Where would one find a Mike Schmidt card this year? Is he the Phillies collection reward?

Yes

So what's the go-to hitting style for wanting to get better at the game? I'm an Xbox user so The Show is still fairly new to me on this platform. (only played 1 month last year) Is it the default placing the circle where the pitch goes method?

Forgive my ignorance.

Step 1 Get on youtube and find some hitting tips videos.
Step 2 Practice

I like mike but every older player seems like their swing is way too slow

Low ball hitter, and up and away.
got to take the same approach as a lefty hitter, but not down and in more middle down and down away. and he ll also go with the pitch and smash middle away and up and away to right center.

This makes so much sense.
I just missed so many homers, even at Shippett because of this. This is with the low Diamond one from earlier.
I do plan on getting this Cracked version soon and was wondering how I'd do.

Bomb in his first at bat and a five rib game.....been waiting for his card....easily parted with the 100k for that card. Got end game c, 2b, 3b, ss, closer and one starter.....not bad at all. Time to just accumulate stats

BTW, if you've been so long involved you've probably heard of IRC? I started one of the biggest/busiest channels of the late 90's. #Illinois. The original use of a SM hashtag AFAIK.

Oh mIRC and ICQ were the days. I remember going to #videosgames, which looking back has a number of known people in-games that would be in there often.

On another note why hasn't this thread been acknowledged?

Been sent to more DD focused people. I'm not the right person to answer any of those questions.

Hey Collin, what is the inconvenience for you to provide that bottom answer in the actual thread? Like I'm seriously trying to understand your line of thinking in this, but I just can't. It doesn't make sense. I have been tagging and asking for updates for 15 straight days with 0 replies. And then you figured "you know what, let me provide a short answer to someone else in a completely different thread while I continue to ignore the actual thread". Maybe you can help me understand that process, because I really don't get it.

I’m always up for a theme team game with my Red Sox team. I’m using it in ranked seasons. They are stacked. But I’m out the rest of tonight

I never contact swing but I recently I had a 14 pitch at bat where I eventually walked. I just couldn’t put the ball in play. My point is that you can’t assume contact swing because your opponent is fouling off pitches.

Well I mean the ball should of went over

Well I have a Phillies theme team and I don’t wanna over pay

If you're willing to grind BR, you could get him for less through the program.

Not only less, but likely with a profit
