I got Firstball Hitter from the random "watch the sun rise with Marvin" event. This occurred in year 2, second week of June (Credit to fuji49)

I got POOR MORALE when Marvin came around with tickets to a baseball game.
I replied negatively. Something like "where did you get those" and "I don't believe you". Can't remember exactly what it is. (Credit to Mr. Welz)

I got Good Pickoff after being introduced to Pelene by Joey (Credit to DarkShade)

Got Hot Head, by completing the ninja challenge (dodging the shuriken) with low vitality. (Credit to josegarcia)

I got the tough runner ability after Marvin and I went to the baseball game. I chose to step out of the way and my guy was hit by the ball instead. (Credit to ratly)

You can get Dr.K in Success Mode games if you have the glove Dr.K and strike out a lot.

Correction on earlier, I don't think you get anything from Sittch's first training as a pitcher because I just did a perfect 10/10 and got no abilities


Why don't you try loading your game again and see if getting another 10/10 will get you an ability? :P

Whenever I get 10/10 with Sittch, I never get an ability, but if I get 7/8/9, then I might get one.

Nope, I'm sure I didn't. I find it incredibly coincidental that this always happens to me. As a hitter, if I get 10/10, I don't get hot hitter and gd b2b hitter, but if I go 8/9, I do. 7 only gets me hot hitter.

As stated by Darkshade/MaxD, quite a few times. This game is not 100% on all outcomes, there always seems to be a percentage chance that things don't and do happen.

I notice the same thing. 10/10 has never given me a skill, #8,9 I have recieved one skill, and with 6 I seem to have gotten two skills several times. 7 only gets me one also. I think they have done this to give more opportunity to get skills for the average player, since most people will get 5-6 easily, but have a hard time getting over 7.

I always thought it was just me, but there might be something to this.
