Al Kaline home runs
-
Gotta wait for the hanger. I had to play this twice because I kept crushing the ball into the gaps and not out of the park.
Just sit on a hanging breaking pitch and he goes deep.
-
Seems with these player programs you have to just keep at it. With Kaline I couldnt get anything to drop in. Then all of a sudden boom. Got all the HR's and XBH in 2 games and cruised to the end. Had the same thing with one of the Granderson moments. struggled for a bit then 4 HR in a game to finish it.
-
This entire moment is a joke! It reminds me of the Bartolo Colon HR moment from last year. Seems like no matter how you hit the ball the output is random. VETERAN CPU is making diving plays on 110 mph EV balls that would be down the line for XB hits. I had 16 hits before the last game and no HRS. SDS needs to realize balance is key. Stop making moments that I can do with my eyes shut and others that take three days regardless of ability.
-
Use directional hitting. Its asinine that we need to change our setting to get different output.
-
I found success waiting for the big hanging curves (Wainwright), and then went opposite field in Game 7. Playing at Polo really helps with those shots down the line.

So I’ve tried twice in a row for the 7 game series Kaline mission. Kept coming up short on home runs, but absolutely smoking 106mph liners everywhere and getting probably 25 hits. Anything in the air just didn’t have the velocity. So I decided to switch to directional hitting to see what happened. Hit a home run in my very first at-bat and had the 2 home runs needed after the 2nd game. Makes absolutely no sense. It should be much easier to hit home runs using zone hitting and squaring up pitches in the upper area of PCI. And don’t get me started on online gameplay. Haha.
COME ON SDS! You’re better than this!Thought is was just me lol. Had to Dashboard 3x with 1 game left. Read your post switched to directional and first at Bat HR to complete it

He hits like a backup OF in this game.
-
I have had multiple perfect - perfect fly balls die at the warning track trying to do this. Very frustrating.

That's because this card swings a pool noodle. Immensely frustrating.
-
Perfect-perfect on a fastball, using power swing, and it's caught on the warning track. This is a complete joke.
-
Switch to directional. It finally helped me and I was having absolute fits trying to finish these moments. Finally got it
-
Crazy. I had to do it 3 times. It says it’s on Rookie. I was squaring up balls at 106- 107 MPH off the bad and it dies at the warning track over and over again. Bad Moment.
Reminded me of the Ruth moments last year. -
Got it the 3rd time though. Ended up using the power swing square button the entire challenge,

same here man I hit 1 HR. I'm just gonna go get three extra base hits online with tigers or 10 with outfielders
Dashboard. Multi-game moments are a guaranteed success.
What does Dashboarding mean ?

Lose connection before the game is over. If I don't have what I need, I just don't take my last at bat. I hit the ps button, go to settings, network, and run a network connection check. This causes you to lose connection with the game, so it doesn't count (although you still get your xp for some reason). With dashboarding you're guaranteed to succeed with multi-game moments.

I went in right away with Directional. I hit a homer off the fair pole - yes it's the fair pole "because it makes it a fair ball" said the great Warner Wolf back in the day - and one almost on the fly to left center at Polo that went for a GRD.
Directional is the way for this one. -
I can get doubles without too much of a hassle but these home runs are not easy. In all my playing, I only hit 1 with Kaline and it was a fluke.

You do not have to check network settings, Just hold the PS button down, then the option menu comes up where you can close the application, I close out the game and then go restart the game.
