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

Launch day can be a whirlwind for any game, especially when eager players dive in to explore every feature. With *MLB The Show 25*, a pesky bug known as the “Base hit to right field” issue has emerged, but don't worry—there's a way to fix it.

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

Even before *MLB The Show 25* hit the shelves, early players noticed a recurring issue at the plate. No matter 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 disorienting, especially if the ball lands in left field or sails out of the park.

Clearly, this isn't what San Diego Studio intended. The commentary should match the on-field action. This bug can lead to strategic missteps, such as sending a runner home under the false assumption that the ball is safely through the infield. Fortunately, there's a temporary fix until a permanent solution arrives.

The simplest solution is to mute the commentators by sliding the “Commentary Volume” to zero in the game settings. This stops Boog Sciambi from misannouncing plays, though it does mean you'll miss out on the immersive sound of the bat and other helpful auditory cues. Hopefully, this bug will be short-lived, allowing players to enjoy the full audio experience again soon.

As of now, San Diego Studio hasn't officially addressed the “Base hit to right field” bug, so it's unclear when a permanent fix might arrive. Given it's launch week for *MLB The Show 25*, it's understandable that the developers are focused on ensuring the game runs smoothly overall.

That's how you can address the “Base hit to right field” bug in *MLB The Show 25*. If you're interested in more tips, check out whether to go to college or go pro in this year's Road to the Show.
