How to unlock the Designated Dinger achievement in MLB The Show 23 - Definitive Guide

I unlocked this and and To the Moon! in a single at bat using the World Baseball Classic Tasks.
Choose Championship Moments--March 21: Schwarber Lifts Off and you'll be tasked with hitting a single home run with Kyle Schwarber batting against Yu Darvish. Use the power swing and have at it. If you fail just press A to try again. This task defaults to Veteran Difficulty.

It should be noted that the hitting difficulty for this moment is locked at VETERAN, so it can be challenging.

I'll try your method, but it might be slightly bugged. I hit 2 home runs with my DH in DD, play vs. CPU, and it didn't pop either time, nor did it appear after the game was over.

This is a good method for an easily repeatable shot at hitting an HR with the DH. I'd suggest swinging normal instead of power though. Schwarber has 125 power vs R pitching and a normal swing is more than enough to get a jack with that. It also keeps your PCI slightly bigger so you mishit a bit more.

Also the WBC program will be in avail through Dec 2023. So if somone is looking at this guide in 2024 or later it'll no longer apply

If anyone else had to hunt for this, it’s here:

Scroll down from the main menu to Quick Play > Moments > Other Programs > scroll down to World Baseball Classic > scroll down to March 21: Schwarber Lifts Off. It’s third from the bottom.

During the week 5/17 - 5/23 there is a diamond dynasty moment that has you hit a grand slam as Jason Giambi, the Yankees DH. It’s one at bat and retry for rapid attempts
