Jackie Robinson Moment
-
First at bat - 1st inning. Overlay said I was 0 for 5 with a K. Knew it was going to be a special set of moments. SDS does not disappoint.
The 2 doubles with 1 SB moment - I was Bronze 67 when it started. I was Bronze 75 before Carlos Martinez could find the strike zone. (Stage 2 Moment)
In around 30 attempts at above moment, Cardinal outfielders dove and caught around a dozen gap shots. Took about 35 attempts as I somehow hit more HR than doubles.Appreciate the free stuff. Not a fan in the least of moments where the game plays differently than other modes that drastically for long periods, then all of a sudden, you are able to complete it almost effortlessly.

I got a triple my first at bat just now, then a single. Then a lazy fly ball to center that was Good Timing / "Okay" contact. Looked at the PCI Contact and it was a 14 ?? WTF? I know they're trying to make these harder but thats [censored] ridiculous.
Failed it. Started over and first at bat I just got an Good / Good and my PCI was an 11. I really wish SDS would tell us what we need to do in order to please the baseball gods. This game makes ZERO sense.
-
My first attempt I had a single, triple, single and then two fly outs on the warning track
Since then I haven't even come close. -
The MOST frustrating part of these multi-hit moments is that the pitchers don't throw strikes. How am I supposed to make solid contact when 75% of the pitches are outside the zone. Cant walk for 7 TB, SDS!!!
-
directional and power swing to try and get a homer and/or triple in first couple AB's...then switch back to zone and use contact or bunt...hope this helps...best wishes
-
I’ve hit a hr on the first ab like 5 times and every time the pitchers won’t pitch to me the rest of the game. Literally last game I did that I got 4 pitches not even close to the zone 2 ab’s in a row after the hr.

Watch this card be a XBH Beast Online......
-
I think I failed it more than any other. Never hit a single HR. I just did exchanges to skip that and Dodgers steals

Same thing was happening to me on the April potm program
-
After an hour, 2 3B and 1HR for 10 TB, always square button, just luck
In the first 2 AB you need a 3B or HR, if not restart. -
I needed 1 more hit and Garrett hits me and I fail the mission lol. Had to put it out there because my wife didn't care.

“Confirm Restart” is what they should’ve called the 7 TB moment... cuz that’s all I been hitting for the better part of an hour on that thing since coming home from work. Frustrating AF
Took over an hour but finally lucked into 7 bases

The [censored] card isn’t worth the headaches and frustration

This mission is terrible.
I miss last year's DD. Whether you were a hardcore player who was really good or a casual player who just liked to smack the ball around it was fun. Heck I unlocked Honus. This year's version is like difficulty level 87 and only for the best online players. Everyone else be damned.
Just look at the inning programs, last year you got golds at 100, low diamonds at 200 and then high diamonds at 300. This year there are some useless golds at 150 and some blah diamonds at 300.

No doubt. But it’s Jackie. I know we’re talking bout a [censored] video game, but, for what 42 meant to baseball (and the world), the least I could do is persevere & grind him to my squad.

Fair point. It’s just crazy how sds does these legends with these watered down cards

Started with two triples.
Then got to 1st base on a strikeout wild pitch. Why doesn't that count as a base!!??Ended up getting a single on my last at bat, so finally some luck.
