| Pinpoint |
Consistent with previous *MLB The Show* titles, Pinpoint remains the top choice for pitching interface in *MLB The Show 25*. This setting lets you take full control over where the ball goes by drawing specific lines for each pitch. The accuracy of your pitch depends on how well you draw these lines. While mastering Pinpoint can be challenging due to its strictness on errors, once you get the hang of it, pitching precisely becomes second nature. Feel free to experiment with other pitching settings, but keeping the Pitching Ball Marker on is advisable to maintain focus on pitch location.

Familiarity with this view from hitting can help you identify spots that make hitters uncomfortable, enhancing your pitching strategy.
These are the optimal pitching settings for *MLB The Show 25* that can help you dominate on the mound.
