How to make progress
The same as every other Inning Program: play games within Diamond Dynasty. It also helps for those who have outstanding XP that hasn’t been yet claimed in programs.
Aside from that, individuals who have collected all three 99 OVR 9th Inning Bosses can get a 50,000 XP voucher for the 10th Inning.
There were also three missions dropped on October 31, with more to follow on November 11. The first three are as follows:
- Tally 27 RBI with any players (5,000 XP)
- Tally 85 strikeouts with any players (7,500 XP)
- Tally 38 stolen bases with any players (10,000 XP)
Lastly, there are player exchanges, which can earn up to 50,000 XP. An addition 2,025 XP can be obtained through the 99 OVR Altuve exchange.
Bosses
As indicated above, there are three 99 OVR Cornerstone mini-bosses in the 10th Inning Program. All three do not have Evolutions; simply meet the XP threshold, and unlock the 99 OVR. Those three are as follows:
Cal Ripken Jr.
Frank Thomas
Nolan Ryan
Here’s a look at the three bosses, all of which are Finest cards:
Juan Soto
Aroldis Chapman
Nick Kurtz
This marks the release of the first 2025 Finest cards. More will be released on November 7, when Team Affinity: My Journey updates with the addition of 30 more.
