MLB The Show 25 Update 9 Available Today - Patch Notes

MLB The Show 25 game update #9 arrived earlier this morning, addressing a few lingering issues across multiple modes. One fix takes care of a problem where guessed pitches weren’t landing where they were supposed to when using the guess pitch feature. Updated stats now show up as PA – AVG – HR – RBI – SB, replacing the previous format in the pause menu.

In Road to the Show, CPU batters had a knack for making contact on the first pitch no matter where it was thrown—something that’s now been resolved. Franchise Mode also gets a useful tweak, as prorated salaries after mid-season trades are now correctly reflected in team budgets. Check out the full patch notes below. Thanks to KnightTemplar for the featured screenshot from our Photographic Side of MLB The Show 25 thread.
