When MLB The Show 23 hit shelves on March 28, it did not take long for fans to start touting it as one of the best games of the year. The features and updated modes that fans can now avail themselves of is second to none.
Apart from keeping all of the video game's previous features, developer SanDiego Studios wanted to take things a step further in the seventeenth edition of the popular game.
Fans are now able to expand their capabilities in Stadium Creator Mode, as well as compete as Jackie Robinson and the Negro League teams of yore. However, Diamond Dynasty mode may have been the most attractive to most.
By completing in-game challenges, players can earn XP points in Diamond Dynasty. This allows fans to unlock more and more features with their XP points, which is directly linked to the number of in-game challenges allowed.

Recently, popular New York Yankees-based baseball page Jomboy Media posted one account of a fan who may have gotten a little bit too into MLB The Show 23.

According to the fan, he made the sacrifice of skipping his job on account of the popular video game, alleging that he put in 27 straight hours in front of his television. He also made a peculiar reference to spending the night in county jail after alleging that he found his wife with three men.
Jomboy Media did not even go to the measure of omitting the crazed fan's name. Instead, the page doubled down by releasing the rest of what the MLB The Show 23 player had to say.

In a way, the fan's endorsement of MLB The Show 23 is perhaps one of the best marketing mixes that the game could have asked for.

Franchise Mode, Road to the Show, and Diamond Dynasty are all great ways to promote the game. While the post might have been made facetiously, one could argue that it shows the crazy lengths that fans will go to for the popular game.
