23 0 24Actions Report Solution After many thousands of pitches with no luck this is how I got it within 10 minutes in an exhibition game, throwing only 26 fastballs in total:PITCHING- Use a fastball pitcher (95MPH+)- Throw nothing but high and inside fastballs in on the batter's handsGAMEPLAY SETTINGS- Pitching Difficulty: Beginner- Pitching Interface: ClassicSLIDER SETTINGS- CPU Contact FULL RIGHT (100%)- CPU Power FULL LEFT (0%)- CPU Timing FULL RIGHT (100%)- CPU Foul Frequency FULL RIGHT (100%)- CPU Solid Hits FULL LEFT (0%)I unlocked this in 26 pitches, and on my 6th batter faced. Using pitcher Christian Javier on the Astros, vs. the Athletics. Any high velocity pitcher should do just fine. Champman (NYY), Cole (NYY), Kershaw (LAD), Ohtani (LAA), deGrom (NYM), Kimbrel (CHC), Glasnow (TBR), etc. Some have found success with the slider as well, but likely when coming in on the batter, such as a RH pitcher throwing a slider to a LH batter. If you are using a RH pitcher, pitch to a team whose lineup is left handed batter heavy. If you are using a LH pitcher, try to pitch to a team whose lineup is right handed batter heavy.Guide not helping? View 2 more guides for this achievement.Showing most recent comments.

I tried almost all of these methods once at least and was going to just save this for last, but in my March to October run, I actually broke bats 2 times in the same game with a low Cutter. So my recommendation would be, play all of the modes you have to first and let some of these happen naturally.Posted by UGotta Check It on 13 Apr 22 at 14:57 ^ Are you new to TA? Noone actually plays games normally here. That's against the creed we have to memorize and follow to maintain our membership. Consider this a warning.Posted by Boots Orion on 13 Apr 22 at 17:29 @MrFreakzilla I have played this game A LOT..normally, as I'm a big baseball fan and never ended up getting this. I literally grabbed Chapman vs Blue Jays. I got it within 8-10 pitches. lolMy suggestion is to throw a fastball inside, on their hands...middle to low in the zone. Throwing high and inside just seems to get a ton of foul balls.Posted by Chaoticstea1th on 20 Aug 22 at 07:44 Leave a comment
9 6 16Actions Report Solution This achievement is not an exact science, because it requires a bit of luck but pitching inside and sooner (aka, throw towards the hitter) around belt / waist high, so when they swing the ball causes the bat to break at the handle.Showing most recent comments. View all comments. My last achievement... and I've thrown thousands of inside pitches at this point to no avail.Posted by Groux on 27 Apr 21 at 11:19 I was struggling to get this against the AI - at least several hundred innings pitched. I played online and kept throwing breaking balls up and high and got it within 5-6 innings. Obviously not an exact science, but if you're struggling like I was, I'd recommend trying online.Posted by Ya Big Goof on 27 Apr 21 at 12:48 Just a tip for people that don't know American baseball...a "breaking ball" is a SLOW(er) pitch and a lot less likely to break a bat. I broke two on my WS run in October mode, both against Beginner AI, and both with Astros pitcher McCullers. Both times I threw a "cutter" (type of fastball) to the low inside corner of the strike zone. No slider adjustments at all, just default settings.Posted by ScuzzyBunny on 09 Jun 21 at 00:20

Great solution! It wasn't unlocking for me. I picked the teams you suggested and tried again, after the first 3 I restarted the game and I could break the bat of the first player showing up!Posted by Moliitov on 05 May 21 at 14:56 That video doesn't help at all and you should delete it, he just says to do march to October (which I already did). BUT with the settings you had vs Oakland I got it my 5th pitch of the gamePosted by Gram101216 on 13 Dec 21 at 02:57
