You Wanna Get Tossed? How to Master the Art of the Ejection in MLB the Show 22
Let's face it, folks, sometimes baseball gets a little...well, sleepy. You're three innings in, tied 0-0, and the only drama is whether that hot dog vendor is selling the jumbo franks again. Fear not, aspiring clubhouse instigators! We're here to inject some chaos into your digital diamond with a guide to getting yourself ejected faster than you can say "brushback pitch."
How To Get Ejected In Mlb The Show 22 |
Step 1: Become the Beanball Bandit
Remember that little white zone the game helpfully provides? Consider it a mere suggestion, a friendly outline for where your pitches shouldn't go. Instead, channel your inner Johnny Cueto and unleash a barrage of high-and-tights. Imagine each batter as that guy who cut you in line at the concession stand. Just be careful – aim for the batters' helmets, not their kneecaps – unless you enjoy a trip to the Commissioner's Office.
Pro Tip: Fielding a team entirely made of relievers with questionable control is a great shortcut to ejection town.
Step 2: Embrace Your Inner Umpire Insulter
Sure, the umpire might be a robot with questionable eyesight, but that doesn't mean you can't offer some "constructive criticism" after a bad call. Let loose with the classics: "You ever gonna see an eye doctor, blue?" "That call was worse than a called strike three on a 3-0 count!" **Just be creative, folks. **
QuickTip: Don’t ignore the small print.
Word to the Wise: Avoid the "mother-" and "you-" words. The ratings board might not appreciate it, and you might get a console timeout from mom.
Step 3: Unleash the Yasiel Puig
Remember that epic bat flip Puig pulled off a few years back? Channel that energy! After every home run, launch your bat into the stratosphere like you're summoning a meteor shower. Circle the bases like you just won the lottery. Basically, embrace your inner showman and celebrate like there's no tomorrow (or like you haven't hit a homer all season).
Bonus Points: If you have a position player pitching, throw some high cheese after a weak ground out. Nothing says "ejection" like a pitcher with something to prove (and a complete lack of control).
Tip: Look for small cues in wording.
Congratulations! You've Been Ejected!
There you have it! With a little dedication and a complete disregard for sportsmanship, you'll be the most hated (and possibly most entertaining) player in the league. Just remember, ejections come with consequences – a suspension, a potential fine, and the wrath of your teammates (virtual or otherwise). But hey, at least you won't be bored!

A: Probably not. Your teammates might not appreciate the early exit.
Q: Isn't this kind of disrespectful?
A: In the real world, yes. In MLB the Show? It's all about having fun (in a slightly chaotic way).
