I can't stress this enough - GET RID OF THIS RIGGED GARBAGE.

First of all, good luck getting the perfect game.

The CPU will foul off the most RIDICULOUS pitches. Guys with <50 VISION AND CONTACT will still foul off pitches. Their PCI is massive and somehow still foul off pitches that the graph shows they're not close to.

Good luck with accuracy as your SP NEVER hits the plate.

Last, and I can't stress this enough; the UMPIRE IS AWFUL. I've had pitches completely in the strike zone on a 2 strike count and it's a ball. The next pitch is almost certainly hit for a base hit. EVERY. TIME.

Get rid of this option already. It's not worth it. The SP NEVER gets the benefit of the doubt and it's clearly rigged to screw the player over. It's a time waster, if there truly ever was one.

I just used him in my NL Showdown and he crushed it for me!

That’s cause Showdowns suck! They are glitchy., hitting becomes impossible, bad fielders make spectacular plays, cpu leads off and auto steals and tags up your runners, perfect/perfects are into a glove or warning track... shall I continue listing?
Ready... set... GO WITH THE ATTACK COMMENTS!!!

100% true! I can't tell you how often I'm squared up to a ball and get OKAY contact result... or a MASSIVE AMOUNT of pop ups; ON VETERAN. Then I go into any other game mode for All-Star difficulty and don't even have nearly as many pop up results. It's pretty obvious there are sliders placed in the CPU's favor when it comes to Showdown.

At least Tampa Bay is getting some good cards....

Look at the Pirates. I want to play a strictly play as a "theme team" and I can't without using A TON of bronze players
