    Yeah - rewards are terrible. Played 3 innings and opponent quit in 0-0 affair. Not sure I blame him as I see a lot of extra innings and it’s probably just not worth the grind.

    I don’t want to be that guy but aren’t bunts and bloop hits kinda the point? You don’t have to play it

    You are "that guy"! Congrats. The final points were tallied and you saying "you dont have to play it" put you over the edge vs your opponents. your summers eve themed trophy is on its way.

    They should make extra innings follow 2020 rules and start a runner in 2b for this event. Its fun, but i have had a few games go 5+ innings already

    It's bad but it's really not that bad either. It's on Hall of Fame so it's not a completely insufferable slog and it's a good opportunity to prestige pitchers.

    The people complaining about this one are quite literally the ones that complain EVERY time an event is on HOF

    Why do the rewards have to be so terrible on top of not fun parameters. Like if I had to grind this and honus was at 100, It would be fun and worth it. But a trash reliever and Cather who did not even play during the deadball era and one of the games worst pitchers as rewards ? Why even play, it’s just a prestige pitcher and warm up for ranked event , and for a whole month, that was fun. Epic idea to keep people engaged in the game

    "Not fun" being key here ....
    This company has made many head scratching business decisions this year in game and out.

    I think the stadium lock should be a classic stadium or Fenway and Wrigley as both were built in the dead ball era. Personally I wish it was Polo grounds bout there is no inning boss that you can use this event to prestige and only Gywnn I think for the FOTF to prestige

    After about 30 minutes of setting my lineup for the first game, thinking about the pain of the grind, I just decided I was just going to download UFC 4 😂

    My only issue with this event is I know what my opponents are going to do, but then still get glitched by the game... I put on bunt defense and it won’t let me control the guy that makes the play.. I know they’re steeling and my catcher won’t throw to second...

    If you enjoy 0-0 games going into the 10th inning, this event is for you. At least you won't have to watch your opponent's HR replay.

    I like the event. Pitching is my favorite part of baseball both back when I used to play and in this game . this year i feel like it is impossible to dominate a game with pitching unless you play someone who is just completely undisciplined in their approach. I still love pitching in ranked because it feels like a chess match knowing if I don’t catch the batter completely off guard I’m going to be watching home run replays but I appreciate that in this event I can just go out and throw and my 99 overall pitcher can actually miss a bat on a pitch other than a high sinker or a perfectly timed change up

    I had someone mention this to me so I will send it forward. See if your tv has a "game mode". Its under the picture menu category. Mine was on "Vivid", like the brightest option there was. Switched to game mode and huge difference in the day games

    It’s the first event that you don’t see the same team built around power hitters every time.

    I guess that’s why you hate it...
