Hey there, sluggers! Ever dream of livin' large like a superstar athlete, with endorsement deals rainin' down like dingers in Coors Field? Well, fret no more! In MLB The Show 23: Road to the Show, you can snag those sweet sponsorship deals to pad your pockets and, well, maybe finally afford that decent haircut for your created player.

How To Equip Sponsorships In Mlb The Show 23 Road To The Show |
Step Up Your Swag (But Not Really)
Nope, you won't be seein' your face plastered on a bat or wearin' a neon jersey plastered with logos. Sponsorships in Road to the Show are more behind the scenes. Think of them like secret handshakes with big brands. You promote their stuff, they shower you with cash (well, in-game currency). It's a win-win!
Tip: Note one practical point from this post.
Mailman Always Delivers (Except These Sponsorships)
Unfortunately, you can't just waltz into the clubhouse and demand a sponsorship deal. These things gotta be earned, my friend. You'll snag sponsorship cards as rewards throughout your career. Keep an eye on your inbox (not your real-life mailbox, silly!), and you'll see these beauties poppin' up as you climb the ranks of the minor leagues and eventually dominate the majors.
But here's the kicker: These sponsorships can't be used in Road to the Show mode itself. That's right, you can't rack up stolen bases for a Nike bonus while playin' as your created player.
QuickTip: Don’t ignore the small print.
Fear not, though! These sponsorship cards are a golden ticket to rainin' cash in Franchise Mode.
Cha-Ching! Time to Be a Big Cheese (Franchise Mode Manager, That Is)
Now here's where the magic happens. Head over to Franchise Mode and take the reins as the General Manager (GM) of your favorite team. Once you're in the GM's chair, you can activate those sponsorship cards you collected in Road to the Show.
Tip: Summarize each section in your own words.
Here's the breakdown:
- Go to the "Manage Team" section.
- Find the glorious "Sponsorships" tab. (You know it's glorious because it means more money for your team!)
- Browse through your collected sponsorship cards.
- Pick the ones that align with your team's strategy. (Think: Power hitter for a bat company sponsorship?)
- Activate those bad boys!
Now, whenever your players meet the requirements of the sponsorship (like hittin' a home run or makin' a sweet diving catch), your team gets a nice chunk of change.
Tip: Reread tricky sentences for clarity.
Basically, you're turnin' your Road to the Show grind into a Franchise Mode money machine!
