How Are People Getting These Cards So Fast?

How are cards that were just released within the last hour for sale -- like Randy Johnson 99, Jackie Robinson 99, and David Ortiz 99? It takes 45 minutes to play a game on Weekend Classic and 15 minutes to play 3-inning games. How is it possible for people to earn enough points to get these cards this quickly -- in the amount of time to play basically one game or 3 3-inning games? I don't see how it's done. Can someone please explain?
Saved the conquest maps, and Mini Seasons from the last inning, that combined with the inning voucher, the exchanges and the 1st drop missions and I'm already at the 1st boss pack.

@samguenther1987_PSN yeah but Randy and Jackie are WC rewards

How does that work, when you say you saved the Conquest Maps, etc.? You saved them to play or had one out left or something to complete them? Not clear how you'd get enough points -- even with the vouchers -- to get to the first boss in an hour. Please explain, thanks!

@macdaddy-o_PSN yeah they didn’t do some maps and programs so they could get innings xp. I am 135k with exchanges and vouchers and I’ve only played about an hour.

You finish all but one tile, can be a blank one, until the new inning starts. You usually get 5K in XP for completing the map. You do that with 5-6 maps; thats 25-30K in XP.
You play a Mini Seasons and save the Championship game until the new Inning starts. You play that game and you get that XP towards the new Inning.

The more astonishing thing is how many have bosses to P5 already!

Also I didn't even include the August Spotlight program which gives you another 5,000 XP and the new player programs which give you 30,000 XP.
In short it shouldn't be hard for people to be at 200XP in the 7th inning program with only a little play time.

Of course. How could I forget BR.
I'm at 138,521 and only had the 5K from the Beach Ball map as a jump-start. -
This is a byproduct of the “wheel of sh*t” at the end of the inning progressions. Far more rewarding to sandbag XP and speed up the next inning’s rewards.

It's not really a 'wheel,' lol.
It's shaped like a circular spirally train track route layout from 'Train Sim World,' but once you press Start, you get a 'whoosh,' and enter a vortex, an MRI machine sort of, then either study the pattern, or close your eyes and press, hoping the MRI machine/Vortex grants you anything but Flatliners, and Ballin'Is A Gold, or what i call 'Deluxe' packs: 'Deduct' packs, because the poo you pull deducts from your euphoria of earning the pack in the 1st place.......
Sorry for the long post. I was drinking a Modelo beer and wackiness ensued. I used to drink O.E. when i was younger. Image the wackiness after that!! -
@TheGoaler_PSN
I can tell. However, in the strangest of explanations you did make a good point
