Baseball fans, rejoice! The latest patch, version 1.04, has landed for MLB The Show 24, the beloved baseball simulation game released by San Diego Studio on March 19. This update is packed with bug fixes and notable additions like the Philadelphia Phillies City Connect jerseys.

The excitement surrounding the launch of MLB The Show 24 was quickly overshadowed by post-release bugs, a common challenge in gaming. Players, especially those on the Switch platform, faced frustrating game crashes shortly after the release, particularly in the popular Diamond Dynasty mode.

On April 6, a comprehensive update rolled out for MLB The Show 24, targeting bug fixes and improvements across various game modes. Noteworthy enhancements include the addition of Philadelphia Phillies City Connect jerseys, resolution of freezing issues in head-to-head and co-op modes, font adjustments for better legibility, and a temporary disablement of the batter's time call in online games to investigate freeze-causing issues. The Diamond Dynasty mode saw a fix for a crash during team drafting in Battle Royale mode.

Player lock cameras in MLB The Show 24's Road To The Show mode have been enhanced, while Franchise mode received fixes and added information for the Prospective Promotion Incentive (PPI) screen. March to October mode addressed a visual bug, and Storylines mode underwent presentation updates and bug fixes. This patch underscores the developers' commitment to enhancing user experience and resolving issues promptly.

Noteworthy is the adjustment made to San Diego Padres pitcher Matt Waldron in a previous update. Players struggled against Waldron in-game, prompting developers to increase the knuckleball's velocity and reduce its curve slightly for improved gameplay balance.
