My Seaver, Hornsby, Babe review
-
This is one game so far so I know it’s an early review but take it for what it’s worth. Decided to finally play my first game on RS this season after grinding 50 event wins and All Timers Program. Played a fellow WS player on HOF.
Tom Seaver - CG 8 hits (four were from bunts to lofton lou and Gwynn). 2 earned ( made one mistake pitch hanging slider homer, other was a 9th inning sac fly score after back to back bunts, sb). And 10ks. Great control, speed differential.
Hornsby - I pressed with him hitting fourth, went 1-4 with a single. Had good exit velos and hit two to warning track, just missed it on pci. Defense was really well and didn’t feel like a silver out there, turned two double plays on speedster running to first.
Babe - was a little worried with his hitting stats not being what they were in years past. 3-4 and a homer. First at bat hit an inside dotted sinker lefty lefty in at the hands for a tank. Forgot how great of a swing he has. Definitely ENDGAME first baseman for me (silver fielding and 60 speed is respectable there).
I’m intrigued to see how these players play on legend once I make it to the 900s. Let me know how these three players or any other new releases have worked for you! Hopefully next game I can get gagne in.

I had mantle and mondesi early on, changed my SS cap to be an early Mariners A Rod so I went with his swing. Good luck with those last 6 games. You will love Babe!
-
for me hornsby went 0-5 and made an error on a routine ground ball.. babe went 4-5 2 bombs and a double he’s a beast
-
Sucks to here you had a bad game with Hornsby. His defense will be suspect at 2b but that bat will make up for it in my opinion. Hopefully you didn’t sell him yet after a 0-5
Nice babe stats though man
-
Hornsby has been my MVP in these All Timer moments. Through 31 games he already has 6 walk off HRs and plenty of XBHs

I just recently created an early Mariners arod as well. What swing did you use?
-
Seaver has been solid, let up 2 runs, 1 was my mistake on a pitch... Hornsby is hitting 500 in two games, pretty solid for me... In 2 rs games and 1 event, I have one hit with Ruth... 3 warning tracks.. I think I'm pressing with him, I spent Soo much time getting him, I'm pressing to produce.... Same with trout for me..

Hornsby was so clutch for me in this program. So many 2 out hits/rbis. Love his swing

Haha I feel you there. I was like that when I got mantle. I was pressing too much. Now I’m up to .360 with his prestige. But glad you are enjoying Tom terrific and Hornsby

I haven't played RS much the last few seasons, so I'm starting at 450. Played first game last night using Maddux. 8 IP w/17k's. He gave up one 2 run HR, but I gotta greedy throwing breaking pitches down knowing that's what the guy was waiting on. He was dotting everything though which seemed odd for AS level games. Have you used him at HOF levels? If so, how was he? I'm interested to know because it felt like his 88 card was very hittable.
-
Sounds like you had a good game, congrats on the team upgrades OP.

I have not, he will be the next pitcher I will use. I got him over two weeks ago but like I said I took a break from RS once I made WS last year to focus on events prestige grinding and this all timers program. I’ve used Orel and he’s been godly, so I can only imagine Maddux being the same

Appreciate it, have you tried any of those players? If so, how did you do with them?

Agree with you: Babe feels like 19 Babe, dead on.

19 babe was so nice. Babe was actually nice for me last year in the outfield. I just enjoyed my outfield of trout griffey mays better. But with this card having that first base option. I’m in love and won’t be taking him out.

How long did it take you to finish all the Moments?
Havent started yet and am wondering if I just want to clip these out in seperate sessions ir if I just want to 'buckle down' and set aside a block of time and play the whole way through in one sitting.

Thanks. I'm hesitant about doing these. Thats alot of 'playing the cpu' without TA progress.
I do understand they are close to the Jackie Evo set up and you couldn't get TA progress with that; but for some weird reason; if I'm going to play multiple 6 inn/9inn games vs the CPU; id like some TA progress.
