    Moments are annoying and unnecessarily tedious

    They shouldn't even put a difficulty level on them, because we all know it isn't correct. It feels like the outcome is predetermined on them (I know they arent) and some of them are just there to annoy you.

    Example: Rhys Hoskins 8 total bases. Waino throws a ton of junk so I attempt to wait him out. 1st at bat, home run. 2nd at bat, walked on 4 pitches. 3rd at bat, hit by pitch. 4th at bat, walked on 5 pitches. 5th at bat, walk scraper HR robbed by OF. It took me roughly 20 tries to finally beat it, and it was supposed to be on rookie. So many times I would have 7 TB with a HR and a triple, then get nothing to hit or amazing diving catches to rob a base hit.

    The tremendous fielding plays, the terrible pitching, and the warning track power on P/P hits with 100+ power guys is ridiculous. If they want them to be hard, make them HoF but don't say they are rookie when we know they arent.

    I agree on the warning track power. WAY too many Perfect-Perfect fly balls by power hitters this year ending that way.

    Otherwise, don't really agree. Moments can be annoying. When they are, I step away and come back when I'm in a better mood.

    Best advice it to grind them while you're doing something else -- listening to a Rogan podcast, etc.

      The moments being on rookie and veteran means you can just swing at anything near the zone and it'll usually fall for a hit if your timing isn't off. That's with zone at least. I've stopped using directional this year because it seems to not be working as well as years past.

        yeah I just joined this forum for the talk about this game, as it's my first foray into the show. Been waiting for years for a baseball game for the xbox to come back out. Its a great game so far and yeah I thought this Rhys moment was very tedious. I basically gave up on hitting the curve and tried to take as many pitches as I could to get to the relievers. Finally sunday night I hit a fastball off Wainwright then got to a reliever and hit a low fastball out. I think it took me at least 50 tries to get it.

          They are tied in to DD awards so of course they are hard. Otherwise the DD try hards would complain that everyone is able to build super teams
