However, if there is one type of challenge that you should go out and attempt to complete right now is Moments.
These encapsulate iconic moments in history replicated into one MLB The Show 24 play or succession of plays throughout an inning. For completing each Moment, you will be awarded Team Affinity points which will help you get rewards such as player cards belonging to the division they are from.
