Alright, folks, let me tell you about my little adventure trying to get the Polo Grounds in MLB The Show 23. It wasn’t exactly a walk in the park, but I got there in the end, and I’m here to share my saga with you.
First Steps
So, I’m a big fan of these classic stadiums, right? They have this old-school charm that you just can’t get with the modern ones. And the Polo Grounds, with its crazy outfield dimensions, was the one I really wanted. I fired up MLB The Show 23 and started digging around, trying to figure out how to unlock it. There was not any clue about how to get it.

Digging Deeper
I spent a good chunk of time just playing the game, hoping it would magically pop up. No luck. Then I started poking around in Diamond Dynasty mode. I figured maybe it was tied to some sort of collection or something. I checked the Collections tab, but it wasn’t super clear what I needed to do. I started collecting those classic stadiums, thinking that was the key. Kept grinding through my cards, hoping to see Polo Grounds show up as a reward.
Asking Around
At this point, I hit up some online forums and communities. I saw a bunch of other people asking the same question: “How do I get Polo Grounds?” There were all sorts of answers, some saying you needed to collect certain player cards, others saying it was tied to specific missions. One guy said you gotta collect all the classic stadiums in the game. It was a mess! But I read a topic said “Classic stadiums collection reward”. Then I realized that it might be the right way.
The Breakthrough
I kept collecting those classic stadiums like my life depended on it. I even started buying some off the marketplace, which set me back a few stubs, but I was determined. Finally, after what felt like forever, I collected the last one. And there it was, the Polo Grounds, unlocked as a reward! I felt like I’d just won the World Series myself. Does that include negro league? I asked myself. No – well maybe, I thought. Whatever, I got the Polo Grounds!
Playing at the Polo Grounds
Playing a game at the Polo Grounds was everything I hoped it would be. Those weird outfield dimensions made for some interesting plays, that’s for sure. It felt like stepping back in time, and I loved every minute of it. Even They only go for like 1.5k in auction so it’s easy to get. But for me, it’s not about the money, it is about my feeling!
My Advice
- Focus on Collections: If you’re trying to unlock the Polo Grounds, your best bet is to focus on the Classic Stadiums collection in Diamond Dynasty.
- Be Patient: It might take a while to collect all the stadiums, so don’t get discouraged. Just keep grinding.
- Check the Marketplace: If you’re missing a few stadiums, you can usually find them on the marketplace. It might cost you some stubs, but it’s worth it.
- Enjoy the Journey: Unlocking the Polo Grounds is a fun challenge, so try to enjoy the process. It is the real meaning of the game.
So, that’s my story of how I unlocked the Polo Grounds in MLB The Show 23. It wasn’t easy, but it was definitely worth the effort. If you’re a fan of classic stadiums, I highly recommend going for it. Good luck, and have fun!
