Best Settings for Pitching in MLB The Show 25

Unlike the myriad of options available for hitting, pitching settings are simpler but no less important. Mastering these few settings can mean the difference between a disastrous first inning and maintaining a no-hitter into the seventh.

Pitching Interface

As with previous *MLB The Show* titles, Pinpoint remains the top choice for pitching interface in *MLB The Show 25*. This setting gives you full control over where the ball goes, requiring you to draw specific lines for each pitch. The accuracy of your pitch depends on how well you draw these lines.

This camera angle provides an up-close view of the batter, making it easier to pinpoint your pitches. With minimal room for error, Strike Zone 2 helps you target those spots that make hitters uncomfortable, leveraging your familiarity from using it while batting.

These are the optimal pitching settings to use in *MLB The Show 25* to enhance your performance on the mound.
