Anybody who is having difficulty with "The Alex Wood Extreme Moment," just think of Wood as being somewhat like Chris Sale, albeit with more command; but less stuff. I was lucky to get it done the first time because I was able to recall that Alex had to throw from angles, just like Chris, in order to be effective and strikeout many batters with occasional pitches inside to throw them off and distract them. It also helped that many of my human opponents in the mid-2010's used Wood in their rotations, so I had a pretty good idea of how he had to pitch in order to be successful.

Claude Osteen and Tommy John had just about or over one-hundred wins during their time with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Neither have every been in "The Show."

The Guardians haven't won a World Series since 1948, even though they had a chance to win in 1995, and should of won in 1997 and 2016. My Padres have only been to two World Series in fifty-six seasons, where they lost to two great teams: the 1984 Detroit Tigers and 1998 New York Yankees, and haven't been back in twenty-six years. Not to mention the historic World Series droughts of the Boston Red Sox and Chicago Cubs who before they won a World Series again had not won since 1918 (Red Sox), and 1908 (Cubs). These are just several examples of where you're wrong, and I can cite many more. Yes, your team has never been to the World Series, but there are other teams that have a worst history than yours now.

They changed the tabs on the pages, so instead of all the jerseys being on one page; they might be on multiple pages. Check to see if your remaining jerseys are on Page Two? I had the same problem this morning and realized that The Show had updated and reformatted this part, and answered my own question that I had in my head. Hopefully, this solves your issue.

@iBonafideScrub__PSN I played Shippett in 2022, and nothing had changed. Thank goodness my opponents chose other stadiums for me to play in last year in Diamond Dynasty because I really didn't want to play in this stadium. Hopefully, you're right and Sony San Diego has made this stadium in 2024 more like Coors, a hitters' park; but more balanced. Otherwise, I stand by my original position.

Yes, you can get up to four wild cards this year, and can earn three wild cards by completing most of the Season 2 XP Reward Path.

Willie Mays needs an MLB Storyline along with Ichiro Susuki next year. To me, in my opinion, that would be a fitting tribute for the "Say Hey, Kid."

Yes, Shield Woods is bad; but Shippett Stadium is worse! When I play at Shippett, the games are always high scoring, I have used all my pitchers, and even players that don't hit for any power; hit massive bombs in that park. There never seems to be a low scoring game ever; even compared to other hitters' parks. In addition, the all-wood batter's eye is ugly and covers most of the center field fence. To me, Coors Field is a pitchers' park compared to Shippett. Unless it's a real minor league park, I would like Sony San Diego to get rid of this stadium posthaste.
-
Next year, I hope to see Don Newcombe, Roy Campanella, "Cool Papa" Bell, and Oscar Charleston in the Negro Leagues Storylines.

I have seen pitching changes from my opponents mid-at-bat against me happen alot this year because I am either making solid contact on their starting pitcher and/or relief pitcher, or I am not swinging at their pitches that are not strikes, at a critical time of the game, and they're trying to throw me off by doing this. When I am pitching, I only replace a pitcher mid-at-bat, if my pitcher can't find any part of the plate because he has lost total control, or I am getting shelled after giving up more than two home runs in an inning, and trying desperately to get anybody out. I barely do this when I'm pitching, but it's totally legal, and I see this in real life MLB games at least twice every season.
-
For me, it's knuckleball pitchers like Matt Waldron. In "All-Star Baseball" games and early "The Show Games," Tim Wakefield would screw me up so bad that I would lose to him, and then lose the next game to a "normal," pitcher because my batting mechanics were so out of sync. This happened against human opponents and the CPU. As for any advice I would give to anyone who has lefty-lefty issues try to avoid swinging at any pitches outside and away, and make him or her throw you a strike. Lastly, if all else fails, find lefty batters, like, Paul O'Neill of the Yankees, or the aforementioned Alvarez of the Astros, who hit lefties well.

Well, with some of the throwback uniforms, you have to play The U.S. Conquest Map in order to get them. In addition, to get some of "The City Connect Alternate Jerseys," you have to play that specific conquest teams' map in order to get that jersey.
-
Everybody forgot Gaylord Perry, who is a Hall-of-Fame pitcher; but seems to be banned (allegedly) from every single version of MLB The Show. I am not saying the developers banned him, but I have not seen him in this game.
-
I'm nearly fifty, and have a 9-16 record as a solo player by myself in Diamond Dynasty online this year. Unfortunately, this is the best record I have had up to this point in the seven or so years I have played this mode. I am a much better co-op player with one or two partners and I am getting much better with every single game I play in that mode. Lastly, I am a better pitcher and fielder than I am a batter.
-
I have usually have very few problems with the commentary except when I hit some balls to an outfielder, and the announcers will say, "It's going to the wall, and get out of here;" only for the batter to catch in shallow center.
-
My choice probably will be Corbin Carroll because of his speed, and my lack of offensive production from my right fielders this year so far. My alternative choice is Rafael Devers who I have been successful with whenever I have used him for multiple years now.
-
Speaking of my favorite announcers for an MLB video game, they are Thom Brennaman and Steve Lyons for "All-Star Baseball 2004," & "All Star-Baseball 2005." As for Matty V, I liked his commentary best with Mark DeRosa and Dan Plesac the one year they were together on MLB The Show.
-
No, I don't think that Scambi and Singleton were drunk when reading their dialogue for this game. I just think there is almost no variety in their announcing than there was two years ago, but I'm not annoyed enough to mute my TV, or shut them off. They are ok, that's all! Speaking of possibly being drunk, one of my favorite Caray quotes was, '"All the beautiful girls go to the Cubs games,'" which just after he said that, all the cameramen on WGN's broadcast of the Cubs started panning to search for those girls. This was a television broadcast in the mid 90's. I don't think any current baseball broadcaster could get away with some of the antics that Harry could during his career, but he was a legend already by then, and still called a great game. He is most definitely missed and the reason I watched Cubs games between the late-80's to mid-90's.

Hoyt Wilhelm, Tommy John, and Thurman Munson.

I bunt, if the all the infielders are farther back, and my batter has speed and can bunt, like for example, Cedric Mullins. Unlike Gaylord Perry's spitball; it's not cheating.
