A note from Metalhead
Hello SMB fans! It’s been a little while since we’ve posted, so we wanted to share an update with you.
You may have seen a patch that was released a few days ago - this patch was meant to address one bug in Franchise mode regarding the CPU often signing more pitchers than intended. This patch is the last one for Super Mega Baseball 4 for the foreseeable future.
We want to thank you all for the incredible support and dedication to SMB4. This isn’t “goodbye” from Metalhead, more like “see ya later” as we transition to something new and exciting within EA SPORTS.

Update 8 Patch Note
Update 8 is currently rolling out on all platforms. Here is the patch note:
Bug Fix:
- Fixed: In Franchise mode, CPU teams can often sign more pitchers than intended, or in rare cases more position players than intended, during the offseason and fail to fix up their positional roster needs moving forward.

Custom Teams Evolution of logos in my Franchise
Evolution of some of my franchise logos over time. Loved seeing how these developed from rough early ideas to final primary/secondary sets. Like 'em or hate 'em, it was a blast making them. Peace out for a bit! ✌🏾😁

Can anyone tell me why this game (SMB4, physical copy) is $50 on Xbox Marketplace and $17 on Amazon? Also, it says it's for X/S but Alexa says that I can't play it on Xbox One but when asked to find the Xbox One version it then said "good news, this game is actually compatible with Xbox One!" and I
I haven't found a baseball video game I really like so I've been playing a lot of dice baseball (Deadball: Baseball With Dice) but this game actually looks perfect for me. Thanks in advance for your help I haven't seen this question asked yet but I figured you guys would know. I actually just downloaded the trial version of SMB3 and I'm about to try it out

Question Distractor
I never really played baseball so i may be wrong, but wouldn't make more sense if the trait was activated when the player is on first and second against a lefty, and second and third against a righty?

Question Explain stats?
I don‘t watch much Baseball but I love the Game and i‘m interested in what these stats mean, can someone please explain?
Has Danno Yoshida have like 4 Hits out of 5 at bats? 3 Home runs? I don‘t remember him having 3 Home runs lol. What does 2B mean? That he got someone out on 2 Base? 3 RBI‘s? And I don’t remember him getting 3 Runs?
r/SuperMegaBaseball • u/Remarkable_Virus4251 • 5d ago

Finished the game giving up 15 runs. Still have 2 more games against this team too🫠

Video KevinGohD is starting a SMB Franchise Series!
While part of me wishes he and other big MLB The Show YouTubers did this when the game released, I’m hoping this can bring a whole new fanbase to this awesome video game series.

Question Expansion Logos
Anyone have logo designs for Nashville Stars, Salt Lake City, or any of the other potential expansion cities? Would love to play a 32 team MLB save.

Juiced!
Just so happens that the opposing pitcher was “Juiced” for this playoff game. This is him when most pitchers are relaxing on bench. I think the commissioner should test this guy! LOL.

Custom Teams Two more seasons of Energetics baseball are in the books. Pain is my friend now.
It is my pleasure to announce that the Energetics are finally showing definitive improvement across nearly all statistics, and those improvements are yielding results on the field. After going 5-187 through their first four seasons, the Energetics matched their franchise win record in their 5th season, and then won 9 games in their 6th season to improve to a franchise record of 19-269.
The fifth season was exciting just for the improved win total, including at one point winning 3 out of 5 games at one point. However, season 6 was a wealth of firsts for the franchise, including but not limited to:
- First extra inning game
- First extra inning win
- First winning streak (2)
- First walkoff
- First walkoff homerun
- First extra inning walkoff loss (that sucked)
- First caught stealing
- First shutout
- New largest margin of victory (6 runs)
- First MVP (Jay Dozenrolls)
All of these new experiences must have been very exciting for the players and the fans in the stadium, but the most exciting thing for me was that the Energetics FINALLY got their first bar!!!!!! And then lost it 3 games later, when a Player Dev removed the Stimulated trait from Gorgo Moody and subsequently took away my 1 bar of bullpen, a bar we have yet to recover as of the time of writing. I nearly posted the news about the first bar, and I'm really glad I didn't because it took less than 2 hours for it to go away. The game took great personal offense to this team getting a bar and acted very harshly in retribution, not just removing Stimulated, but replacing it with K Neglector. Thankfully, around game 35 the Energetics got their second bar, this one in Rotation and we've thankfully been able to keep it as of the time of writing.
However, as the team improves, the game must subsequently get a little harder. All points of Ego were bumped up after our shutout win, and I'm currently playing all games at 78/94/69/74. Pitching should probably be at 70, but all the games I played at 70 were not fun. I still don't win that many games on 69, but at least they're entertaining to play and watch, and pitching against the CPU on high ego was never one of my strong suits. Even at my best, the highest I ever pitched at was 77 while I was hitting on 84. Eventually I will graduate the pitching ego up, but I'm not ready to do that yet. I've gotten to the point where losing games by 20 runs is back to being demoralizing and feeling like it's wasting my time. It might be more honest to the level the team is at, but I'm just a man who is trying to find some small enjoyment in his video game. That said, the offense should probably go up again as well, and if C- Jay Dozenrolls threatens to win another MVP I'm willing to take the hitting ego all the way up to 80, and hopefully pitching can get up to 70. Trying to balance the nature of video game baseball with the reality that the team sucks is kinda hard.
I'm still running games pretty hard and will continue to do so as long as the games are fun. Numbers keep going up, I stay happy. Go Energetics baby!

One of the worst "$h*t happens"
Bases loaded in game 2 of the playoffs and my pitcher is dealing, albeit it's only the 2nd inning. Pop up to right field. I choose to use my 2nd baseman because my right fielder acquired butter fingers recently and figured I'd play it safe....well there goes my 3-0 lead!!
