Ranked Seasons games have me completely drained after playing one full game. I don’t know how some of you can play 3 in a row or more, but kudos.

Grandal. When a catcher is literally one of my 3-4 best hitters, that makes up for other deficiencies.

Grandal is one of a kind - the only player who turns a gapper into a single.

I don’t know what’s more pathetic. Dashboarders or you drafting 50 times just to use Mays

You do you though. That’s dedication lol

What’s pathetic about it? It’s literally the only way to use him right now.

Thanks for the insight though.

It’s pathetic

Thanks bro. Solid vibes on the forum.

People here called you “pathetic” for playing the game the way you choose for fun? Crazy how even a video game forum brings out the d-bag in people.

@htonsecurity5x said in What If...:

It wouldn’t shock me, there’s not a lot of high end 99s left

Sure there are. ( high end is subjective, but here are few).

Foxx
Ruth
Trout
Sale
Ripken
Young
Bench
Kluber
Griffey
Mays
Puckett
McCovey
Sandberg

These two better happen soon!!!!!!!!!!!

Since you won’t be able to have the 2021 NL Championship Series this year, I’m hoping for your Mays and McCovey.

@qwesty16_psn said in 33 Strikeouts - 9-Inning Record (Presumably):

so you faced the computer on rookie to do this...woo hoo congrats

Pretty sure if you look at the game history; it states he played on Legend.

It doesn’t show difficulty on game logs. What you’re likely seeing is where it says “Game Log Legend,” which is just part of the summary.

@thegoaler_psn said in Is A Pitchers Repertoire Vital For You?:

I don't see anything about this on the forum. I never hear a streamer mention repertoire and speed pregame, but as an offline player, I have to know what pitches a pitcher throws, and what speeds so I don't over swing for guys like Ryu, Sean Manea, etc.
Or are some of you so good that you just go up to bat and figure it out?
Of course, you can pause to check or press R2, which I heard is a bad button online, lol.
Carlos Delgado used to keep a book on pitchers, but I don't want to do that for a videogame, but I find myself repeating what a pitcher throws to remind myself.
Example: If a pitcher has a 4fb, Ch, Curve & 2fb, I repeat '4, Change, Curve, 2.'
Anyone do this? It may seem weird, but that's how I prepare.

If you play a lot online, then all the meta repertoires are basically engrained in your head. Like deGrom and Verlander for example, most people could tell you their pitches (and often their speeds) off the top of their head.

1. A-squad (for ranked)
2. Parallel Grind team (for vs CPU)
3. Missions team (dailies and such)
4. All Parallel 5 team (just to look at and rosterbate)

@gradekthebard said in Simple solution to dashboarding:

Have the game credit the winning team (ie the person who got dashboarded) with a home run (applicable to all missions and stats) to the player at bat when the dashboard occurred. I bet the coding for that would take a competent studio all of 20 minutes.

why doesnt it matter outisde of missions, when someone dashboards you're getting a free win lol

Because it happens when you were gonna get the win anyways. It sucks to get cheated out of stats just because someone was a sore loser.

@myguymanny_xbl said in Sports games soundtracks suck:

I do not understand why virtually every modern sports game has just the worst game/menu music....with the amounts of [censored] updates we get thrown at us you would think that simply freshening up the game music would be a simple task...maybe fill the games with more fitting songs to the times and the sport... more good rap and hip hop songs of course...You know..the type of cuts that young men actually wanna hear when working out or playing competitive sports...because "worry" by songhoy blues is annoying as [censored] and does not get me in the zone, not even a little bit. And Juvenile?? Really Devs?! L are you serious??! who's ZUNE playlist is responsible for this [censored].

You’ve gotta admit - Take Care in Your Dreaming by The Avalanches is straight

@dewrock_psn said in Hit ‘em with Heeeiiin…:

I would assume Buy it or collect it.

I would’ve thought so, but since I couldn’t find it, I was double-checking with the community to see if anyone else can find it.

@brent-leblanc_xbl said in Hit ‘em with the Heeeiiin…:

Bababooey!!

Haha.. you just made me realize that there are several CPU audio calls that aren’t available.

Orel daily would be nice.

@sickbeats78_psn said in Theme teams:

I have wanted to do an all pine tar helmet team .... George Brett and Vlad Sr. are a great start ... anyone know of other players sporting the dirty helmets?

Good chance these guys have it: Panda, Posada, Kike.

I’ve had a couple blunders and wanted to ask:
When a runner is coming home and you have the ball as the catcher, do you guys press a certain button to tag out the runner? Or do you just leave it alone and hope he makes the tag..

Hello Prestige!!!

This year's model is way better and anyone complaining about it is just trying to parallel their complaint attributes.

Lol 100% agree that the parallel system is a huge improvement and honestly one of the best new things with this years game

Not really a thread that needed to be made but man, should have 10 homers with Hank and my stats showing 7 had me salty this morning

Continue on forumers

The ones who aren’t getting dashboarded as often can’t relate. It’s a totally valid complaint.

@dbub_psn said in How many years has it been now:

Knowing how I am with gaming though (total addiction to 1 sports game at a time - first 2K and now The Show) they better hurry up with this maintenance.

If this drags into tomorrow I'll definitely check out 2K22 and the risk is I'll be done with The Show and all in on 2K.

Obviously SDS doesn't care about losing just one customer, but if many others follow suit it won't be good for their bottomline.

Bought 2K22 and playing it now! 🤪

Online, that grounder towards Brian Roberts would’ve been a 4-3 freeze-off.

@papadookz_mlbts said in @SDS Groundouts to 2B=Freezoff:

Played 2 games in a row just now where a groundout to second base put the game into a freeze off. Anyone else having this problem today? Seems freeze offs happening more frequently than years past definitely never seen it this bad almost happens weekly.

Yup, it’s happened to me 4 times in the last couple days.
