With July comes, MLB 25 has launched 5th Inning Program. Players can unlock all rewards bit by bit by accumulating XP.

Like other Inning Programs, 5th Inning Program You can also use accumulated XP to advance. You can accumulate EXP in modes such as Diamond Dynasty, RTTS and Conquest. One difference from other Inning Programs is that you can now convert unclaimed cards into XP, and the maximum value of a card is 15,000 XP.
96 OVR Awards Emmanuel Clase
- Stamina: 25
- H/9: 120
- K/9: 86
- BB/9: 105
- HR/9: 99
- Pitch Clutch: 125
- Control: 93
- Velocity: 99
- Break: 99
There is also a 96 OVR Emmanuel Clase in the rewards, which you cannot unlock with MLB The Show 25 stubs.
This card is the second best closer in the game, with an exceptional Pitch Clutch attribute and other attributes that are also top-notch. However, he only has three pitches: Cutter, Slider and Sinker.
MLB 25 player above him is 96 OVR Spotlight Adrian Morejon from June Spotlight Drop 4 Pack, and his value is around 32,000 stubs.
5th Inning Program Bosses
97 OVR All-Star Hank Aaron
Contact Right: 103
Contact Left: 100
Power Right: 96
Power Left: 90
Vision: 86
Discipline: 77
Clutch: 125
Bunt: 35
Drag Bunt: 25
Durability: 99
97 OVR Hank Aaron represents Braves right fielder who played for Braves from 1954 to 1974. Although he used a right-handed swing, he was able to effectively handle the ball from any direction.
This card ranks third among right fielders, while the first two require you to complete very difficult collection tasks. In addition, this card has 9 quirks, making him more powerful in various situations. If you do not choose this card, you can still trade him in the trade market, and his value is currently around 45,000 stubs.
97 OVR All-Star Greg Maddux
Stamina: 112
H/9: 100
K/9: 88
BB/9: 101
HR/9: 93
Pitch Clutch: 117
Control: 95
Velocity: 63
Break: 99
97 OVR Greg Maddux represents his time as a starting pitcher for Braves from 1993 to 2003, during which he was selected to All-Star Game six times.
The only drawback of this card is that his velocity is only 63, but his other attributes are very good, even enough to make him the third starting pitcher at present, and the first two are Roger Clemens and Clayton Kershaw with 99 OVR. Compared with them, Greg Maddux’s advantage is that he can appear in the player market trade, and as long as you have 45,000 stubs now, you can get him.
97 OVR All-Star Chipper Jones
- Contact Right: 106
- Contact Left: 101
- Power Right: 105
- Power Left: 81
- Vision: 85
- Discipline: 93
- Clutch: 104
- Bunt: 40
- Drag Bunt: 31
- Durability: 98
Chipper Jones spent his baseball career with Braves, and he was selected to All-Star Team for 8 times. 97 OVR Chipper Jones can only play as a third baseman, and it’s a shame they didn’t give this card a left fielder position.
Chipper Jones is a switch hitter. His Contact and Power attributes are both good, and he has 7 Quirks. He is currently ranked second among third basemen, first to 99 OVR Scott Rolen.
I recommend you to choose Greg Maddux and Emmanuel Clase, because they are more valuable than Chipper Jones. You can unlock Chipper Jones later in the player market.
That’s all for the 5th Inning Program. You may not unlock all the rewards quickly, but that’s okay. It won’t end until July 25th, so EZG recommend you still have a lot of time to take your time.
