APRIL 24 DIAMOND DYNASTY UPDATE

With Team Affinity Stage 2 officially out, you can now earn a maximum of 120 points in each team affinity program. The “stage” aspect is important to remember, because you’ll need to complete Stage 1 missions and showdowns in order to even access Stage 2 rewards.

Showdown mode has been updated for Stage 2, with American League and National League as the only options. This will mean a wider variety for final showdowns.

• 80 points – team nameplate
• 90 points – 3 Team Affinity packs
• 100 points – Ballin’ Is A Habit pack (guaranteed gold player)
• 110 points – 3,000 stubs
• 120 points – Future Stars diamond player
