Launch day for games like *MLB The Show 25* can be a thrilling yet challenging time, with a surge of players eager to explore every feature. Amidst the excitement, bugs can emerge, and one such issue currently affecting the game is the "Base hit to right field" bug. Here's a detailed guide on how to address this glitch in *MLB The Show 25*.

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

Even before the official launch of *MLB The Show 25*, players encountered a peculiar issue at the plate. Regardless of where the ball was hit, the game's commentator, Boog Sciambi, would consistently announce, "Swing and a ground ball. Base hit to right field." This can be confusing, especially when the ball lands in left field or even leaves the park.

This discrepancy between the commentary and the on-field action is not what San Diego Studio intended. The bug can lead to strategic misjudgments, such as sending a runner home under the false assumption that the ball is safely in right field. Fortunately, there are steps players can take to mitigate this issue.

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

The most straightforward solution to bypass the "Base hit to right field" bug is to mute the commentators. Navigate to the game's settings and adjust the "Commentary Volume" slider to zero. This prevents Boog Sciambi from making the incorrect call. However, this fix comes with a trade-off, as the absence of commentary might reduce the immersive experience, including the sound of the bat and other crucial audio cues that help players gauge the game's flow.

As of now, San Diego Studio has not officially addressed this bug, leaving uncertainty about a permanent fix. Given that it's launch week for *MLB The Show 25*, it's understandable that the developers are focused on ensuring the game runs smoothly across all platforms.
