MLB The Show 25 May Spotlight Program focuses on players who have performed well in May. By completing these tasks and earning points, players can unlock rewards for May Spotlight Program. Among these rewards, two 88 OVR Topps Now series cards and one 91 OVR Spotlight series card are worth noting. Besides Moments and Missions, players can also complete collection tasks, which can earn numerous points at a time, but require many MLB 25 stubs for sale to collect players. Missions Get 1,000 PXP with May Spotlight Drop 1 Get 350 PXP with Topps Now Kyle Manzardo Get 350 PXP with Topps Now Zach Agnos Get 5 extra-base hits with a player who is primarily a right fielder Get 12 Total Bases with a player who is primarily a center fielder Get 7 hits with a player who is primarily a third baseman Get 10 home runs with a Miami Marlins player Get 15 strikeouts with a Minnesota Twins pitcher Rewards 5 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 10 points: 88 OVR Topps Now Kyle Manzardo 15 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 20 points: 88 OVR Topps Now Zach Agnos 25 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 30 points: Ballin' is a Habit pack 35 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 40 points: 5,000 XP 45 points: May Spotlight pack Drop 1 50 points: 91 OVR Spotlight Kyle Stowers Kyle Stowers finally proved his worth this May, as he hit home runs against Dodgers and Athletics, earning him NL Player of the Week honors. In his recent game against the Angels, Kyle Stowers showed his best form in Marlins' loss. For this card, 91 OVR Spotlight Kyle Stowers ranks 35th among right fielders. He is a good left-handed hitter who is quite good at hitting pitches from the right, but he is quite bad at dealing with pitches from the left. Missions Get 1,000 PXP with May Spotlight Drop 2 Get 350 PXP with Topps Now Matthew Lugo Get 350 PXP with Topps Now Stephen Kolek Get 350 PXP with Spotlight Kyle Stowers Get 12 total bases with a player who is primarily a left fielder Get 5 extra-base hits with a player who is primarily a first baseman Get 10 strikeouts with a player who is primarily a starting pitcher Get 10 home runs with a Yankees player Get 24 total bases with a Cardinals player Rewards 5 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 10 points: 88 OVR Topps Now Matthew Lugo 15 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 20 points: 88 OVR Topps Now Stephen Kolek 25 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 30 points: Ballin' is a Habit pack 35 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 40 points: 5,000 XP 45 points: May Spotlight pack Drop 2 50 points: 91 OVR Spotlight Jasson Dominguez Jasson Dominguez had an exceptional May month, hitting three home runs in a single game. Although his overall batting average was low, his power and bat speed showed his incredible talent. Jasson Dominguez is a switch hitter, and this card shows that. The defensive stats are high, but there are no quirks, much like 91 OVR Spotlight Kyle Stowers, which limits the card's potential. Both of these guys are very good free outfielders and would be great options to have when building your team if you don't have enough stubs. Fortunately, you can also get a lot of MLB 25 stubs at EZG at a very low cost, without worrying about security and delivery. It will definitely give you a pleasant surprise. Missions Get 1,000 PXP with May Spotlight Drop 3 Get 350 PXP with Topps Now Mick Abel Get 350 PXP with Topps Now Moises Ballesteros Get 350 PXP with Spotlight Jasson Dominguez Complete 3 home runs with a player who is a primary first baseman Complete 12 total bases with a player who is a primary right fielder Complete 5 extra-base hits with a player who is a primary catcher Complete 10 extra-base hits with a Giants player Complete 24 total bases with a Reds player Rewards 5 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 10 points: 88 OVR Topps Now Mick Abel 15 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 20 points: 88 OVR Topps Now Moises Ballesteros 25 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 30 points: Ballin' is a Habit pack 35 points: MLB The Show 25 pack 40 points: 5,000 XP 45 points: May Spotlight pack Drop 3 50 points: 92 OVR Spotlight Wilmer Flores Recently, Wilmer Flores hit three home runs in a game, one of which was a grand slam. This earned his Team 8 points, giving San Francisco Giants a near-crushing victory. 92 OVR Spotlight Wilmer Flores is an almost perfect switch hitter, with both contact and power at the best level, which is why he only has one quirk but ranks 13th among first basemen. Although Rafael Palmeiro, worth about 4,500 stubs, is the 12th-ranked first baseman, the free card Wilmer Flores has a higher floor with excellent stats, and he will definitely not have any terrible performance, so Wilmer Flores is more useful in your team. The above are MLB The Show 25 May Spotlight missions and rewards. Most missions won't waste too much of your time, with Spotlight series of cards serving as both excellent hitters for your team and helping you complete collection missions. TIME BUSINESS NEWS

CAPITOL ROUNDUP: $5M proposed investment to help people with disabilities find, retain employment
Apr. 20—WILKES-BARRE — The Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry (L&I) this week joined more than 550 autism-support students and educators from 16 Pennsylvania schools Tuesday for the 2025 Autism Awareness and Acceptance Walk and Resource Fair held at the Department's Hiram G. Andrews Center (HGAC). Gov. Josh Shapiro's proposed 2025-26 budget calls for an additional $5 million investment in L&I's Office of Vocational Rehabilitation (OVR) to assist people with disabilities in finding employment through personalized services such as goal setting and counseling, vocational guidance and job placement. "At L&I, we're not just raising awareness — we're transforming lives by breaking down barriers for Pennsylvanians with autism and other disabilities," said Jill Moriconi, director of the Commonwealth Technical Institute at HGAC. "Through our work at HGAC, we're creating pathways to independence and meaningful careers where every person is supported and celebrated." Established in 1959 and operated through OVR, the HGAC campus includes the Commonwealth Technical Institute (CTI), an accredited post-secondary trade and technical school specializing in education for individuals with disabilities. CTI offers three associate degree programs that prepare students for work in medical offices, the culinary arts, and networking technology. CTI also offers five diploma programs for careers in automotive technology, culinary assistant, early childhood education, nurse aide, and welding technology. The Governor's proposed 2025-26 budget looks to build upon these investments in Pennsylvania's workforce, across multiple sectors. Annually, more than 50,000 individuals with disabilities receive services through the vocational rehabilitation program and an additional 17,000 students with disabilities utilize OVR's pre-employment transition services that become available to Pennsylvania students with disabilities starting at age 14. Rep. Meuser co-sponsors legislation to unleash American energy U.S. Rep. Dan Meuser, R-Dallas, this week co-sponsored the Unlocking Our Domestic LNG Potential Act of 2025 (H.R. 1949) — legislation aimed at cutting bureaucratic red tape and lifting burdensome energy export restrictions imposed by the Biden administration. Rep. Meuser said under President Biden, the administration halted LNG export approvals, which jeopardized thousands of jobs, threatened U.S. national security, and reversed years of American energy progress. Rep. Meuser said on his first day in office, President Trump lifted these restrictions, reopening global markets for American natural gas and restoring U.S. energy dominance. Rep. Meuser said H.R. 1949 would depoliticize LNG export decisions by removing the Department of Energy's (DOE) authority over export approvals and placing that responsibility solely with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). He said this reform would ensure that American energy projects are evaluated on their merits rather than stalled by political or partisan agendas. For Pennsylvania, Rep. Meuser said the stakes are incredibly high. He said the Marcellus Shale region — essential to the state's economy — supports more than 123,000 jobs and contributes over $25 billion to the state's GDP annually. Nationally, Rep. Meuser said the natural gas industry fuels more than 10 million jobs and generates nearly $1.8 trillion in economic activity. "The Biden Administration's decision to restrict U.S. natural gas exports was a strategic misstep that undermined our economic strength and global leadership," Rep. Meuser said. "President Trump reversed course, putting America back on track as the world's energy powerhouse. LNG exports are essential to maintaining our role as the economic 'arsenal of democracy' — especially in times of global instability. This bill cuts through unnecessary red tape by removing the DOE's export approval authority and ensures projects are evaluated on merit, not politics. I urge my colleagues to support this commonsense step toward American energy independence and security." H.R. 1949 has been referred to the House Energy and Commerce Committee for further consideration. U.S. senators request full retroactive payments under Social Security Fairness Act U.S. Senators John Fetterman (D-PA), Susan Collins (R-ME), Bill Cassidy, M.D. (R-LA), and John Cornyn (R-TX) recently sent a letter to Social Security Acting Administrator Leland Dudek requesting that the Social Security Administration (SSA) review agency policy and grant maximum retroactive payments to all protected spouses under the Social Security Fairness Act (SSFA). The SSFA, co-authored by Sen. Collins and co-sponsored by Senators Fetterman, Cassidy, and Cornyn, restores earned Social Security benefits for millions of public employees and their spouses by repealing the Windfall Elimination Provision and the Government Pension Offset. The SSFA also provided for retroactive payments to January 2024. "Over the past few weeks, several constituents have contacted our offices regarding the retroactivity of their spousal benefits under the Social Security Fairness Act," the Senators wrote. "The law provides for retroactivity to the year the bill was introduced, first being applied to the January 2024 payment. These spouses, including widows and widowers, have shared with me that when they contacted the Social Security Administration years ago inquiring into spousal benefits, they were told by SSA employees that their spousal benefits would be reduced to $0 due to the Government Pension Offset; and therefore, there was no need to file an application for spousal benefits. Now, these same spouses are being told to file a claim for spousal benefits yet are only being granted a maximum of six months retroactivity from their most recent date of contact with the SSA." Nationally, since implementing automated benefit adjustments under the SSFA, SSA has paid more than 2.2 million beneficiaries a total of $14.6 billion in retroactive benefits.

Gov. Shapiro proposes $5M to help people with disabilities find, retain employment
PENNSYLVANIA (WTAJ) — The Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry (L&I) joined more than 550 autism-support students and educators from 16 Pennsylvania schools for the 2025 Autism and Acceptance Walk. The walk, held at the department's Hiram G. Andrews Center, was meant to support and empower Pennsylvanians with disabilities. In an effort to continue the support, Governor Josh Shapiro's proposed 2025-2026 budget calls for an additional $5 million investment in L&I's Office of Vocational Rehabilitation (OVR). 'At L&I, we're not just raising awareness – we're transforming lives by breaking down barriers for Pennsylvanians with autism and other disabilities,' Jill Moriconi, Director of the Commonwealth Technical Institute at HGAC, said. 'Through our work at HGAC, we're creating pathways to independence and meaningful careers where every person is supported and celebrated. Governor Shapiro's proposed investments in vocational rehabilitation reflect our commitment to building a Commonwealth where disability is not recognized as a limitation, but as a powerful source of innovation, resilience, and strength for our communities and our economy.' In addition to the proposed $5 million for OVR, some other key proposed investments are: $1 million to the Centers for Independent Living (CIL) to recruit and hire staff $5 million to support workforce initiatives to educate, train, and recruit nursing professionals $12.5 million dedicated to the Workforce and Economic Development Network appropriation, leveraging $10 million in existing funds and $2.5 million in new state funds to train additional workers $10 million to further boost employment in the behavioral health sector by expanding the Primary Care Loan Repayment Program at the Department of Health (DOH), broadening the program's geographic eligibility requirements and making it available to behavioral health care workers in all regions of Pennsylvania and $55 million to support childcare workforce recruitment and retention grants; this would provide roughly $1,000 more annually per employee to licensed childcare centers in the Child Care Works program. Currently, the budget has yet to be approved. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
