All-Star Huston Street has been added to the 1st Inning Program in MLB The Show 21. This is the second player program for the 1st Inning, joining Veteran Eric Davis. Street is an 87 overall closer with a 4-seam, slider, circle change, and 2-seam fastball. You can unlock this card by doing a variety of missions, exchanges, and moments — as per usual.
Street is an acquired taste. Generally speaking, he’s usually not “meta” and can be hard to use. If he does slide on to your team, usually it’s as a right-on-righty specialist. His velocity is not anything special, so it’s really all about showing some guts with fastballs at times, nibbling on the corners with offspeed, and then making people chase. His slider and circle change are the money pitches, but circle changes are now one of the harder pitches to throw consistently with the new Pinpoint Pitching system. Still, the slider and circle change both have great movement, so I think he’s worth a shot as pitchers can vary year to year in The Show in terms of their effectiveness.
As for the impact on the 1st Inning Program, you will earn 35,000 XP for locking in this card to the collection. I would expect this to be the last player program for the 1st Inning as well. Beyond that, just a note that generally pitchers are easier to unlock than hitters because the moments are usually even easier. This is even more true for relievers because the requirements are just simpler and faster to knock out. I would usually say knock out these player programs however you want, but in this case the fastest way is probably just doing all the moments and beating the CPU on All-Star.
