News Tag: MLB 25 Stubs

FC 26 has undoubtedly been a hot topic in the recent sports game market, but with the start of 2025 World Series, MLB The Show 25 has once again garnered attention.

While the game itself continues to focus on releasing new programs, its simulations of 2025 World Series matches serve as a useful tool for predicting the outcome of the games. This may make you want to return.

While the results aren't guaranteed to be accurate, they're compelling enough for fans to watch.

Below, we'll outline MLB 25's simulations and predictions of the game's outcome, building on our introduction to 2025 World Series.

About 2025 World Series

The tournament began on October 24th and will run until November 1st. The championship will be decided between Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays.

During the series, a matchup will be held daily, with the venue rotating between the two teams' home bases. It's worth noting that Toronto Blue Jays won the October 24th match.

More game schedules are as follows:

• October 24: Rogers Centre - 8:00 p.m. ET.
• October 25: Rogers Centre - 8:00 p.m. ET.
• October 27: Dodger Stadium - 8:00 p.m. ET.
• October 28: Dodger Stadium - 8:00 p.m. ET.
• October 29: Dodger Stadium - 8:00 p.m. ET.
• October 31: Rogers Centre - 8:00 p.m. ET.
• November 1: Rogers Centre - 8:00 p.m. ET.

Although Toronto Blue Jays won once, there's no telling who will be lucky next time! All you can do as a fan is stay up to date with the latest game results or make your predictions in MLB The Show 25.

How To Simulate In MLB 25?

You can find players for both teams directly in Franchise or Postseason mode, then play the two teams and predict the real-world 2025 World Series champion based on their performance and results.

Because team rotations and starting lineups may change from game to game, simulations in the game are based only on the lineups used in real-world matches between the two teams over the past month or two - they have only met three times in the regular season.

2025 World Series is a best-of-seven format, so you can simulate three series games using the lineups from the three regular-season games and then complete the remaining four simulations based on the simulated results.

Or, if you have more time, you can combine the most recent real-world series lineups and results as of October 24th with the regular-season data to simulate the series.

Here are our selected simulated lineups and predicted results (excluding the already concluded first game):

• Game 1: Dodgers 3, Blue Jays 1 - W: Shohei Ohtani, L: Kevin John Gausman
• Game 2: Blue Jays 9, Dodgers 10 - W: Kirby Yates, L: Joe Mantiply
• Game 3: Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 5 - W: Luis García, L: Brusdar Graterol
• Game 4: Blue Jays 6, Dodgers 7 - W: Kirby Yates, L: Trey Yesavage
• Final Champion: Los Angeles Dodgers

While the predicted winner is a familiar strong team, the results generated by the combination of data and AI are only for fun reference; anything can happen in real baseball.

What Else Can You Play In MLB 25 Recently?

If you're not interested in running your own simulations and just want to see the predictions, the above content is enough for your reference. But don't leave MLB 25 just yet, even if other games are tempting you. The new ALCS Program launched on October 23rd!

Thanks to Toronto Blue Jays' victory over Seattle Mariners in Game 7 of ALCS, Blue Jays qualified for 2025 World Series.

In that game, Blue Jays player George Springer contributed greatly to the team, and his player card became the ultimate prize in ALCS Program.

How To Obtain ALCS Program Rewards?

To earn all program rewards, you must earn 50 stars by completing the following Moments:

• 1,000 PXP with Seattle Mariners and Toronto Blue Jays players - 20 stars

• 3 Home Runs with Blue Jays players - 5 stars

This star player boasts impressive overall ratings and individual skill sets. Recruiting him will make him a reliable outfield player for your team.

That's all for this introduction. MLB The Show 25 is expected to see a resurgence after 2025 World Series again. Let's look forward to the championship!

After the first four months of regular operation, MLB The Show 25 launched a series of All-Star Game (ASG) content on July 11, which includes multiple specific challenges and quests, and you can get rewards by completing them.

In addition to the basic MLB 25 stubs, these rewards are mainly cards from various players. They can not only help you win in different game modes by better team candidates, but also enrich your game collection.

So what collection cards does All-Star bring you, and how can they be unlocked? We will introduce them to you.

Overview Of All-Star Collection Rewards

As one of the major updates in 2025 since its launch, July’s All-Star is expected to bring you 59 MLB 25 players that can be unlocked through regular gameplay, and about 4 more that need to complete special content to unlock.

The sources of these cards mainly include completing Team Affinity tasks, redeeming related gift packs through MLB 25 stubs, and completing free challenges such as Mini Seasons.

It is worth noting that you can get additional rewards for each certain number of cards you collect, and the final reward is the most valuable Aaron Judge with OVR 99:

• 5 Cards - 2025 All-Star Deluxe Pack
• 15 Cards - 97 Josh Hader
• 30 Cards - 98 Garrett Crochet
• 45 Cards - 99 Jose Ramirez
• 50 Cards - 99 Shohei Ohtani (non-pitcher)

Earn My Journey Vouchers Through Team Affinity

After All-Star begins, all teams in the team affinity will provide you with 2025 All-Star My Journey vouchers worth 285,000 team points. If you can get all the vouchers provided by a single team, you can redeem any of the 30 All-Star cards.

It is worth noting that All-Star cards included in Team Affinity are also captain cards, which can help you upgrade the levels of other players in the team, so that the strength of the entire team is improved, and the winning rate in various modes of competition will also increase.

If you want to earn My Journey vouchers faster, it is recommended that you complete Color Storm PXP task first, which can help you quickly obtain 150,000 team points corresponding to 500 PXP.

After that, you can get Color Storm series cards while completing Color Storm program, and continue to improve your strength in My Journey program to obtain more card packs and other rewards.

If you prefer to accumulate XP through competitions rather than comprehensive player rewards, or focus on your favorite team, you can freely choose any team through ASG Voucher dropped in this week’s gift pack.

Redeemable Packs

• Deluxe Pack
• Ultra Pack
• Preview Bundle
• Chase Pack 18 - features 99 Overall Ketel Marte

These packs are expected to offer a total of 16 cards, but if you have limited MLB 25 stubs or other currencies, you’ll need to plan your redemption accordingly, based on all the stubs you have.

Which Players Deserve Extra Attention?

The first highlight player of the 2025 All-Star series is undoubtedly the ultimate reward Aaron Judge. His live series card has always been one of the best hitters throughout the year, and All-Star version further improves his fielding ability.

The other two key players are Jose Ramirez and Shohei Ohtani, especially the latter, who can definitely bring you reliable help in pure designated hits.

In short, All-Star Game is not only a grand event that can bring rich card rewards, but also forces you to exercise your game and strategy skills in various challenges in order to maximize the acquisition of the desired cards, and become a more reliable MLB 25 player.

As one of the mainstream sports video simulation games on the market, MLB The Show series is in charge of the baseball field. You can not only enjoy the fun of virtual baseball games through it, but also get a career close to that of a real baseball player.

In the real world, if a player wants to go from obscurity into a baseball player who can become famous by joining Major League Baseball, he must start the struggle from high school or MiLB, and the same is true in MLB 25.

If you choose to play as a player through Road to the Show mode in MLB 25 instead of managing a team as a coach or manager, you will need to go through the promotion process of AA-affiliate team, AAA, and majors.

To do this, you need to work hard to improve your OVR rating while earning MLB The Show 25 stubs by completing tasks or winning games. The higher the score, the more likely Majors will recruit you.

Next, we will give you a detailed introduction on how to complete all the pre-tasks to enter Majors.

Advancing To AAA

Generally speaking, when you create your player character in RTTS, you should be in high school at first, and then you can quickly decide whether to enter college or minor leagues to continue playing baseball. At this time, you are actually in AA stage.

You will be in AA-affiliate team for a long time, and what you have to do is to constantly improve yourself to advance to AAA first. To do this, you must try to ensure that your performance in every game during this period is good enough until the summer of the first season.

Usually around June of the season, you will receive a call from AA-level manager, who will tell you that he hopes you will join AAA-level team as soon as possible, and you will soon be able to represent the team in the next game.

If your game performance is not always at the best level, you will have to wait until at least the end of the first season before you have a chance to advance to AAA.

If you have not completed the initial promotion tasks by this time, you will need to go through another off-season until you enter the sophomore campaign, and then you will have a chance to continue working hard to enter AAA.

For your game progress and experience, the best time to advance to AAA should not exceed one season. To do this, you need to play as many MiLB games as possible to ensure that your results remain high, not just simulated games.

Advancing To Majors

The road to Majors is longer than that to AAA. First of all, if you make it to AAA in your first season, you will have to play in the minors for at least a full season before you have a chance to enter Majors.

At this time, you can simulate the entire offseason so that you can receive a spring training invitation from the team the next time you play. This is a chance for you to show your skills in front of the management and players of the target Major’s team.

The tricky thing is that because Majors promotion standards in MLB The Show 25 are very strict, even if you perform well enough in spring training, there is a high probability that you will still be demoted to AAA, but they will soon call you back to Majors within a few months.

Of course, if you don’t perform well in all aspects during spring training, you still need to stay in the minor leagues to hone yourself until your performance reaches the level required to enter Majors.

How To Increase The Speed Of Entering Majors?

The above methods of entering Majors are usually suitable for situations where you can ensure that your performance in the game is always good. In fact, if you make mistakes or your level is not enough, you may have to stay in the minor leagues for a long time.

In order to avoid this as much as possible, you can actually enter Majors faster through reasonable shortcuts in the process of training yourself.

Choose The Suitable Team

Although it is human nature to want to join a strong team, in the game of MLB 25, sometimes this will become a reason to hinder your promotion. The stronger the team, the better the players in each position, and there is no need to recruit new players.

Therefore, if you choose such a team when you advance to Majors, because they have no vacancies to arrange for you, your recruitment time will naturally be extended.

For this reason, if you want to complete the promotion as soon as possible, it is best to choose a team that does not have outstanding players in your favorite position. However, the promotion requirements will not be reduced due to the weaker team strength.

Switch Positions

In addition to the restrictions on pitching positions, Road to the Show allows you to change positions, which means that you can observe the position arrangements of Majors team you like, if there is a vacancy, you can switch your position to join as soon as possible.

Always Maintain Your Best Level

Although this is difficult to do, it is indeed the most reliable way to ensure promotion to Majors. If you can get more hits, a higher average hit rate or a higher quality started in the game as a pitcher, your chances of being recruited by Majors’ team will be greatly increased.

In addition, it is worth noting that there will be a Top Prospects list in the game, which is also one of the reference criteria for whether you can be promoted. If you find yourself ranked behind in a certain position, you can consider changing your position to avoid falling behind in time.

If you are a player who has just started RTTS mode in MLB The Show 25 for a long time, this guide should be able to help you speed up your promotion. I wish you a brilliant professional baseball career in the game!

As you know, MLB 25 has added a lot of new gameplays in addition to the optimization and upgrades based on the previous game, such as Weekend Classic, which will be launched for the first time this weekend! It is a competitive baseball gameplay in Diamond Dynasty mode, which is very attractive to both challenging difficulty and final benefits.

That is why, if you want to win more MLB The Show 25 Stubs or more valuable gift packs by winning in this gameplay, the first task is to build a team of strong players. MLB 25 has been online for a while, so maybe you have earned enough stubs to exchange players by playing other modes, but which of them can help you win Weekend Classic? Don’t worry! We will recommend 9 for you!

1. Leodalis De Vries-Shortstop

A standout shortstop in Spring Breakout Series, Leodalis De Vries is a worthy starter for your Weekend Classic team. Although his batting average of around .307 may not be enough to make you consider him the top pick, his defensive ability and on-base percentage as a shortstop are very good.

2. Kristian Campbell-Left Field

MLB 25 has recently launched a number of programs similar to battle passes, which can earn rewards by completing tasks, including new player cards such as Kristian Campbell from Pipeline series. This player’s swing load is always a good indicator of the pitch that the pitcher is about to throw, and his hitting attributes are also quite good, which can play well in most positions on the field. Although Kristian Campbell is mainly a second baseman, since good outfielders are hard to find, it is also a good choice to have him as a left fielder in Weekend Classic. He can not only hit home runs continuously, but also find gaps in the outfield to hit doubles.

3. Babe Ruth-First Base

Babe Ruth has an impeccable first base performance defensively and is an excellent third baseman when it comes to home runs. In 75 at-bats, he hit .387, and his 8 home runs, 13 RBIs, and amazing 1.147 on-base percentage prove that he always finds a way to hit the ball. In addition, Babe Ruth has over 100 power hits, both as a left-hander and a right-hander, and this feature and other advantages make him one of the most dangerous hitters in the game.

4. Jorge Soler-Designated Hitter

When Jorge Soler is put in the outfield, he will be hit constantly, so it is a good choice to let him be the designated hitter in Weekend Classic game, and his ability to hit the home run is also very strong. The stable hitting ability, smooth swing, high contact and strong power are enough to make Jorge Soler bring excellent hitting performance to your team.

5. Cody Bellinger-Right Field

Although Cody Bellinger’s batting attributes are not particularly outstanding and his overall power is slightly lacking, his swing feels good and his performance in right field or first base is stable, which is why his New Threads card received a high rating of 88. If you let him bat after the fourth batter, his task is to get on base and prepare for the second half, and his .412 batting average shows that he should be able to complete this task.

6. William Contreras-Catcher

Generally speaking, the data and strength of ordinary program player cards may not be as good as regular player cards, but William Contreras is actually very good as a Live program card. Not only can he effectively fight against left-handers with the advantage of inside edge, but he can also show excellent defensive ability as a catcher.

In addition, William Contreras’s batting performance is also very stable. As long as there is a runner on base, his 107-yard key pitcher hit can contribute to the team. If you need a good catcher but don’t know who to pick, William is a good fit.

7. Max Clark-Center Field

Although Max Clark’s Breakout card is not very consistent, he is a very good center fielder with a 91 defensive attribute and 99 speed, as well as excellent swing speed, which allows him to steal bases and hit.

8. Alex Bregman-Third Base

As a solid defensive third baseman, Alex Bregman’s hitting ability is also quite good. Although cards like Jose Bautista’s all-star card may also perform well, once you complete a game with Alex Bregman, you will find that you can’t live without him anymore!

9. Travis Bazzana-Second Base

Although Travis Bazzana is placed last, it has to be said that most players like this card when playing Diamond Dynasty mode. Sometimes you can replace him with Ian Kinsler, but Kinsler’s defense is too poor and his hitting power is not enough, so in the end you find that Travis Bazzana is better!

Of course, you can follow our recommendations to select players for the upcoming Weekend Classic, or you can explore on your own and build a team that you think will be useful. But in any case, we sincerely hope that you can have an impressive performance in your Weekend Classic debut!

When it comes to Major League Baseball, everyone will think of the 30 participating clubs, super luxurious stadiums and a large number of fanatical fans who are chasing after them. These are great attractions for any rising star who wants to become famous.

After they compete with other players of similar skill levels in the minor leagues that serve as pipelines and improve to a high enough level, they will be successfully selected by more famous clubs. After that, they will spend most of their careers in an organized training system. This is the tradition of baseball game culture.

As the most important baseball video game in the current gaming industry, MLB The Show 25 has launched a program called Pipeline Program in this spring of revival, which will provide you with very valuable rewards such as MLB 25 Stubs and some packs, so that you can upgrade the designated or all players in Diamond Dynasty mode as a whole and win more games.

In order for you to get all the rewards from Pipeline Program faster, this guide will give you an introduction to the reward list, gameplay, and some task guides you need to complete, etc. Without further ado, let’s start your journey to earn rewards!

Pipeline Program Rewards

In fact, all programs in MLB 25 are very similar to battle passes in some massively multiplayer online games. You will need to claim corresponding rewards based on the number of stars you have earned from some personal challenges or tasks given to you by some Diamond Dynasty mode.

How To Get More Stars?

While Pipeline Program is active, there are a lot of ways to earn stars for milestone rewards in MLB The Show 25. Here are some of the tasks you can complete and the corresponding guides, which can help you complete all the challenges faster.

Moments

Of all the ways to earn stars, moments are arguably the most effective. Here, you will be given a number of specific tasks: use Pipeline Program to reward your players with a few on-field actions, and each completed action will reward you with 4 stars.

This also makes this the most effective way to get to know these up-and-coming players. Here are the names of each moment and the specific action challenges you need to complete.

• Runs in the Family: You use Jaison Chourio to get on base twice.
• Sproating Wings: You use Brandon Sproat to pitch one scoreless inning.
• Moore Power: You use Christian Moore to have two extra-base hits.
• Rocker Resurgence: You use Kumar Rocker to pitch one inning, allowing no runs and striking out three.
• Kurtz Alert: You use Nick Kurtz to hit a home run.
• Rushing Through the Minor Leagues: You use Dalton Rushing to have three hits.
• Laying Down the Law: You use Jordan Lawlar to have two hits.
• Walk in the Park: You use Walker Jenkins to have three hits and one extra base hit.

PXP Missions

PXP (Parallel XP) is the experience your Diamond Dynasty players gain for their current active lineup, mainly by helping them hit great shots and hit some clutch shots. Here are the goals you need to complete for each mission, each of which will give you 5 stars.

• Pipeline Series (Repeatable): You reach 1,000 PXP with Pipeline players.
• Chourio: You reach 150 PXP with Jaison Chourio.
• Sproat: You reach 300 PXP with Brandon Sproat.
• Moore: You reach 150 PXP with Christian Moore.
• Rocker: You reach 300 PXP with Kumar Locker.
• Kurtz: You reach 150 PXP with Nick Kurtz.
• Rushing: You reach 150 PXP with Dalton Rush.
• Lawlar: You reach 150 PXP with Jordan Lawlar.

Pipeline Series Missions

In an official MLB 25 baseball game, each team needs to be equipped with players who can take charge of different positions. Among them, the pitcher is a relatively important defensive player, who is mainly responsible for throwing the baseball from the pitcher’s mound to the catcher, to get the batter who tries to contact the pitch or get a walk out.

It is worth noting that according to the characteristics of the players and other reasons, the pitchers in baseball games can be further divided into starting pitchers, relief pitchers, and middle relievers, etc. Of course, no matter what kind of pitcher, as long as you want to ensure that you can win in the game, you will always tend to exchange MLB 25 Stubs for those stronger pitchers.

We have introduced some of the best starting pitchers in MLB The Show 25 in other articles before, and this time we have selected 10 best relief pitchers for you based on a comprehensive evaluation of multiple stats, and will introduce them from low to high.

10. RP Cade Smith-88

Cade Smith had an outstanding season last year, earning him an 88 total, making him one of the top non-closer relievers in the game.

• 90 H/9
• 82 K/9
• 73 BB/9
• 95 HR/9
• 75 Control
• 83 Velocity
• 80 Break
• 99 Clutch
• 677 Total

9. CP Felix Bautista-85

This player missed the 2024 season due to injury, but when he returns, I believe his high-velocity fastball will be enough to help you beat most hitters.

• 99 H/9
• 98 K/9
• 36 BB/9
• 75 HR/9
• 82 Control
• 99 Velocity
• 92 Break
• 98 Clutch
• 679 Total

8. RP Tanner Scott-84

While Tanner Scott’s stats look great, his attributes are very inconsistent in his game - sometimes the stats are not entirely reliable. For example, Tanner allowed 309 hits in 374.2 innings pitched, but his rating was a near-perfect H/9, while he struck out 490 batters, but his K/9 was only 79.

• 98 H/9
• 79 K/9
• 52 BB/9
• 87 HR/9
• 80 Control
• 89 Velocity
• 97 Break
• 99 Clutch
• 681 Total

7. RP Blake Treinen-84

Treinen is an explosive pitcher from the Dodger team. His on-field movements are very deceptive and even make those hitters who are “tricked” by him look stupid. Treinen is one of three players with all pitching attribute ratings above 70, along with Cade Smith and Griffin Jax, and his three best ratings are velocity, break, and clutch.

• 90 H/9
• 71 K/9
• 73 BB/9
• 80 HR/9
• 75 Control
• 99 Break
• 96 Velocity
• 99 Clutch
• 683 Total

6. RP Griffin Jax-83

As the main pitcher for the Twins, Griffin Jax has received excellent reviews in the 2024 MLB season, and based on the trend, he should be able to continue this performance until now. If you can redeem him to your team through MLB The Show 25 Stubs, his velocity and break will be of great help to you.

• 86 H/9
• 72 K/9
• 76 BB/9
• 80 HR/9
• 78 Control
• 99 Velocity
• 95 Break
• 99 Clutch
• 685 Total

5. CP Mason Miller-88

As one of the most powerful young pitchers in the league, the 26-year-old Mason Miller’s pitching speed can sometimes reach 103 miles per hour, which batters can’t keep up with, and his strikeout rate is over 90 and his walk rate is over 50. It is worth mentioning that Mason Miller ranked fourth in Rookie of the Year race last season.

Mason Miller’s main advantages are his velocity on his four-seamer and his powerful slider, which can allow right-handed players to chase out of the zone, and his circle changeup, which he is good at using, can disrupt the batter’s movements.

• 99 H/9
• 99 K/9
• 57 BB/9
• 72 HR/9
• 84 Control
• 99 Velocity
• 95 Break
• 80 Clutch
• 685 Total

4. RP Matt Strahm-84

Matt Strahm’s outstanding slider is one of his most outstanding strengths, which makes his other characteristics not so outstanding, but also enough to deal with most situations.

• 94 H/9
• 77 K/9
• 81 BB/9
• 69 HR/9
• 81 Control
• 88 Velocity
• 99 Break
• 97 Clutch
• 686 Total

3. CP Ryan Helsley-85

Ryan Helsley’s relief pitcher rating is the same as in previous seasons, with high H/9, velocity, break and clutch scores, and extremely low BB/9 rating. Fortunately, his K/9 is 80, HR/9 is 87, and control is 80, which are all relatively high, and these three are the main factors that determine whether a relief pitcher is good enough.

• 92 H/9
• 80 K/9
• 53 BB/9
• 87 HR/9
• 80 Control
• 99 Velocity
• 97 Break
• 99 Clutch
• 687 Total

2. CP Jeff Hoffman-86

Although Hoffman’s BB/9 score is in the normal range of relief pitchers, it has improved a lot compared to his previous performance, which is enough to prove that he will get better performance in the next season. In addition, Hoffman has changed from 9 K/9 to 12.1 K/9, and the number of walks has also been reduced from 45 in 2021 to 16.

• 95 H/9
• 81 K/9
• 65 BB/9
• 76 HR/9
• 84 Control
• 99 Velocity
• 99 Break
• 95 Clutch
• 694 Total

1. CP Emmanuel Clase-91

Emmanuel Clase is probably the best relief pitcher right now, not only because he finished third in the Cy Young race and has been an All-Star every year since 2022, but also because his stats are pretty good, with seven stats at 85 or higher.

• 99 H/9
• 60 K/9
• 89 BB/9
• 87 HR/9
• 86 Control
• 99 Velocity
• 90 Break
• 99 Clutch

There are currently more than 50 stadiums in the game, some of which may require you to exchange them through MLB 25 Stubs because of their exquisiteness, so we will introduce you to the 6 top stadiums, so that you can exchange limited stubs for unlimited happiness!

1. PNC Park

No matter from which angle, PNC Park is the well-deserved first place among the stadiums in MLB The Show 25. While it’s not suitable in all MLB 25 game modes, the city views are always pretty nice, like the iconic Roberto Clemente Bridge behind the outfield and the always-beautiful Pittsburgh skyline.

While baseball contest should be as fair as possible, sometimes the stadium in MLB 25 can have an impact on your players’ performance. For example, most of PNC Park outfield is pretty standard, but there is a small fence in left field that is perfect for grabbing home runs, and the outfield wall is a good distance from home plate, which allows you to keep a good balance between offense and defense.

2. Date Palm Field

Since the birth of MLB The Show series, Date Palm Field has been one of the most suitable stadiums for ranked games, because the overall design is well-balanced, making home runs moderately difficult and able to take into account both offense and defense. This allows your pitcher or batter to play a role throughout the game.

In terms of scenery, Date Palm Field doesn’t have a lot of special features, but the palm trees scattered around the outfield wall make it look more suitable for daytime games. After all, the main reason most players choose here is to get a better baseball experience.

3. Fenway Park

Opened in 1912, Fenway Park can be said to be one of the oldest baseball stadiums in the United States, which is why it has witnessed so many of the most special moments in international baseball games. Although the stadium is no longer suitable for real life because of problems such as aging facilities caused by its early construction time, it still feels good in MLB The Show 25.

The high wall in the left outfield of the stadium is the main feature, which can help right-handed powerful hitters get a lot of doubles and home runs. Although a strange triangle in the center field may make it more difficult to hit home runs and track the ball in the outfield, the wall in the right outfield makes up for it.

In addition, Pesky Pole on the right side of the stadium is the shortest fence in Majors, only 302 feet away from the home plate, so you can easily hit home runs and home run doubles around the fence with your left hand.

4. Petco Park

Petco Park is popular with both players and fans and is also home to San Diego Padres. One of the most scenic stadiums in MLB, Petco Park’s most notable feature is Western Metal Supply Co. building behind the left field wall - this brick building has balconies for fans to enjoy the game.

In addition, there is a small stand next to the building with a large scoreboard above it, and there is a two-story stand in right field with another scoreboard above it. When you start playing at this stadium in MLB 25, you will see several tall buildings against San Diego sky in center field, as well as a grass wall that can serve as a vantage point for the batter.

5. Bayfront Stadium

Bayfront Stadium is also a good stadium to use in MLB The Show 25 Ranked because of its atmosphere and the fact that the outfield wall is close to home plate - the right field wall is only 330 feet away from home plate. But the real attraction of Bayfront Stadium is the huge and colorful Ferris wheel that rotates behind right field. If you play a night game at the stadium, you will see the Ferris wheel light up in the night sky, which is very spectacular; during the daytime game, you can see an entire boardwalk and a yellow roller coaster across the skyline.

6. Old Texas Stadium

As the former home stadium of Texas Rangers, although Old Texas Stadium has been replaced by Globe Life Field, it does not mean that the scenery here has become less attractive. When you play in MLB 25, you will find that the dozens of towering balconies above the center field are full of fans, and there is also a grassy hill on the wall of the center field, and fans can run up to grab the home run ball, which is very interesting.

In addition, there are two enormous stands located in the left and right outfields around the center field. When you are on the second level of any stand, you know that you have hit the ball. In short, the outfield here is large, and the view for the batter is very wide, and the experience is very good.

The above are the 6 best stadiums in MLB The Show 25. If possible, you can prioritize the most distinctive ones according to your needs. I hope you can get the best baseball game experience in these stadiums!
