Fix 'Base Hit To Right Field' Bug in MLB The Show 25: Step-by-Step Guide

Launch day for a new game like *MLB The Show 25* can be exhilarating, but it's not without its challenges. With countless players diving in to explore all the game's features, bugs are inevitable. One such bug currently affecting *MLB The Show 25* is the "Base hit to right field" issue. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to fix it and what you need to know about it.

What Is the 'Base Hit to Right Field' Bug in MLB The Show 25?

Even before *MLB The Show 25*'s launch, players noticed a peculiar issue at the plate. No matter where the ball actually went, the game's commentator, Boog Sciambi, would announce, "Swing and a ground ball. Base hit to right field." This can be confusing, especially when the ball ends up in left field or even out of the park.

Clearly, this is not what San Diego Studio intended. The commentary should accurately reflect the action on the field. This bug can be particularly problematic in gameplay, as it might lead players to misjudge where the ball is headed, potentially causing strategic errors like sending a runner home prematurely. However, there are steps you can take to mitigate this issue.

How To Fix the 'Base Hit to Right Field' Bug in MLB The Show 25

The simplest way to address the "Base hit to right field" bug is by turning off the commentators. You can do this by navigating to the game's settings and sliding the "Commentary Volume" down to zero. This prevents Boog Sciambi from making the incorrect call. However, there's a trade-off: you'll miss out on the auditory cues that help you gauge the game's action, like the sound of the bat connecting with the ball.

As of now, San Diego Studio has not officially addressed this bug, leaving players uncertain about a permanent fix. Given that it's launch week for *MLB The Show 25*, the developers are likely focused on ironing out various issues. Hopefully, a solution will be implemented soon, allowing players to enjoy the full audio experience without errors.
