@SaveFarris_PSN Thank you.

Anybody happen to have a list of the players in the Chase Packs (1-19)?

@dap1234567890_PSN No fails, but I was tempted to skip the last Mini-Boss.

@Pergo_MLBTS said in Here are your 30 All-Star Team Affinity cards and other reveals:

Just finished up the Showdown. Pretty quick and easy. One tip if you haven't played it yet, even though its Webb at the end there are a couple of lefty bosses at the beginning, so not a bad idea to grab a few righties or switch hitters. But then it becomes all righties for the last 4 or 5 (I forget exact numbers). The pitchers are decent but as with all showdowns you'll get plenty of fastballs down the middle and hanging breaking balls to hit. I think the Lindor ASG card was by far my best hitter in this run.

I just finished the All-Star Game 2025 Showdown too and here’s who I faced.

Max Fried (LHP)
Tied game, No Runners on Base, 10 outs

Kris Bubic (LHP)
Down 2 Runs, No Runners on Base, 14 outs

Jacob deGrom (RHP)
Down 5 Runs, Bases Loaded, 13 outs

Zach Wheeler (RHP)
Down 1 Run, No Runners on Base, 11 outs

Paul Skenes (RHP)
Down 3 Runs, Runner on 2B, 14 outs

Yoshinobu Yamamoto (RHP)
Down 4 Runs, Runners on 1B and 3B, 15 outs

Logan Webb (RHP)
Down 3 Runs, No Runners on Base, 27 outs

I get the feeling that Ketel Marte will be the 2025 All-Star Collection reward.

@GoldenGamingKM_PSN

Here are Sammy’s numbers with the Tier 3 boost from the Nico Hoerner captain card.

100 Contact vs R
92 Contact vs L
125 Power vs R (gets +15, but 125 is the max)
102 Power vs L
101 Batting Clutch
60 Plate Vision (gets +15 & goes up to 75)
71 Fielding (gets +10 & goes up to 81)

… IMO, the Soriano card is a better boost.

@JediEl1823_PSN said in Sammy Sosa:

I like the program, Sammy's gonna be my RF when it's done.

That said, thi[censored]ting a homer off of Grant Anderson moment can eat expired ice cream.

Sammy’s numbers get a nice upgrade with the Tier 3 boost from the Alfonso Soriano captain card.

100 Contact vs R (gets +15 goes up to 115)
92 Contact vs L (gets +15 & goes up to 107)
125 Power vs R
102 Power vs L
101 Batting Clutch (gets +15 & goes up to 116)

… and even better if you parallel him.

@Blind_Bleeder_PSN said in Screen Size Issue:

@kadylac1_PSN @davidb69_PSN I have my PS5 set to 2160p, VRR Automatic 120Hz Output Automatic, ALLM Automatic, Video Transfer Rate Automatic, HDR Always On, Deep Color Output Automatic, and RGB Range Automatic.

My TV is set to HDR Select Mode - Game Optimizer, Aspect Ration 16:9

The Game Optimizer is showing 119 FPS sitting in the Conquest menu. VRR is on, 12 Black Stabilizer, and Low Latency is On.

I hope this helps.

I am not having any issues with the video display - in fact, the game looks quite nice.

Edit: I checked the game optimizer as I hit a pitched ball at Fenway and the FPS still showed 119FPS. I thought the game is supposed to run at 60FPS, isn't it?

Thank a lot man. This totally fixed my issue.

Is anybody having issues with the game screen not fitting and looking zoomed-in? I tried the “Screen & Video” settings on the PS5 and the settings on my TV, but it didn’t help. I tried looking through the MLB The Show 25 settings, but I didn’t see anything for screen size settings. Am I missing something or anybody know how I can fix this issue?

@beatlesnews_PSN said in Halloweek Program:

Does anyone who completed the showdown have a comment about how it was? I’d like to hear a comment or two before I try it. Thank you.

I mostly play offline and the showdown wasn’t too bad. I was able to complete it by doing the following:

*All showdown pitchers are righties, so I drafted mostly left-handed batters. I only drafted right-handed batters when they were the best available card. (for example a 99 card vs low 90s cards)

*I usually wait for 2 strikes before I attempt to swing, so I picked perks that are activated after 2 strikes. I also found the “Vision Boost” perk and the “Trailing After 7 Innings” perk helpful.

*I like to have a player on my bench with 88 speed (or higher) to steal or tag-up in a close game.

*I drafted Bryce Harper’s Live Series card because I hit well with it. Lol.

FYI - Free 99 Milestone Fernando Valenzuela in the Packs Shop.

Will SDS release a new Ohtani card (for MLB The Show 24) if Ohtani is able to become the first 50/50 player?
