I like thinking about playing the game more than actually playing it

I have sandberg he’s great. Defensive range is amazing his for power against both sides of plate. Don’t think u can go wrong either way but can’t wait wit tiger Larkin also.

The new generation of gamers cry and cry and cry. So sad. I’m 35 and been gaming forever. This needs to be patched that needs to be patched. Imagine playing games and some one disconnects and doesn’t get the loss cuz he was winning (mlb the show on ps 2) What about when u would kick a fg in madden people could unplug and replay the Ethernet cord and [censored] up the connection. How about having to play all of the horrible NBA live games that were painful to play?
Stop crying and win games.

We all know that 2k made a horrible baseball game but at this moment I wish they at least made one so we can try it out. I’ve been a part of the show since ps2 days and I’m just lost for words. I wanna quit this game so bad but there’s nothing else to do but play and get frustrated. Why tho why?

Don’t worry you can throw those pitches down the middle. I’ll still find a way to strike out. #dislikethisgame

I’m 36. This is my first year of decline. I can’t see fastballs. Bought a monitor over the weekend. Did not help at all. I’m so lost. This is supposed to be the time of the year I kick [censored] in baseball. Now I’m thinking of possibly going back to nba 2k or finding a new game. It’s hitting the point I’m biting my controller in frustration

@bonion lol yes!! Told my girl she needed to get of the tv I gotta check something out lmao.

35 here. First time can’t hit fastball consistently. Super frustrating still make ws since I play enough games. But yes let’s make an old head league. I’m with it

@Psycho-_-Kill-er are you going directly to the showdown? Not many people can go straight to the end. Even if u do the first 3 missions 4 runs helps out a lot. Especially mentally. To know I need 11 runs in 20 outs eases some of the pressure

Sandberg over posey. Reggie over both

I’m so lost. Ever since the patch I haven’t given up more than 4 runs in my rs grind. I’m at 849

Ugh as a 35 year who does the first time is struggling in MLB this post scares me I still use a TV tho.

I have don’t have Soto yet and don’t want to do showdown is he worth replacing yelich?

I’m 36, have played every year and I am having the same issues for some reason this year. I’ve seen improvements tho but it’s going to take practice. Put the sliders for pitch and breaking ball speeds all the way up. Go to practice mode and put on legend. Pick pitchers with high pitch speeds. I choose Chapman or Newheiser. Go two days or so just practicing with these pitch speeds. I know it seems boring cuz there are no rewards but I promise in the long run it will help. When u hop online the pitches will feel slow.
Just know if u turn off the system you would either have to load the sliders back up or just have to change them urself again. It will not load either he changes automatically

Don’t buy the game. It’s going to get you just as mad

@bonion thanks bro. Appreciate it

So last night I decided to give the game a break. I’ll prolly just do batting practice on legend. I can’t say I’m having a blast complaining about this game but it’s deff more fun then playing. Y’all should try it. And for all those who talk [censored]. Yes I suck at the game. I agree with y’all. It’s the first year I’m bad at the game (been playing since ps2) which makes it all that more frustrating.

@bonion why did you do this to me? I haven’t played the show cuz I can’t catch up with fastballs (first time in like 8 years) Now your gonna get me hyped like this is the reason. Lol I am going to try this and hope it works

@bonion that [censored] helped a lot man I went 2-1 but only cuz I was early on so many pitches. But the 2 I won I hit inside fastball and sinker

That’s the way MLB is now. They just keeping up with the times. Teams would much prefer a player who hits .255 with 40 bombs than a .300 hitter. Plus chicks dig the long ball
