And bunting too…no real professional baseball players bunt.

And it’s actually illegal in college baseball….and I know because I played!!!

Hitting HRs against me at shippet….I chose that stadium for me to hit dingers, not you!!

Stop yelling at us!!!

I’m sure I go against the grain here, but I think anyone who quits should get a loss.

@atlkilla90_psn said in BS packs in show shop:

MLB The Show and San Diego Studios are frauds with these terrible packs they put out in the show shop.. literally have spent countless Stubbs in the shop on headliner packs, chase packs and the other specialty packs they put out and never receive anything of value in return! If I do manage to pull a diamond it’s always the lowest tier possible that I’ve already collected.. you would think they would want to reward players and incentive them to want to keep playing but these packs do the complete opposite and make me think about quitting the game for good. Hopefully they make a change with the algorithm moving forward but definitely not holding my breath for that.

Or just stop buying packs?

@foge011_psn said in The Show series is nothing more than repetitive.:

it's a baseball game, what do you want them to do?

Im with OP on this actually…..every time I play a game it’s like there are “innings” and in one half the opponent pitches and I’m hitting; then we switch and I pitch and they hit. And then we do that over and over until one of us wins.

Like, why can’t we have lightsabers, and wide receivers, and playbooks, and witches/magic, and zombies, and side quests…..it’s like I have to play other games to get something different.

Get it together SDS #shoutouttotheartdepartment

I work for a Federal Law Enforcement Agency. Currently on sick leave though

The drugs are definitely not in the hidden compartment of the master bedroom closet. Definitely not.

There’s always money in the banana stand

This card + mission can both burn.

Please, submit your god pham puns if you understand my pain.

Am I the only one tickled by the irony of “your” v “you’re” incompetence?!?!?

@theu715 said in Majority of The Show's Hitting Approach:

No, the worst is actually when you get up 2 strikes. Dot your pitch on the black 3 times and get check swings that obviously fooled your opponent and they're all called balls. Then they foul off a couple until they draw a walk or get a blooper and then hit a HR with the next batter on a pitch away that they pull for a no doubt HR. Follow it up the next inning when you're hitting and get a perfect/perfect fly out to the warning track with Soto or Griffey.

Stop reading my game history!!!

@nymets1987_psn said in Mini Seasons new stuff?:

Southpaw specialist (strike out 5 players in one game with LHP) – Hidden mission
Now it’s Sho-time (2 XBH in one game with Ohtani) – Hidden mission

Anyone know the rewards?

Is it any Shohei?

I would suspect it would be….imagine excluding a significant portion from achieving this without getting LS ohtani.

Can now confirm topps ohtani counts…but 1 HR and mission showed 1/2

LHP gets you choice pack headliner 19 - awards Robbie Ray (but more likely diamond Indians jersey)

@theblindrhino said in The BIG collection kills the game for me:

I take a few days off if I am sensing burnout. Play GT7 or revisiting Star Wars: Fallen Order.

I had actually beaten fallen order a few months back, so picked up the Lego skywalker saga over the weekend. Had never done a Lego game before, but as a bit of a completionist + SW need this was right up my alley. Expect this will be my backup when I hit these walls with the show.

@mfundercover_psn said in How many have the Live Series collection completed by now?:

Just saw that just over 32k people have Randy at P1, which should give you a good idea of how many people have it done. A lot.

So since he’s available in BR, P1 not the metric I use….I think P2 works as a better reference. Still have BR people, but not on the same scale.

I think I was like 1500 to get him to P1 and that was only through 1 early BR run.

@samguenther1987 said in How many have the Live Series collection completed by now?:

I do and 12 of the George Brett Vouchers, working on finishing Awards, Future Stars and Prime tonight. That would only leave a pick of either the Takashi Ohazaki collection or the cover athletes

not sure of where you stand in completion of either, but I would think TO would be better end reward with ruth; although I did mash with the mauer card in BR early on.

Don’t chase anything inside the zone.

@jbrown51016_psn said in Takashi Series:

So I need 2 more now then, a lot cheaper with the 3 base rounds steadily creeping down. I’m tempted to sell an original for all 3 base, essentially a trade, and save stubs rather than buy 2 base outright.

I’d suspect next program gives out at least 1 pack of the originals so they’ll likely drop in price sooner than later.

@samguenther1987 said in Juan Soto:

Down to a (low) gold, something I thought I would never see. What a rough season for him so far.

pulled him opening day, first card to P5….definitely hurts

@jbrown51016_psn said in Takashi Series:

I’m guessing the Babe collection doesn’t include the new releases?

I would like an answer for this too.

They’re included….need 8 of all available.

Agreed with dragon….I’ll regularly get 5-6 wins, and don’t need to finish all player missions.
