MLB The Show 21: How to Hit & Get Home Runs

Getting Home Runs Easier in MLB The Show 21

Recommended Videos

Home runs are, obviously, harder to get but there are some tricks to hit home runs easier in MLB The Show 21.

The simplest adjustment that you can make is to use the Square button on PlayStation or X on Xbox to power swing instead of X/A or Circle/B. What this does is reduce the contact of the player you’re using but it gives them a sharp boost in power.

This means you have to be even more on the nose as the PCI will be less forgiving to you, but if you’re skilled, you can take advantage of this to hit more home runs. If you mess up though, it’s more likely to lead to an easy pop fly than if you were to use X/A, so use it carefully.

In MLB The Show 21, you can use the Perfect/Perfect dots to try to line up powerful home run swings as well. Try to get the ball towards the upper dot for power hitters that have a large upper dot, and if you can do that with the right timing, you’ll have a very powerful swing that has the best possible angle towards a home run.

That’s all you need to know for how to hit and get home runs in MLB The Show 21. If you have more questions, leave them down below.
