Best Pitching Settings for MLB The Show 25

In *MLB The Show 25*, while hitting may capture the spotlight, pitching is equally crucial for dominating on the mound. To excel, it's essential to fine-tune your pitching settings. Here's how you can optimize your setup for the best pitching performance in the game.

Best Settings for Pitching in MLB The Show 25

Unlike the myriad of options available for hitting, pitching settings in *MLB The Show 25* are straightforward yet impactful. Mastering these can mean the difference between a disastrous first inning and pitching a near-perfect game.

Pitching Interface

As with previous iterations of *MLB The Show*, the Pinpoint interface remains the top choice for pitching in *MLB The Show 25*. This setting gives you full control over pitch location by requiring you to trace specific lines for each type of pitch. Your accuracy depends on how well you draw these lines, making it a challenging yet rewarding option. While it might take time to master due to its strictness on errors, once you're accustomed to the different patterns, you'll find yourself consistently hitting the corners of the strike zone.

Other pitching settings in *MLB The Show 25* are less critical, so feel free to experiment with them. However, keeping the Pitching Ball Marker active is recommended to help maintain a clear view of your pitch's trajectory.

Pitching View

If you've explored The Escapist's guide on hitting settings, you'll recognize Strike Zone 2 as the optimal Hitting View. This view also excels for pitching, providing a close-up perspective of the batter that enhances pitch location accuracy. With minimal room for error, Strike Zone 2 allows you to target the spots that make hitters uncomfortable, giving you a strategic edge.

These are the recommended pitching settings for *MLB The Show 25* to help you dominate on the mound.
