Hey Gamers — I am Loving MLB 9 Innings and You Will Too
The following are three reasons to get addicted to MLB 9 Innings:
- If you into numbers
- If you are into baseball
- If you are into strategy
If you are into at least three of those, then you should dive in! It’s on iOS and Android.
It’s my favorite mobile game and favorite baseball management game.
If you are in, pick your team, and start building.
My Update
I started playing the game about nine months ago and six months ago decided to take on the insane task of building a Top 100 in the game.
One of the great things about the game is there are several different games within the game.
One of my favorite modes is Battle — you build your lineup to the highest possible “Ability” or “OVR” or overall rating. You play Ranked Battle and compete with other teams all week, and on Sunday night the scores are tallied and the week re-sets.
I’ve made some progress, cracking the Top 10,000. When I started with my crazy goal, I was outside of the Top 20,000.
Team: Philadelphia Phillies
OVR: 111.8 (no gear)
Ranking: 8,628
My Phillies team deck now 5 Team Signature pitchers and 6 Team Signature Batters. These are a specific type of card you will want to collect for your team’s long-term success.
My recent additions to the team signatures include Al Holland and Hector Neris in the bullpen.
I’ve got an Alec Bohm team signature card that I am training and I will add as my 12th to the deck.
I also picked up my first Phillies card for Craig Kimbrell, their current closer. I used with my “Live Diamond Wish Pack” reward, which is one cool thing about the game. If you are patient, you can get some pretty cool cards. I finished the basic upgrades and training on him so he looks great for a basic card.
As a side project, in League Play, I decided to make a deck of 2023 Phillies players, and it’s almost complete. I’ve got most of it put together.
If you are a Phillies fan or loyal to your team, collecting them all can be fun, like collecting physical baseball cards.
If you are into sports and strategy games, then why not have some fun with me and the community?
If you like it, consider joining my Club — another mode of play. My club is MTLbaseball (OVR 91.3; Ranking: 1,613), you can join me once you have a good deck so we can help each other win.
I hope you enjoy reading and following me to learn from my Ws and Ls! See you again soon.
