I did the NL one today and against Alcantara, I had two of those liners to first, tag them runner double plays. It was unreal. Still managed to win, but seriously???

I am a fan of showdown. Gotta draft smart and set up lineup for challenge. Helps to have speed on your bench. I beat NL in one try tonight. I'm kind of a big deal!

Try Exit velocity perks. Also I like vision bonus for when you get behind in the count.
This is correct. All exit velo are necissary. Contact and vision are secondary. Also dont pick the 7th inning or later perks since there is no 7th inning lol

Exit velocity perks, power on all of your starters and speed on the bench for pinch running. Look at the pitcher that you're going to be facing and set your lineup accordingly.

The 7th inning ones are active in the boss battles, and are among the best perks

Why does the ball die like it does in showdown?
mate build your team with no regard for position - so just only power hitters except a normal catcher ok
then only use Exit Velocity perks only
allow the CPU to throw as many pitches as possible - wait all the time until 2 strikes before swinging and hold it down there - you will tire the CPU out
this is a guaranteed W if you do it this way - hope it helps ya

Pitcher confidence.
This is one of my biggest issues with the game they always have way too much confidence for no reason. That and outfielders standing at the warning track for every at bat.

The only guy I had a real problem with was Bednar. fML like no matter what I did it didn’t matter soft fly outs everywhere -

This... and the last 3 showdowns have been all boss battles, so basically activated throughout the entire run. I also like getting the exit velocity on normal swings diamond perk.
