How to unlock the Got ‘em All achievement in Nicktoons MLB - Definitive Guide

I found this one to be a little bit of a pain. This is what I ended up doing:

1. In settings make sure you pick easy, and 9 innings.

2. write down in a vertical column 1-9. This will be the scorecard for you to keep tract of what each player does. Use S-single, D-double, T=triple, H=homerun. (use graph paper to keep things neater).

3. I found the best option is to play showdown, and pick MLB players. For each position, find the players with 5 stars for speed, and ideally 4-5 stars for contact. For example, Dustin Pedroia, Jacoby Elsbery, Ichiro Suzuki, etc. Some positions will not have 5 star speed (catcher, 1st baseman) so pick the 5 star for contact and highest possible speed. Power and fielding is not important. Anyone can hit a homerun with the turbo button.

4. Play as visitor, so you will have 9 innings to work with, if you play as home, likely you will only have 8 innings.

5. As a batter hold the left stick up and slightly to the same side as the side he bats, and make sure that you swing when the pitch is in you 'hot zone'. This zone will be very large when you pick 5 stars for contact. Use 'A' not 'B' as we want as many hits as possible, not homeruns. It is worth not swinging on a strike if it is not in the zone. You will many times hit into the gaps, so getting a double is frequent and easy because most of your players will have 5 star speed. Take a gamble, when the ball is still in the outfield and you are near second especially when the ball is in the right field, as it is a longer throw to 3rd from there. The goal is to get as many different players triples. Triples are the hardest. You need doubles, singles and home runs as well, so if you get them 1st no big deal, just keep tract on your scorecard. If you have someone on base, frequently the outfielder will throw home, so you might be able to stretch into a triple. I got thrown out sometimes, but worth taking the chance. Similarly if you have a lot of turbo saved up, you can press LT when you pass 1st base, and he will run even faster.

6. Home runs are actually the easiest, as the turbo (left trigger)is an automatic homerun if you swing at the correct time. Obviously you cannot do this in the 1st inning.

7. Using the lineup of all-stars, I had 5 players get triples in the 1st 3 innings, and at the end Ichiro got the cycle, because he got a hit every at bat, and I had to hold him back to get a double and single. If he had failed I had 2 other guys that needed a HR as well to hit for the cycle by that time.

8. The achievement will pop immediately once you get it.

PS, you can use this lineup for the 10 RBI achievement as well. Just keep tract of the number of RBI each player has. The key is to have as many people on base before getting a home run (which should be very easy with turbo button). Because these same players should all be 4-5 star contact hitters, you should always have at least 1 person on base most of the time.

Worked like a charm, I'd recommend playing at San Francisco's ballpark as there is a unique outfield wall that can help you get triples easier.

You need to hit a single, double, triple, and a home run in a game. I used the Flying Duchman (green guy) because he is very quick.

Play as the home team so you bat last and that way you can get some turbo from pitching. You can start however you like, but i would try for the triple first. Make sure to use 'B' to swing, so you can get more power on the shot, and hold RT and use your Left Analog stick to keep him moving around the bases. The triple is the hardest to get, once you get that your golden.

Of course the homerun is easiest when you use the turbo. The achievement will unlock in game (card will unlock as well).

Flying Dutchman was who got it for me too. Triple is the hardest one to get. I was just playing a 9 inning till whoever got the first Triple i would then focus on that person for the others.

Flying Dutchman was definitely the way to go. But i had trouble with him getting stuck with the Left Thumbstick going for the triple. I used the LB instead to advance bases.

Also I was restarting when I didn't get the triple on the first at bat and having no luck, so I switched to the arizona diamondbacks as and opponent an got it easily, not sure if was the choice of team, pitcher (it was the lobster on the team giving me trouble, i'm not sure who was pitching when I got it), or just random luck.

You really, really need to say this has to be done with the same PLAYER. I got all the run types you said across a few games and couldnt figure out why it was not unlocking. Luckily someone on another site had explained it correctly.

laugh Hitting for the cycle implies that you used the same person.

It's better to do this as the away team so you bat first and last. If you're home team you might not get your last at bat if you're winning.

oh okay, you need to do it with one person. I was pissed after I got triple/double/single/home run and nothing popped

Lol. "Hit for the Cycle" automatically means with the same player in one game (as someone else stated above). facepalm Funny that this has confused so many people. +1

Easiest way to get a triple.

-First pick a team with the fastest players possible.

-With a runner on first (ideally) or second, hit the ball to the outfield even if it's a simple base hit.

-Press and stay on the LB button to have both the base runner and hitter running.

-As the base runners moves around the bases the computer will focus on trying to get the lead runner out.

-While your lead runner is getting tagged at home plate, stay on the LB button and your hitter will make it to 3rd base without a problem.

-You can do the same for a double too, just stay at 2nd base instead of going to 3rd.

While this solution is top notch, in reality it doesn't match the rules of baseball. Thanks for pointing this out because I never would have attempted it this way because when someone else is tagged out it's a fielders choice in real life, lucky not in this game though smile

You must get a Single, Double, Triple and Home Run with the same player. There is no way in the game to keep track of what hits your players have, so simply write down what your players have or just focus on one player (IMO, the easiest method).

The Triple is the hardest hit to get because you have to run all the way to 3rd before the CPU throws you out. The best method to get a Triple is to hit a ball into the Left/Center Field or Right/Center field gap and using Turbo, run from first to third.

*Note: Use the to tell your player which base to run towards. I.E., point the to have your runner run from first to second and then point the to have your runner run from second to third. Make sure you are in a 9-inning game so you will have more at-bats/opportunities to get hits.
