50 wins and I got 5 quick sell golds for my trouble out of the Ballin' packs at the end of the rainbow. If I ever see Polo Grounds load up on my screen again, I may gently place down my controller, walk out my front door, and head down the road to sad music...

I don’t mind polo but you have to have fast outfielders to survive playing there
I don't know if I played any opponents with slow outfielders. I can't count how many perfect/perfect flyouts I had from left to right center. Everything in the gaps was getting tracked down and rarely were balls getting over anyones head. It evens out since I hit my fair share of BS homeruns down the line, but I am definitely ready for more traditional games again.

I think the 25 win reward is worth the headache, but it's not the most fun event, for sure.

Man I'm at 5 and stopping at 25 if I ever get there. Maybe I'll go to 30, depends. I'm not that good and only play the event for like an hour a day.

I just got Jasson and forfeited my 9-0 run, F that shite I'm outa there.
lol you made it 9-0 I usually just quit out at after 5-6 wins. Events are so random I hate when I am killing someone and bam last inning all of a sudden they hit 4 Hr and walk me off.

I didn't have Familia or Hamilton yet from those bonus packs, so I thought I would suck it up and try for a few more wins past the 25. I actually did get Familia, but got the base round on the other pack so I picked up Hamilton from the market. When the new program dropped I needed 10 online wins, and since I already finished the BR program I figured 10 event wins would go faster than ranked. By the time I got that far...why not just finish it?
It was definitely a frustrating grind at times, especially towards the end. I did enjoy using some cards like Brian Roberts, Ronny Mauricio, and Robert Puason who don't start on my ranked team. I was actually hitting over .500 with Roberts for the majority of the event. He may have finished around .480. If I didn't have Jackie Robinson at 2nd, I would probably add him to my regular team.

all my PPs were lineouts or ground outs to the infield

I literally spent the last 12 hrs grinding, got to 17 wins. But for me, all-star, is above what I usually play so for me this is difficult but it will help me be better... I hope.
