Here are Sammy’s numbers with the Tier 3 boost from the Nico Hoerner captain card.
100 Contact vs R
92 Contact vs L
125 Power vs R (gets +15, but 125 is the max)
102 Power vs L
101 Batting Clutch
60 Plate Vision (gets +15 & goes up to 75)
71 Fielding (gets +10 & goes up to 81)… IMO, the Soriano card is a better boost.

Definitely.

With only 1 HR left for the 20 and 3 tiers remaining I wonder what they are going to add....
They will probably add one more stat mission (ex. 15 XBH w/ RF or something) along with the final HR moment.
I've really liked the program. It isn't really anything new, but just the historical structure makes it feel different and refreshing. Sammy has the kind of swing where once you get the timing down it becomes easy to square up some bombs.
Also, this card is completely FREE. A 95 overall card at this stage - and a popular name as well - that costs absolutely nothing aside from doing several moments and a little grinding where every other Retro Lightning card has been locked behind an expensive collection. Not really sure what more people could want from SDS here.

The path to unlock him even contains a bunch of XP drops with some good packs.

Though I’m hoping they change the last pack for the spotlight one from may to June

Appreciate you doing that.
Thank you. -
Seems we are one mission from finishing correct?
-
@nymets1987_PSN yep; tomorrow Moment hit #20 on June 30th, 1998.
-
Where tf is the moment to finish this off?
-
Probably noon Pacific (in 3 hours).
-
Sosa program completed
-
@samguenther1987_PSN same bro. Got lucky and smoked the first pitch
-
So, they added the final moment without adding any more missions. That means you MUST do the two 8 TB moments in order to get the card.
Whoo-boy. Not happening for me. I’ll be stuck on 92 points.
This program will join Jackie Robinson (showdown), new threads (showdown) and Easter (Diamond quest) as not getting finished this year for me.
Oh well…..
SDS says, “play your way” (and we will reward you our way).

I don’t think SDS meant “play poorly”. I suggest not giving up or getting a friend to do these for you.
-
@capardo_XBL . Same here I tried multiple times to do those moments but found it impossible to do. Sucks because normally they would put a repeatable mission for people to do
-
@sbchamps17_NSW agreed! Put a repeatable mission in there and none of these types of threads would exist. It’s what they do for the extreme program each year.
-
They may still add something extra to finish it. They could be giving it a day or two for the people who finished it all a little head start as a reward for keeping up.
By the way, I had his card at P1 at almost exactly 50 minutes after the last moment released. I knew I wasn't super efficient with the process, but I couldn't believe I was 71st to do so. There's some crazy dudes out there and now I know I'll never be able to 1/1 any card.
-
Personally, I play on Nintendo, and I am not a good player at all, but still managed to finish this program in no time at all.
-
bro try again. directional up and in, wait for a hanger, twice. took me maybe 10 minutes for both.
-
@BLAISEBLAISE_PSN Thanks for the encouragement! I eventually did get them both. Literally, took 75 restarts ( no exaggeration) to get the two 8 TB moments.
Being able to restart without having the play complete is a true gaming life saver.
