Al Kaline, 11 hits, 4 extra base hits, 2 HR in 7 games mission
-
It took me 2 attempts but I finished it in game 5. Second attempt I just sat on curveballs and hit 5 HR, with 10 XBH. Its doable, you just have to stick to your plan. Both Mikolas and Wainright throw quite a few hanging curveballs.

It might say rookie but the sliders say otherwise.
Yep. I can tell by the nasty breaking stuff they keep dotting corners with, and bronze relievers throwing Nolan Ryan curveballs. The trouble with the game is, in part, you cannot see the break of the seams on a TV screen the same way you do when you play in real life.
Try retro camera

Struggled for a handful of games like you are saying and then I used power swing until I had 2 strikes and then used X. Got the homers knocked out early and then got it done. Hope this helps!

Just wait for the 'beat the Tigers on All-Star' part.
I don't know what was going on, but i had to win
in the bottom of the 9th on a Juan Soto 2-run hr.
I'm good at the game, but was SHUT OUT by the
TIGERS until then!!!! I broke my monitor because
of the frustration. I used my 5th starter so they
would use theirs, but i couldn't score anything!!!
I hurled my 'The Show' Cap at the monitor. Now i have
lines going through like this
IIIIIII_

Dumb move, but i was in disbelief, and a little drunk, honestly.
If i lost 1-0 i would have retired from The Show right there! -

Umm, okay, that must be why I haven't been able to beat it since 4 a.m. today in 30 different 7-game attempts.
I have gone from level 98 bronze to Level 6 silver since 4 a.m. trying to beat this. That's insanity. And I've been playing this game for years. I have had SO many balls timed right or squared up for outs, it's ridiculous.

The only hard part of this was the second HR

I have hit the second HR several times, but each time I do, I am always 1 or 2 hits short. Or vice versa. I hate when people come on here and say how easy a challenge is. We get it. You are better than 99 percent of people struggling at the same mission. So either contribute helpful ideas, rather than bragging, otherwise you are bringing nothing to the conversation.
I am sure the reason it's so easy is why I have gone from Level 98 bronze to Level 6 silver just trying to beat this challenge, alone.

Guess I should’ve put “for me” since everyone on this forum is a snowflake and takes a statement as bragging

Remember on moments you can dashboard. If you are going into game 7 and need couple of hits or a sing HR and don't get them, go back to the dashboard, close application, and reopen. You will not lose progress and pick back up at the same game. It has to be done before your final out is recorded so be quick about it. Also only swing with Square even if you have the 2 HR's, continue swinging with Square for the XBH.
-
Yeah this moment is a joke, all I can do is get good contact to the warning track. I really enjoy getting timing the ball great and hitting line outs constantly on rookie. It’s almost laughable
-
This game is something else.
I breezed through this mission. For the HRs, I sat on fastballs up in the zone.
No tricks, not using directional, only normal swings. I finished the whole thing in 5 games.
What I do easily, others struggle with and vice versa.I blow through this no problem, but I cannot beat the 2nd inning showdown if my life depended on it.
I bet some of you struggling with this, blew through the 2nd inning showdown.
It's funny how life is. -
If you don't have the 2nd HR done by gm 5 just dashboard out before the final out. That way you don't have to hit the final HR at Comerica Park
-
I keep getting everything except 1 hit. Last attempt I needed 1 hit. Had 3 perfectly timed line out in a row. SMH
-
You can skip that mission and still complete the player program. Do all the other moments and play tigers on allstar. Kalines bat is a wet noodle in that moment
-
I tried it a few times, not gonna mess with it again. I got the other 6 moments done, plus the CPU game. I will just play ranked and get 10 hits with OFs. I might even put Klesko at 1B and Rosario at 2B just to give me some extra OF bats.
Or you can get 3 XBH online with Tigers players. That might be harder than the Kaline WS moment though.
-
I’m I the only one who didn’t have trouble? I just waited for the meatball down the middle, and only pressed x to swing. Got it done in 6 games
-
Swing with power

Well, in fairness, it pretty much is bragging. And also, using the word snowflake every time someone has a differing opinion than yours is "snowflake" in of itself. Have a great day, irony aside.

You can't skip this mission unless you want to play against others online, and I want no part of that toxicity. I finally beat this mission in my final at-bat with a double today after over 30 seven-game series tries. It's miraculous.
