I've never robbed a home run.

Threw a no hitter wit gerrit cole but it was with quick counts so does it really count?

Re: What is your "White Whale" in the Show?

While playing this game throughout the years I have completed the following: 4 homeruns in 1 game, 3 no hitters and 1 perfect game. The no-no's and perfect game came in MLB 12 with a RTTS character that my roommate at the time created. We both took turns making starts trying for a perfecto to earn the trophy. I threw 3 no hitters in the process and finally completed the perfect game against the Giants.

I have never won a World Series though

Taking a walk. I am an impatient hitter. Aside from that, on the occasions when I do develop patience, and start getting 3-ball counts, the CPU decides that that is the time the Pitcher will get laser precision and start hitting the corners (where he had previously been erratic and couldn't hit the side of a barn), or throwing straight heat right over the heart of the plate, thus forcing me to swing at the sweet 3-0/3-1 fastballs right down the middle.

So you've never taken a walk? How long have you been playing the game? lol

I was terrible at taking walks when I started too. You'll get better.

I've played this game since MLB 08 and I've never gotten past the divisional series with the A's and I never drafted a "A" superstar prospect with the Padres.

This game is too realistic sometimes.

Was able to get the Personal Perfection trophy in '09 (Pitch a perfect game with your RTTS pitcher), which is still the rarest trophy I've obtained according to PSNProfiles.com, but haven't gotten perfection since. A number of one hitters, a few broken up in the 9th innings, but never a no-no or perfect game since. Can't remember if I've ever had a four homer game, but I know I've had three. Was finally able to play a full season in '15 (thanks to quick counts for 1 or 2 games each series), but would still love to play one 100% fully.

Incredibly I have never won a World Series on The Show.

I have come up short in the ALCS several times throughout the years with various iterations of my beloved NY Yankees. I play winning baseball but always seem to just come up short in the ALCS.

That is my white whale. I must win a title.

I have done it twice with the Phillies in MLB 11 and MLB 12. Beat the Twins in MLB 11 and beat the Rangers in MLB 12. Got so lucky in 12 because I was down 3-0 in the series and came back to win 4 straight and the championship.

One of the most fun seasons I ever played in MLB The Show was in 14 when I played every game with the Rays and made it to the ALCS. Ended up losing to the Angels in 7 games. Such a fun year playing with them. Ben Zobrist was a damn beast for me that year. Such a blast.

Those 7 game series are always so amazing and fun to play.

I have played every The Show since '09, All Star Baseball 2002 & MVP 2015.
I have only ever won the World Series once in year 1 of my Boston Dynasty on MVP where i was taken to 7 games in the ALCS Vs Cleveland and then came back from 3-1 down Vs Atlanta in the World Series. I have never made it past the LDS on any other occasion.

I won two straight WS with the Marlins on MVP 05. My team was stacked. Never sniffed another title in console baseball since.

That will change this year...oh yes...it will.
