Each item does something different. Naturally, cleats improve your speed and stealing. Fielding gloves help on defense. Protective gear, like wrist or elbow guards, help with durability. Adding a powerful bat can help your swing produce more. Whether you’re in the outfield or infield, you can always use a boost to arm accuracy, arm strength, batting clutch, plate vision, and more, so be sure to find and use the right equipment.

Some boosts, like stamina, hit per nine innings, velocity, and more, are exclusive to pitchers. So if you are a batter, you won’t need those boosts. Fortunately, all equipment, for the most part, is helpful to every single player. Even if you’re not a catcher, you can equip some catcher masks that will add a bit of durability.

✓ Zach’s Tips

Buy equipment in the Diamond Dynasty Marketplace

We like Road to the Show so much that we’re willing to spend hard-earned stubs on gear in the Diamond Dynasty Marketplace. There’s plenty of helpful equipment there, so you may consider doing the same and passing up on that pack or card in favor of a very nice bat or pair of cleats.

All of this gear is available regardless of platform, you can buy it on Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, or PlayStation 5. It is exclusive to Road to the Show. However, you can earn gear by opening packs received in Diamond Dynasty mode.

That’s all for the best equipment in MLB The Show 24, but be sure to check out how to play as a womanhow to get traded, and how to upgrade your player.
