Launch day for games like *MLB The Show 25* can be a whirlwind of excitement and challenges as players dive into the new features. However, a bug known as the "Base hit to right field" has emerged, disrupting the experience for many. Here's a detailed guide on understanding and fixing this issue.

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

Even before *MLB The Show 25*'s official launch, players noticed a peculiar issue at the plate. No matter where the ball was hit, the commentator Boog Sciambi consistently announced, "Swing and a ground ball. Base hit to right field." This can be confusing, especially when the ball lands in left field or even clears the fences for a home run.

This misalignment between the commentary and the game's action is not what San Diego Studio intended. It can lead to strategic misjudgments, like sending a runner home under the assumption of a hit when the defense is ready to make a play. Thankfully, there are ways to address this problem.

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

The simplest solution to bypass the "Base hit to right field" bug is to mute the commentators. You can do this by navigating to the game's settings and lowering the "Commentary Volume" slider. This prevents Boog Sciambi from making the incorrect call, though it does mean you'll miss out on other audio cues that can enhance your gameplay experience. Ideally, this bug will be resolved soon, allowing players to enjoy the full audio experience once again.

As of now, San Diego Studio has not officially addressed this bug, leaving uncertainty about a permanent fix. Given that *MLB The Show 25* is in its launch week, it's understandable that the developers are focused on ensuring the game's overall performance. Patience might be necessary as they work to iron out this and other launch-day issues.
