Phil Niekro Card

[plinske_XBL]

I was looking through the legends list on theshow.com and noticed that the only player without a card was Phil Niekro? Any chance of a card coming this year?

Wasn't he a knuckleball pitcher? I hope not. R.A. Dickey next?

Nope. Niekro has always been in the game but hasn't been in DD since 18

Too many people complained. It got so bad everyone would just quit immediately if he was on the mound.

That and the bronze reliever version was used in every single event over and over

Against a knuckler, you go with directional and try to hit everything up the middle (Direction pad straight up or down)
If it's high, let it fly.
If it's low, let it go.

Yeah I hear you. After learning how to hit with zone, and knowing there is absolutely no skill involved in directional, I just can’t go back. I’d rather quit than go back to directional.
