MLB The Show 22 is now available for everyone, which means PlayStation and Xbox players alike can try to clear the achievement and trophy lists. The game has 25 achievements and trophies, with PlayStation having an additional trophy for the platinum. Most of the list are things that happen naturally over the course of a few dozen baseball games, with some requiring specific difficulty settings. Few require some dedication, but even then the overall list isn’t all that difficult.

Overall, the list is relatively doable, with only a few items requiring a focused effort on your part. Things like “Professional Framer”, “Fighting Fire with Fire” and “Don’t rub it” all happen naturally during regular gameplay so you don’t have to focus on them. Some, like Coming in Hot – which requires you to catch a line drive moving faster than 110 MPH – are pretty much out of your control, although of course it’s likely to happen.
