Rob Dibble Extreme

Is that extreme challenge equivalent to Legend because some of the other extreme challenges at Hall of Fame are easier to hit on.
Jansen sucks - 3 crappy pitches and is not accurate at all.

Jansen was tough. I'd think his Slider would be a cutter and finish it's break on the inside portion of the plate...it'd darn near end up hitting me. The last couple HOF rounds I switched to Directional hitting. Bunted my way on with Gwinn or Dominguez or another speedster. Stole 2nd to keep out of the double play and then just tried to dink in the runs or Sac Fly's. Dibble was pretty cake cause his command is trash... Did the same thing against him. Plan on getting walked, bunted, stole, sac bunt over whatever it took. Just played small ball.

I just finnished it earlier today and didn't get the TA points... Anyone else got that bug?

@Sampiesto You sure you didn't do the regular one and got Vouchers instead?

So, ive taken my time on it, did it in 2 days, and am at Dibble right now. It seems that this is the easiest Extreme showdown they've done. So far its all the same every at bat. Either the pitcher gets up 0-2 or down 3-0. The first scenario he'll almost alway guarentee throw 3 balls that arent even close. the 3-0 the pitcher will almost always throw 2 pitches right down the middle, with an occasional 4-0 walk. Very few dots. i struggled with the past 2 years, but this one was pretty easy. I was worried about Verlander, but no outlier he's average at best, plus his Curve hangs. I was also worried about Kenley, but he 4-0 walked my leadoff guy, and well a stolen base, 2 sac flies later game over. Dibbles control is low, so i'll take the first pitch and see where he goes.

does anyone realize Randy Johnson, Rob Dibble and many others never actually threw 100 mph lol
why do they in this game? -
In the prime of his career, Johnson's fastball was clocked as high as 102 mph (164 km/h), with a low three-quarters delivery (nearly sidearm). Internet disagrees

I did the final show down against dibble last night 2 pitches it was over. He threw 2 sliders down the pipe. Blackmon hit a double and Chili Davis hit a no doubter. Again. It’s the easiest of all the extreme showdowns I have played
