Rendon moment

Jesus, this card swings a wet noodle!!! Been doing this moment for the past 45 mins and haven't hit a single home run and hits lazy fly balls 99% of the time. This moment should be his better card

Using his Finest card, instead of his atrocious LS card would make to much sense. But you know that when it comes to Moments; nothing SDS does makes sense.
You know like having a pitcher throw 1 strike for every 3 balls when you need multiple hits.
Having a baserunner get picked off taking a lead with two outs this ending your AB; yet the same baserunner won't run past second, onna ball hit into the gap, when you need an XBH.
And let's not forget the way they decided which ones are worth two points.
You have one where you need 6 total bases, which technically isn't a 'moment' that is worth one point. But earlier have you strike out one batter, which IS a moment, and they give you two points.

Pretty funny, not 5 mins after I post this I hit my first perfect perfect home run to left field, then promptly don't get the other 2TB lol
-
If you're hitting directional, point the stick straight up and power swing on pitches middle to high in the zone. You'll get it. It took me three tries (not 3 AB or 3 swings) but I finally got it.

I hit a no doubter my first AB and got hit by a pitch my second AB, had a wild pitch the third AB that a baserunner got caught, and my fourth AB was another possible homerun that was robbed at the wall. So...... Lol
-
Wait for a pitch at the knees and power swing with good timing, and restart the moment if you don't get a hit in your first at-bat. On my third attempt I hit a HR, and then a double. Took 3 minutes tops.

THOSE are the worst!!! Feels like that happens quite a bit against the CPU
-
The OF COURSE the first moment for Griffen Sr is hit a HR with a guy that also has a wet noodle for a swing lol
-
Grr. Hr, single then hit a perfect perfect groundball to short. Got to 5 TB
-
Got a 3B, and HR after about 15 retries.

It’s his gold card? Gross.
Well, I’ve beaten every single daily so far. This will probably take forever, but I’m not someone who quits easily.
-
Only way this could've been better is if they used the 99 Verlander lmao.

2nd AB hit one out to dead center. 4th AB no doubter to left. These moments are on rookie. Use power swing. If you can’t beat these moments I literally have no idea how you have success at any game mode. I’m not trying to be a git gud D-bag but it seems like everyday there is posts like this where a bunch of guys get together and completely exaggerate the difficulty of these moments.
How do you hit in Ranked? The events?

You're being ridiculous. Don't you know some will get it right away, some won't. No one exaggerated this Moment. Took me about 15 retries, 1 time I needed 1TB, but was denied by a SC top 10 play by Correa.
Sometimes, it's the players swing. Why do you think there's many responses here? -

Misery loves company?
I’ve posted about this before. Every complaint about moments I have experienced. Ridiculous diving catches, robbed HR, getting hit by pitch, runners getting picked off, etc. If it happens, I restart the moment and complete it. If OP can win ~70% of online games and hit .280+ the way hitting is all over this year he is more than capable of completing a Rookie moment in under 45 mins. 99% of the time if you don’t complete a rookie moment it’s because of your patience/swing timing. I’ll give you the other 1% on CPU cheese.
If I ever find myself struggling on one of these moments I also usually find myself distracted on my phone or not really locking in. Once I do they are quite simple for anyone who plays this game as often as people on this forum do. Focus up and do it.
-
First try. No doubter home run to left field, a perfect perfect warning track flyout to center (surprise surprise), hard groundball single up the middle, and a double to right that Yordan Alvarez dived for and missed by about 5 feet. Honestly dumbfounded I beat this so easily. Especially when I heard it was Rendon's meh live series card. I'm chalking it up to luck more than anything.

The stupidest thing about this moment is it’s a nationals moment using an angels card when he has a nationals card

He’s been out for a few weeks as one of the rewards in the event. His 99 finest. Not a lot of people probably have him, but you don’t need to own him to use him in a moment
