The fifth month of the 2021 MLB season is in the books, which means it’s time for another Monthly Awards program in MLB The Show 21. Last month, Reds first baseman Joey Votto was the Lightning card, and that program is still available. But on September 8, Sony San Diego released the fifth Monthly Awards program of 2021. The second 99 OVR Lightning card has been released by SDS, and Blue Jays left-handed pitcher Robbie Ray is the recipient. So, what do you need to do to unlock Ray, plus all the other rewards in this program? Let’s go over what you need to know.

MLB The Show 21 August Monthly Awards program

Much like with other programs in MLB The Show, players will need to acquire points for the program. There are 20 different awards available in this program, one for each five points collected. This is how the reward program breaks down:

MLB The Show players can take home many awards this month, including 4000 Stubs, and 10 95+ OVR cards.

To make progress in this program, you’ll need to complete a combination of Collections, Moments, and Missions. Here’s one route that can get you to 100 Points:

Ideally, you will want to get the three 10 Points Missions done. Then, mix and match and pick eight of the other nine remaining Missions to get to 100. And yes, you have to do the collection to acquire the Lightning award. The collection can be completed by acquiring all the Monthly Awards cards for August and all Topps Now items. Topps Now cards can be obtained either through the choice packs from the August program and the special Moments.

Additionally, SDS added a new collection for the 6th Inning Program. MLB The Show players can acquire 20,000 XP and 100 Stubs towards the 6th Inning by acquiring three players from the August Monthly program.
