The top 16 players from each qualifier will play in the Grand Finals starting on June 18. Players that don’t get a top 16 finish in their first entry can try again in any of the remaining qualifiers.
- On Day One of each Summer Circuit Qualifier, all players will compete in an open ladder format. Competitors can queue up at any time within an eight-hour window, but must complete six three-inning games for their score to count. Each win earns a player a point and each loss loses a player a point. The top 64 players (plus ties) will move on to Day Two.
- On Day Two, the top 64 players (plus ties) will compete in a single-elimination bracket playing nine-inning games. Every player who reaches Day 2 will receive at least 11,000 MLB The Show Stubs.
- The Grand Finals will take place from June 18-19. Day One will feature a single-elimination bracket format with the top 64 players from the four Open Qualifiers.
- On Day Two, watch the final four competitors play on the San Diego Studio Twitch channel with 1st place taking home $15,000!
