Not sure which mode you are talking about but in most cases you would control the runners so wouldn't you be holding them at 2nd?

I’m talking about DD any non player locked mode against the CPU. I’m not sure about online because I don’t play that enough. I’m holding L1 the whole time and the game will automatically hold the runner from rounding second and going to third. It doesn’t do it every time but probably like 60% of the time. I hit one to the power alley at Polo Grounds, with Cedric Mullins, and it held him at second.

And when it does it I can’t override it even though I’m holding L1.

Not sure what the deal is.

i know exactly what you are talking about - against the CPU - stupid [censored] missions which have CPU runners preventing you from running to the next bag - yes it is stupid as hell

while we are on the subject too - what is with that Topps Now Heany moment - strike 3 guys in the side - ok EASY AS A CONCEPT - except SDS puts a 99 RUNNER ON FIRST BASE - so besides trying to K out the side, I have to wonder if my mission is going to tank because the runner STEALS AND GETS PICKED OFF

[censored] dumb stuff

That's not what I'm talking about. I mean in a Play VS CPU, Conquest, or Mini Season game. I hit something that would most likely be a triple and hold the L1 button (advance all) and the game will automatically hold me at second to keep me from going to third. I swear it happens like 60% of the time.

ok well then i have 0 clue what you are talking about - my frustrations come from the stupid offline grind CPU players who hold you back from running bags on missions - also the other moment i said with SDS putting a 99 runner on 1st when the mission is to strike out 3 ppl in an inning

Can't log in....down detector says users having errors starting around 9am EST

Thanks for the heads up. I can’t stand running player locked and not being able to tell where the ball actually is in the OF.

guys like this who bunt constantly will lose in RS if you just be patient - throw them absolute junk high and in or high and away - i don't even need to move my infield for this - they get annoying bunts sure but just focus on getting them out as fast as possible and they rarely will score more than 1 or 2 runs tops in a game - all you need to do is replay each HR you do so you can make them eat it during your eventual W

And this is why online play is horrible. Toxic vs Toxic.

you've gotta be kidding me - i like to watch my homers - if you can't stomach that you are weak af - most of you guys just quit once you're down a run anyways

Depends on the HR. Do you really need to watch a 350 ft HR that barely clears the wall? I'm on the "act like you've hit a HR before side". A 450'+ HR? Yea, I like to watch those whether I hit them or give them up.

I’ll quit out if I don’t like my team. I won’t auto redraft but if I don’t like my team I’ll go in with the mindset of looking for an easy win or 2. If the matchup doesn’t make me think it’s easy, I’ll quit and find another matchup knowing at the end of the day my lineup was bad and I’ll just redraft.

Not just moments. During the final showdown I wanted to change my number 7 I think and it didn’t let me

@tusken_raiderz said in Changing Steal and Speed Attributes:

Ok so I’m not crazy. I noticed this too, only with tatis jr. Just thought maybe I misread the numbers but it happened more than once.

Yeah I don’t get it. Is it because of the different handedness of the pitchers? But even if how would that have an effect on his speed or stealing ability?

@dewrock_psn said in Missing Secondary Positions:

Of course then again, Roberto Clemente is a card from 1972, where he only played RF but he has all OF positions as secondary.

There is different rules for each card series. I do know all of them. I know with Signature Series for secondary position they have had to play the majority of 1 season at a position to be eligible

@dewrock_psn said in Mickey Mantle:

Just curious but why is the Mantle card from the program only a gold 80? It’s from a year he won MVP.

Because the card itself is a hungover version of Mantle the night after a bender.

My current DD squad is so bad I'm considering using this card, but I'm worried he'll be a bad influence

@SaldanaBros5 said in AJ Ramos:

Never do live series collection near a roster update

this is why I always do the Live Series collection first and sink all my stubs into collecting everyone. I did get lucky and pull a deGrom and a Bellinger on my way but the rest was just grinding the market and earning stubs from moments/anyway I could. must be annoying to get all the teams and divisions nearly done only for a 47 rated common to pop up and thwart all your plans. I don't envy anyone in that position!!

@dewrock said in Lag on offense:

Is anyone else having lag when batting? I didn't play yesterday but today it's crazy when I'm hitting. It's like I'm swinging thru water. I'm late on everything. The PCI was lagging and it was lagging thru the menu at times.

Is it just me?
98 out 100 times

They added more missions to the program. Play 42 innings with Dodgers. Exchange 1B

@Kovz88 said in Squad Building:

Go to manage squad, click on any player, hit square. This will open the filter menu. Then go down to team, scroll to the team you want and now it will only show players from that team that you own. It will stay on as you go through the other positions as well.

Jeez I had no idea. Thanks a lot!

@MrGamebred said in Stage 2 TA Points Question:

For whatever reason, they're giving double points in that mode. Get it while the gettin' is good.

Cool. Good to know!

does this work with online rated?

@dewrock said in 1st Inning Program:

Hi

Am I the only one with no missions on the 1st Inning Program?

Thanks

Yes

Any example of missions available to you that I'm missing? Boss battles anything?
