 Break Left	|	Straight	|	Break Right
	 Fast		|	Fast		|	Fast
	 ------------------------------------------------------------

	NOTE: Speed will reflect the current pitcher's velocity rating.

    Pitching Phase 2 - select attempted location of pitch

	 Upper Left	|	Middle High	|  Upper Right
	 ------------------------------------------------------------
	  Left		|	Middle 		|   Right
	 ------------------------------------------------------------
	 Lower Left	|	Middle Low	|  Lower Right
	 ------------------------------------------------------------

	NOTE: Better accuracy on pitches down the middle with medium speed,
		but these are also MUCH easier to hit (especially for 
		the computer).  Control rating for current pitcher is 
		reflected in the percentage of time requested pitch is
		in the strike zone.


    Pitcher Phase 3 - select pitch/pick off/pitch out etc.  (Baserunners,
    		if any, are now "alive" and can advance at their own risk)

	 Pitch Out	|	Out of Strike Zone	| Pick Off
	 ------------------------------------------------------------
	 Pitch Out	|	In Strike Zone		| Pick Off
	 ------------------------------------------------------------
	 Pitch Out	|	Out of Strike Zone	| Pick Off
	 ------------------------------------------------------------

	NOTE: For pitch out of strike zone, same Control ratings apply.  That
		is, the control rating determines the percentage of the time
		that the pitcher will actually be able to throw a ball on
		purpose.

     Fielding
     	As in all other EWB products, the fielders automatically chase and
	catch the ball.  Throw the ball by pointing to the base desired
	(if using a joystick, point and press the fire button)

			Second Base

	Third Base	Pitcher's Mound		First Base

			Home Plate


	As usual, if a ball is in flight from the outfield, pressing any
	button will activate the cutoff man and he will attempt to catch
	the ball before it passes him.


Action Offensive Keys

	Batting
		As usual, batting requires RELEASING the swing button.  The
		swing button may be held down during the windup.

		Keyboard	| 	Key Pad		| Joystick
		---------------------------------------------------
	Swing		s	|	5		| button 1
		---------------------------------------------------
	Bung		d	|	6		| button 2
		---------------------------------------------------
	Run			|			|
	Forward 	w 	|	8		| stick up
		---------------------------------------------------
	Run			|			|
	Back		x	|	2		| stick down
		---------------------------------------------------
