Gameplay-focused objectives

Important conditions and progress considerations
- Simulation restrictions are objective-specific. The guides attach “excluding simulated gameplay” to only certain requirements. Do not treat it as a universal rule for the whole list.
- Some objectives are multi-season or mode-bound. Hall of Fame entry and a World Series win may require substantial progress, and their eligible modes are limited to MTO, Franchise, or RTTS.
- Use the exact same game for Jack of All Settings. Switching interfaces across separate games does not match its stated requirement.
- Going Pro calls for 10 ambush-hitting hits. The target is hits, not merely attempts using the interface.
- Settings advice is not a guarantee. Operation Sports recommends easier settings in offline modes to improve the odds for some objectives, but mode-specific and long-term requirements still apply.
