I tried to play online.
But I’m bad.So, looks like I better beat Showdown.
Sonavagun!I'm awful online as well, got blown out 7-0 and 7-1 last night but I still won 3 games so I'll stick with it for 2 more wins at least. There's no way I'm beating the showdown.
My last win was a tie until the bottom of the 4th when I took a pitch that I thought I was very late on out to Left Field using Jason Dominguez. Couldn't believe my luck.
-
I've lost 150 games online. No shame.

I suck too. I'm in my mid fifty's and I can't help thinking I'm getting my as* handed to me by some 16 year old who is messaging me after every at bat in a language I don't understand............. lol
Played 4 event games lost two on people bunting it’s just not fun

I’m dreading playing the event. I hope I can get lucky and complete the showdown.

I am not good enough for showdown I know this so I am trying event and hoping only need 3 more
-
I promise ANYONE can get 5 wins online for the event. Including you.. It doesn't need to be done in 1 night. Play a few here and there and you will get them.. Don't quit so easy. You're not England

Showdown is slowly matching the same hatred I have for moments. Both are awful in their own special way.
-
I just tried to do the showdown and I failed the second mini boss (Palmer). More of a sweatfest for me.

I got it second try. Just get to ten runs before final guy. He tires out and it's easy. Don't let the failures on blue cards carry over to red. Bunt if you need to.

Showdown is just glorified moments. All those blue missions are just moments. I have yet to do a showdown this year. I’m glad they made them a lot more optional.

Each time I bunted to move runners over (and not with power hitters that have no business bunting), it either popped up for an easy out or a laser right to a fielder for a double play. Alternatively, I get a guy on first and hit a pitch up in the zone ends up a ground ball for a double play. It was Murphy’s Law in action.
I do appreciate the advice. I just needed to vent.
-
Suck at both; avoid it like my in- laws are in town.
No thanks. -
I just keep hoping I can get the event wins because I want Felix more so than Clemente

No thanks.I’d rather deal with my father in law than do showdown or events. He’s like a dog sometimes. Toss him some food and he’s quiet for a while.

Sonavagun!you should go against me. I am 1-10 last 2 days in the event. I think I had lost 7 in a row before my first win.
btw - when you're up 6-0 against me after 1 inning, why do you keep hitting LT to view hr replays. What's the point?
-
Old guy here too. I've really enjoyed the game this year until this program. Not liking it at all though I'm sure others do. It's crazy they put out something so divisive right as Madden drops lol. Just trying to push though it. I hate the online game though I'm capable of playing 500 ball or so.
-
Second attempt: lost on first mini boss. Get lead off man on then double play followed by liners to fielders or gold glove plays when I do make good contact. Ugh

Dude how did you fail Palmer? He was by far the easiest

I am just that bad.

Old here also. Have the reflexes of a sloth. Gave up on the showdown..couldn't hit anything. Figured my best shot to finish FOD grind was to get online and try to scratch out the 5 wins needed. I'm at 4 so I'm sure I can get lucky for 1 more.
