    RE: Docters orders don't play showdown.

    Get those programs done and those cards collected. Try Showdown today!

    Talk to your doctor to see if Showdown is right for you. Don't take Showdown if you have a history of heart problems or high blood pressure. Side effects may include hypertension, loss of voice, headaches, strained eyes, broken heart, insomnia, stress, heavy use of expletives, depression, increase of alcohol consumption, and general despair. Reports of broken controllers have happened. If you experience these symptoms, stop taking Showdown and call your doctor right away.

    Improve your game by getting close to throwing it out. Ask your doctor about Showdown!

    RE: What does pitcher confidence do?

    Pitcher confidence usually determines how well a pitcher performs. It does help with accuracy, but it also helps with pitch effectiveness and how difficult it is to get strikeouts or induce other types of outs. The higher your confidence, the more strikes and strikeouts you can get, and the less hits and walks you allow. It affects the pitcher more than the hitter, but it does affect how easy/hard it is for the batter to hit against you. Thus, it affects how well you perform against a pitcher when you're batting—it's why that if you swing at literally everything he throws at you, it's going to be very difficult to get a hit.

    Pitcher confidence increases in varied degrees by doing the following— Getting strikes, causing swings and misses, getting strikeouts, and getting outs in general. Also, when a batter fouls off a pitch, it counts as a strike, so it also raises confidence. Confidence increases more if the batter swings at a pitch that's out of the zone for a strike, for example (basically, the more you stupid you make the batter look, the more your confidence goes up).

    Pitch confidence decreases due to the following—The batter takes a pitch for a ball, if you allow a hit of any kind (and the greater the hit, the more confidence you lose—allowing a HR causes more confidence to be lost than allowing a single), if errors of any kind are allowed, allowing a runner to score, hitting a batter, walking a batter, throwing wild pitches, or throwing passed balls. Stolen bases might affect confidence, but I haven't payed enough attention to be sure. Basically, if things hit the fan, pitcher confidence goes down the drain.

    Another important note—confidence not only affects overall performance, but it also affects performance with each pitch in your pitcher's repertoire. For example, if you get a strikeout with a nasty curveball, your pitcher is going to be more confident in using that pitch. That, in turn, increases the pitch's speed, accuracy, and break. If you throw the curveball and the batter hits it for a HR, then you are going to lose confidence with that pitch and will have trouble throwing it accurately and for strikes.

    Stadiums That YOU Want to be Added Next Year (Hey, SDS!)

    I must admit that I've been rather disappointed with the selection of classic stadiums over recent games, which aside from one or two additions (Humphrey Metrodome), has been more or less the same set.

    I've been dying to see Tiger Stadium, the hallowed field at the corner of Michigan and Trumbull, added to the game as a classic stadium. It amazes me that it hasn't yet. Tigers fan or not, you can't deny how iconic it was. C'mon, SDS!

    I also think they need to work on minor league stadiums... need to add ones like BB&T Park, where the Charlotte Knights play, and include the Charlotte skyline in the background, that'd be nice.

    So since we still haven't gotten a custom park feature, what stadium do you want added in next year's game? Classic or otherwise?

    PSA—Please Sell Your Extra AJ Ramos!

    For those who aren't in the loop, there are no sell orders for Rockies RP AJ Ramos. For those of us trying to complete the Live Series collection, this is a major issue. There are other players like Ramos who have no sell orders, either, so help us all out and sell those too.

    Basically the three players you should sell are:

    • AJ Ramos (Rockies)
    • Daniel Bard (Rockies)
    • Elliot Soto (Angels)
    • Paolo Espino (Nationals)

    Please do not exchange or quick sell your spare AJ Ramos, Soto, or Espino. Sell him to us for 1000 stubs on the market! We greatly appreciate it!

    RE: Good PCI/Good Swing problems

    @Mugno_Sports said in Good PCI/Good Swing problems:

    @iBonafideScrub_ said in Good PCI/Good Swing problems:

    Good PCI placement and good swings mean nothing in this game. I find myself losing games to people who swing early(yellow) to pitches down and away and still hit the ball out of the park but I get perfect/perfect and fly out to the warning track or ground out to the SS. This is beyond frustrating

    Please watch this, because i share your frustation
    https://youtu.be/PfFmuEM68rA

    And that right there is why I never picked up this year's game. Who wants a game that's based off of RNG and not skill... makes no sense. Saved myself a lot of brain cells by sticking with MLB 19 and not getting MLB 20.

    Yet Another Unhandled Server Exception has Occurred!

    I just got a new node, so I have screaming internet now. No complaints until just now, when I was in the middle of taking spaces on a conquest map.

    Boom! Just as I was about to start a game to conquer the last stronghold, an unhandled server exception occurs. Don't tell me this is the same garbage as what we had to deal with on election night.

    It kicked me out of DD and it won't let me back in. Is this happening to anyone else?

    EDIT: I just checked PSN and down detector, and PlayStation's services are all in the green. This is on SDS. @Collin_SDS @Victor_SDS, what is the reason for this outage?

    EDIT: Everything is now back up for me. But seriously, this stuff has to stop.

    RE: A's and Astros not practicing social distancing

    Update: MLB has suspended the Asterisk's hitting coach for 20 games. They also suspended Laureano for 6 games, but Laureano is appealing his suspension.

    I hope they grant his appeal.

    Miguel Cabrera is Disappointing

    As a Tigers fan I am outraged. I finally managed to get him through the player program, but he is a complete letdown so far. It's been several at-bats and he is nowhere near getting a hit.

    This is bull [censored]. What am I doing wrong, or did they really screw things up with this card?

    Cant change the fences in any way(except color)

    Elaborate please. Are you saying that I can only use their presets, or is there a limit to the dimensions that the fences can be?

    @red_ted_is_back said in "Invalid Stadium":

    Custom stadiums can’t be used in any DD vs CPU modes I don’t think.

    I’m assuming it’s to counter boosting etc

    Ticks me off. Since they didn't ever add Tiger Stadium to the classic stadiums, I resolved to make it myself, yet I can't even play in it with my DD team, which I plan to put all-time Tigers greats in?

    They need to AT LEAST tell me what part of my stadium is in violation.

    "Invalid Stadium"

    So I worked my [censored] off all day today making an exact (as possible) replica of Tiger stadium, with the field dimensions that it had and everything.

    I was giddy with excitement as I went to play against the CPU in my new creation, only to be told that "Invalid Stadium. The selected stadium has features that are not allowed in competitive modes. Online play with this stadium cannot continue. Please select a different stadium."

    You want me to select a different stadium because its invalid, even though it sat at the corner of Michigan and Trumbull for almost 100 years!? Are you kidding me?

    What's more frustrating is that the game isn't telling me what is specifically wrong with the stadium, what isn't allowed, so I have no idea how to fix it and make it so I can play there. Is it because it's 440 feet at center field? What is it??

    SDS? Please explain? Can someone help me?

    What modes for you play to get your XP, stub, and Stars (even though those wont be back)

    Conquest conquest conquest. And moments, but only if I really want whatever card I get for doing them, because moments are painful.
