Showdown 2nd Inning Mini Guide
-
Hi All, I see a lot of people struggling with 2nd Inning showdown so I decided to write some of my thoughts and tactics:
-
Draft - Hanley and Schoop a must, power hitters over 60, fireballer RP to score easy closer missions
-
Hitting - I play zone on RS, but find directional easier for showdown and better fits the CPU battle. If you decide to use directional, power hitters pull (arrow towards the hitter) every time, contact hitters no influence
-
Do all the missions and mini battles - it will earn you runs and diamond perks/players to make the final showdown easier, you can skip to the end or semi skip but if you are struggling and reading this guide then do all of them, if you can't put 4 runs with 13 outs, you won't complete the final one either witouth the extra diamonds
-
1st mini boss battle - rearrange your line up to make 123 hitters become 456, so in bases loaded ramirez will still hit clean up
-
2nd mini boss battle - Bieber requires only 1 run so use it to your advantage and don't skip
-
HR mission, on directional pull and up towards the hitter and eventually your hitter will hit a long one if you time it right on a fastball
-
Final showdown, take two strike approach in the beginning to tire pitcher out, Giles is the easiest one to defeat, but once the stamina drops, you need to change the approach and sit on fastballs whenever in the count, tired pitchers will throw more hangers early in the count rather than on 3-2 from my experience
