MLB The Show 21 10th Inning Program: How to Unlock Milestone Albert Pujols & Superfractor Parallel
MLB The Show 21 officially hit extra innings in Diamond Dynasty, as they unveiled the 10th Inning Program. With that, comes a new Conquest Map, challenges, and a collection to build. Each of the game’s Inning programs has also featured several Bosses. However, the 10th Inning Program is a tribute to just one player: Albert Pujols. They’ve unveiled a Milestone card in honor of the superstar slugger, and here’s how you can add him to your roster.

The Show released a cool trailer (below) showing off Pujols in action for the game with a look at the card art.

Top attributes on the card (below) include 117 Contact Right, 125 Contact Left, 120 Power Right, 125 Power Left, and 115 Vision. For Defense, he’s got 86 Fielding, 85 Reaction, and 75 Arm Strength.
