Showdown for me = see how many times you can pop out to the catcher or let’s see how many double plays you can hit into

If you’ve maxed out first inning, you must be a day player...because there ain’t no getting on this broken game between 6-11pm central time in the past two weeks

How can a left handed batter, with a very early swing contact, hit the ball to left field?

I finished it in about five or six tries, my key to it was swinging everyone with X, hit a HR with Grisham and then gappers with Tatis and Machado

The Showdown wasn’t that difficult, as someone who had yet to win any showdown yet in this game ( I’ve probably played 20-25 and lost every one)...completed it in first attempt. Went into the final boss needing to score only three runs

I don’t mind the lack of fielding by the pitcher, if we are talking about the shots right back at them. It seems like a couple times a game the pitcher backhands and snags a ball heading for CF, when realistically there are only a small few that should be making these plays. Watching numerous games per season in MLB, you might see a handful of these plays being made. On The Show, this type of play is routine

They’ll extend the 2xp so that those of us who work during the day and can only play in the evenings get nothing out of it

I suck at showdown, have yet to win any of the more than 20 I have played, so I mainly play offline bs cpu or conquest, and do rival exchanges

i linked my PSN and xbox accounts and now all my inventory stubs and progression is gone from my PSN account! need help asap!

Unlink your account, then sign back in using just the PS logo, once you open up the game your stuf should be back, at least that’s how I retrieved all of my stuff that had disappeared

Trying to get two XBH with Aguilar is frustrating, basically need to hit two HR because dude is slow as an ice wagon

Was playing one of the moments in the Jersey program last night, hit a HR with White Sox, and I didn’t get it in the first half inning, had to pitch the next half inning before getting to hit again. Finally started quitting and restarting after my half of the inning

Watched people play via Twitch all day, just to get home and fire up the game to constant server errors…same BS every [censored] year

It really sucks how fast relievers lose stamina, especially with the rule they have to face three batters…sometimes by the third batter they’re pitching on fumes

I’m not sure if it’s the game or the PS5 console, but I am also loving the quickness to sim games when taking over hexagons, seems like it less than 3 seconds as opposed to 10+ seconds for each in the past

No…first of all I’m on PS4. While playing MLB the show, usually only when I’m hitting, I lose my connection to the game and get a message that the controller disconnected. I have to press the PS button on the remote to reconnect it to the system, and once it reconnects, my batter automatically swings and misses. Again, this happens both online and vs cpu, and never happens when playing any other game.

Does anyone else have problems with their remote control disconnecting from the game? This happens to me several times per game both online and versus CPU.

I don’t see any reason in Moments for the game to start with any base runners, unless it’s an RBI task. Otherwise, like you said the runner who should go first to third on a ball hit to the outfield stops at second and prevents you from stretching a double

Is anyone else getting “player already in use” message when trying to add someone to your lineup? This happened to me twice now, first with 99 playoff Chris Taylor and now with postseason Aaron Hicks. Trying to set an all-postseason lineup and when I click on the Aaron Hicks 91 postseason card it says player is already in use, and there is no other Hicks card in my lineup or on my bench

I’d like to see some kind of 24 hour double xp coin that we could earn and activate at our convenience…for those who might not be able to get onto the game during a double xp weekend, etc.

One thing that I have seen in another gaming companion app, i think it was NBA2k, was a daily prediction page where you would look at the daily game matchups and predict the winner, and correct predictions could earn maybe 5 stubs...just a small way to keep people using the app daily and also keeping up with what’s going on in MLB
