The Sandlot is good but much better there are. 61* Field of Dreams Bull Durham The Natural Extended version A League of their Own Moneyball Eight Men Out For Love of the Game 42 The Rookie Mr Baseball Major League Pride of the Yankees
Wasnt that tough honestly. Use Power swing and start bat location low to elevate for HRs. If you need a SB, stop at 1B on a gapper. Stealing is easy. Just wait for move home and move stick right quickly. No need to anticipate. Just be quick. I hit a lot of HRs in this. Also hit quite a few with a 3-2 Count. So be patient.

My favorite is either major league or field of dreams, depending on whether I wanna laugh or I'm feeling sentimental lol. Unpopular opinion: Bull Durham is one of the worst movies I've ever seen, baseball or otherwise. I don't get how it always winds up on best of lists.
Well if you played minor league ball, it might hit home a little bit more. I was playing in the Carolina League the year it came out in 1988. Played many times at that exact ballpark. They had filmed summer scenes the winter before. Notice the cold air fog when guys would breathe. I believe it was released in May 1988 and the stands were packed once the movie came out. It was like a carnival there. Lots of fun. I loved the scene when the guys needed a night off so they flooded the field the night before. When I watch Bull Durham now, its like a time capsule back to 1988.
Idiots. 200k in stubs equates to $200 in real money. So yeah, if it happened to me, I would be ticked too. Give these people a break that had these issues. I havent had any issues that i have noticed personally, but im not ignorant enough to harp on those who have.

For them. Never stayed overnight in Durham. Just a day trip from WS. Cool to see the exact unis in the movie.
Yeah they need to update his speed to 85.
@x-Alec_J-x said in Angels commit to wear masks and take precautions.:
Unless you are 65+ or have prior health issues, its no more fatal than the average flu. The sooner young healthy people....like pro athletes....get out and start living, the sooner we have complete herd immunity. They are far more likely to get killed on the car on the way to the stadium than die from Covid-19. That doesnt stop them from playing. Virtually everything you have heard about this virus is overblown or pure media driven panic porn lies. They include positive anti body but asymptomatic patients -- meaning a person who is not sick -- in the positive test statistics. The fans are even going to games again in Japan and Taiwan, without masks in many places. If you are a young healthy person, you need to go out and live. There will never be a vaccine, and the more we delay natural herd immunity, the bigger than chance of a mutation or dangerous result from weakening our immune systems. Dont sneeze in anyone's face, Wash your hands, be a responsible adult, and we will all be just fine. Cancelling life will only make the suffering worse in the long term.

Another loser Trump Orangutan lemming. The man is a Psychopath and not fit for office. He is killing people with his lack of virus policies. Every word out of his mouth is a lie and the spin is only for re-election. The man is a disgrace and he will be kicked out of office in Nov.
Betts live card has plenty of power middle in. Very quick bat. Great D and can play 2B too. Same level card as Trout and Yelich in many ways.

The Sandlot is THE best baseball move ever, bar none. Fact. Fact, I was older than all the kids when that movie came out, if i was a few years younger, i may have liked it more. I'm an 80s kid not a 90's kid. I like it, but it is not even close to my favorites, it maybe in the top 10. Proof this site needs a downvote option!

Age will make a difference to current perception. When The Natural came out, I was in college playing ball in So Cal, and it seemed kinda corny to me. As time has gone on, the nostalgia side of me really loves it now.
The Sandlot was fun but not even in the same league as many others IMHO. But then I was in my 30s when it came out. But I could still relate to neighborhood youth ball very well. Just felt the writing and direction not up to par. The Bad News Bears was a similar movie but better casting, writing, and direction.
But its all good. Anything that you enjoy and brings back fond memories is a great thing.
Need more Topps Now players so I can finish and get Trout 99.
And right about the time you think you know who the best players are, the nerf gods appear.
Rule of thumb. Do not lock in anything unless you absolutely know you do not need the flexibility to sell it going forward, giving up the potential for large market profits. This is how SDS gets you to spend more on stubs.
Yeah i had 2 routine plays on fly balls to the OF where the fielder would not control correctly and the ball dropped. One was Lofton. Very predetermined feeling. Playing in Simulation mode Allstar against AI. It was right after I hit a 2 run HR to take the lead. Felt like the comeback code was in hyperdrive.
Analog Pitching with Outfield view Hitting strikezone 2. Pinpoint is too mechanical/arcadish. If you have sticks that are not 100%, forget about it. Ive been using Analog since it was an option. As a former pro pitcher, its as good as it gets.
I have a PS4 Pro and play on a 65" LG Oled screen. I havent been able to find a PS5 yet. Ive been very impressed withe the visuals and gameplay on MLB 20, but 21 seems to be a step back so far in play offline. Visually not quite as smooth. Player faces are not as detailed, and gameplay feel has a lag to it at times. Definitely when hitting. Not as responsive when pressing button to swing. Constantly behind compared to 20. Been playing The Show since 2007. Prestige player in 20. Watching videos of PS5 gameplay, I really dont see much of any improvement over my PS4 Pro. Makes me think I might want to hold off longer on PS5. I would like the stadium creator though.
Supply and Demand. The more people want Trout will push the price up. Question is will there be that many more customers on Monday or did everyone buy already?
The toughest had to be Gehrig and 4 extra base hits in one game. Because the AI would pitch around you. I finally had a Yankee team barrage that scored 17 Runs in 3 Innings and Gehrig hit his 4 HRs in those 3 innings. But it took 2 weeks to finally beat that one.

No doubt its a fine. Until its blatantly obvious.
