Shedding Light on the Situation: How to Embrace the Nightlife in MLB The Show 23
Feeling a little burnt out on those sunshine-filled ballgames? You know, the kind where you squint at the pitcher releasing the ball and dream of nachos instead of focusing on the count? Yeah, been there. But fear not, fellow baseball fanatics! There's a whole other world of diamond action waiting for you under the Friday night lights (or any night, really). Here's your guide to ditching the shades and diving into the nocturnal side of MLB The Show 23.
How To Play At Night In Mlb The Show 23 |
Step 1: Embrace the Power of Settings
This might seem obvious, but you'd be surprised how many folks get stuck in the daytime grind. The key to unlocking the magic of night games lies within the glorious world of settings. Here's how to unleash your inner bat-wielding vampire:
QuickTip: Skim the first line of each paragraph.
- Play Now: Look for the "Time" option when setting up your exhibition game. 7:00 PM is your golden ticket. You can also choose the month – October tends to have more night games scheduled (because, you know, baseball and spooky season go hand-in-hand).
- Franchise/Road to the Show: Unfortunately, you don't get granular control over day/night games in these modes. But fear not! The schedule gods often bless you with night games naturally, especially later in the season.
Step 2: Adjust Your Eyes (Figuratively...Mostly)
Night games bring a whole new visual experience. The ballpark comes alive with the glow of the lights, and catching fly balls might feel a touch trickier. Don't worry, you're not going night blind. Just take a few innings to adjust. Think of it as adding a touch of mystery to the game – who knows, maybe it'll even unlock your hidden clutch gene under the stadium lights.
Tip: Break it down — section by section.
Step 3: Channel Your Inner Night Owl
Night games are a whole different vibe. The energy shifts, the pressure builds, and let's be honest, there's something undeniably cool about playing ball under the stars (or at least a very convincing digital version of them). So crank up the dramatic music, channel your inner baseball legend, and get ready to dominate the diamond under the cloak of darkness.
QuickTip: A short pause boosts comprehension.
Bonus Tip: Embrace the Fashion
Okay, this one's purely for fun. Night games are a chance to break free from the typical baseball uniform monotony. Imagine a pitcher with glowing green eyes on the mound, or a batter rocking a cape as they dig into the box. The possibilities are endless (as long as they fit within the game's customization options).
QuickTip: Keep going — the next point may connect.
