Launch day jitters are common for any game, and MLB The Show 25 is no exception. Countless players exploring its features have uncovered a few bugs, one of the most prominent being the persistent "Base hit to right field" commentary glitch. Let's dive into how to resolve this frustrating issue.
Understanding the "Base Hit to Right Field" Bug
Even before its official launch, players reported a curious anomaly: regardless of where a ball actually lands – left field, center field, even a home run – commentator Boog Sciambi consistently announces, "Swing and a ground ball. Base hit to right field." This disconnect between on-screen action and commentary is not only confusing but can also impact gameplay. Players might misjudge a play's outcome, leading to incorrect base running decisions.
The Fix: Silence the Commentary
The simplest solution is to mute the offending commentary. Navigate to the game's settings and locate the "Commentary Volume" slider. Reduce it to zero. While this eliminates the inaccurate calls, it also removes the atmospheric sounds and excitement provided by the commentary. Hopefully, this is a temporary workaround until a proper fix is implemented.
Waiting for a Patch
San Diego Studio hasn't yet addressed this bug directly, so there's no guarantee of an immediate permanent fix. Given it's launch week, some leeway is understandable as the developers work to polish the game.
Conclusion
This guide explains how to quickly silence the problematic commentary in MLB The Show 25. Keep an eye out for updates from San Diego Studio for a complete resolution.
MLB The Show 25 is available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.
