Game Pulse - 2022 Season Set

GAME PULSE: 2022 SEASON SET

===========================

Step into the season a record that had stood for 61 years finally fell. This

set brings the complete 2022 professional baseball season to Game Pulse - all

30 teams, every player, and authentic ballpark cards reflecting real-world park

factors.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

---------------

- All 30 team rosters with full player cards (position players and pitchers)

- Every major league ballpark, with ratings derived from 2022 park

performance data

- New ratings built from the full 2022 regular season and postseason

CARD GENERATION

---------------

Every card is generated from actual 2022 season statistics. Batter and pitcher

ratings are built from real performance data across the full season, with park

factors computed from each stadium's run environment - so Aaron Judge's card

reflects his 62-homer assault on the record books, and every ballpark plays the

way it played.

62

--

Chasing a number that had stood since Roger Maris hit 61 in 1961, Aaron Judge

spent the summer rewriting the American League record book. He finished with 62

home runs - the most ever by an AL hitter - while batting .311 with 131 RBI and

a 1.111 OPS, leading the majors in home runs, runs, RBI, on-base percentage,

and slugging. He fell just short of the Triple Crown, edged for the batting

title on the season's final weekend, in a campaign that put him in the company

of Ruth, Maris, and Mantle. Every one of those 62 swings - all baked into his

card.

A SEASON FULL OF STARS

----------------------

Beyond Judge's chase, 2022 was packed with stars writing history. At 42, Albert

Pujols staged a final-season renaissance and launched career home run No. 700,

becoming just the fourth player ever to reach the mark. Justin Verlander came

back from missing an entire season to Tommy John surgery and won a unanimous AL

Cy Young behind an 18-4 record and a 1.75 ERA. Sandy Alcantara was a workhorse

for the ages, leading the majors with 228-2/3 innings and six complete games on

the way to a unanimous NL Cy Young. Paul Goldschmidt took NL MVP with a .981

OPS, 35 homers, and 115 RBI. Julio Rodriguez burst in as AL Rookie of the Year,

the fastest player ever to a 25-homer, 25-steal season. Jose Ramirez, Yordan

Alvarez, Manny Machado, Freddie Freeman, Nolan Arenado, Michael Harris II -

every star's real 2022 performance is here, card for card.

RELIVE THE 2022 WORLD SERIES

----------------------------

Houston Astros vs. Philadelphia Phillies. The Astros took the Fall Classic in

six games, capped by Yordan Alvarez's towering three-run home run that swung

Game 6. Along the way, Cristian Javier and three relievers combined to no-hit

the Phillies in Game 4 - the first combined no-hitter in World Series history

and only the second no-hitter the Series had ever seen. Rookie shortstop Jeremy

Pena hit .400 across the series and took home MVP honors, the first rookie

position player ever to do it. Replay it batter by batter, manage either side,

or run the series a few dozen times to see how often history repeats itself.

Every at-bat, every pitching change, every ballpark detail - all driven by the

real 2022 cards and the roll of the dice.
