1st Event win........EVER

Yep, I hit a Homerun with Devers and was dashboarded. Please tell me this is common. I am not good at all. But a few quick easy wins never hurt. This is the first time I've tried events.

Extremely common.

I ended up winning 2 more quick ones. I know they won't always be like that. But it was a nice way to get me committed to these events. So, newbie question, on a 2 part event, what changes in part 2, just the rules and who you can use or do rewards change as well? Thanks.

Usually the card series you can build your team from. If an event that has 6 inning games with quick counts its a safe bet that the parameters will change to 3 inning games without quick counts. Difficulty often changes. Things like that. The event restrictions will be shaken up.

This is the only video game I've played in like 5 years. Sure I'd love to improve...which I have, at the beginning of the year, I couldn't navigate the menu. We all have different skills dude, we can't all be Barry Bonds with the Sliders turned to 11 facing Mach 12 fastballs. You do you boo.

Don’t waste your time and energy, he doesn’t play DD and yet he is here in the DD section trying to talk down on new players. Guaranteed that if you give him a god squad on DD he will suck and struggle to hit on legend speeds. Playing offline franchise with sliders turned on is way easier than playing online DD against 125 H/9

Yikes. Even between 4-6 am depending on time zones this dude can’t stop thinking about DD.

I had the same thing happen. Got 7 quick wins. Then faced off against the gooniest of goons for about 10-15 games in a row.

Huh? So play at the settings I have been for the past 4 years?. So you want me to play normally?..okay I'll continue to do so, thanks

Josh play someone on AS in a friendly and use a scope to hit with and see how you do big boy. You can hold your controller in one hand and a hot pocket in the other you DD newbie.

Do you face live series cards or do you face guys with 125 H/9, 100 Control and 100 B/B with an outlier fastball, a 94-96 mph sinker and a 99 break on off speed pitches?
If you do good, if you don’t then just be aware that your maxed out pitch speeds is the setting we use to practice before going into RS HOF and Legend games

Thanks bud, I'm nervous to play tonight and see the facade go up in flames but if I can knock out 3-4 wins a day, I can actually get Judge and Vlad before the new game releases haha.
We should play a friendly sometime if you're around this weekend. Hope you're well dude.

Any suggestions on good silver pitchers with great pitch mixes?

@Ericulous1_PSN Absolutely!
I rarely used starters, but I had these guys ready: Kluber, DMay, and Civale for their pitch mixes. I never used them though.
The bullpen I used was: Sale (funk), Chapman (gas), Andres Munoz (gas), BWags (good per 9s), Doval (funk), John Franco (deception), and Graterol.
And of course, the controversial move of Ohtani from the box to the mound.
