If you want the most potential control over each pitch, nothing compares to being adept at Pinpoint Pitching. Unfortunately, if you&#8217;re not good at the Pinpoint Pitching gesture motions then it&#8217;ll be far more detrimental than beneficial.<\/p>\n<p>Meter, Pure Analog, and Pulse are all about evenly matched when it comes to control and accuracy once you&#8217;re good at the timing of each interface. They&#8217;re not quite at the Pinpoint Pitching tier, but you&#8217;re better off being good at one of these than bombing when you attemp Pinpoint as an interface. Lastly, players can choose Classic for the easiest experience, but your accuracy can vary widely based on pitcher attributes.<\/p>\n<p>While the motion and pitch controls will depend on your interface selection, here are the MLB The Show 24 pitching controls everyone will need to know:<\/p>\n<table style=\"table-layout: fixed;

The ShowTM 24 Xbox Series X S 2024-03-15 04-55-56\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/p>\n<p>When it comes to throwing the ball and overall fielding, there are several MLB The Show 24 controls for players to take into account. While the simpler Buttons and Analog interfaces work fine for those who need them, Button Accuracy is the better choice for those who want a higher chance of triggering more advanced (and sometimes faster) throwing animations.<\/p>\n<p>Here are all the MLB The Show 24 fielding and throwing controls players need to know, with these being specific to Button and Button Accuracy interfaces:<\/p>\n<table style=\"table-layout: fixed; width: 100%; max-width: 100%; height: 216px;\" border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 32.267%; height: 24px; text-align: left;\"><strong>Action<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 31.16%; height: 24px; text-align: left;\"><strong>Xbox Controls<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.573%; height: 24px; text-align: left;\"><strong>PlayStation Controls<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 32.267%; height: 24px;\"><strong>Throw to 1st<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 31.16%; height: 24px;\">Press B<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.573%; height: 24px;\">Press Circle<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 32.267%; height: 24px;\"><strong>Throw to 2nd <\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 31.16%; height: 24px;\">Press Y<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.573%; height: 24px;\">Press Triangle<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 32.267%; height: 24px;\"><strong>Throw to 3rd<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 31.16%; height: 24px;\">Press X<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.573%; height: 24px;\">Press Square<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 32.267%; height: 24px;\"><strong>Throw Home<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 31.16%; height: 24px;\">Press A<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.573%; height: 24px;\">Press X<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 32.267%;\"><strong>Throw to Cutoff<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 31.16%;\">Press LB<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.573%;\">Press L1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 32.267%; height: 24px;\"><strong>Jump<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 31.16%; height: 24px;\">Press RB<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.573%; height: 24px;\">Press R1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 32.267%; height: 24px;\"><strong>Dive<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 31.16%; height: 24px;\">Press RT<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.573%; height: 24px;\">Press RT<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 24px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 32.267%; height: 24px;\"><strong>Switch to Closest Player<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 31.16%; height: 24px;\">Press LT<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 36.573%; height: 24px;\">Press L2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>If you prefer to let the CPU make a decision between whether jumping or diving at a ball is the better choice, go into Control Settings under Defense and switch Dive\/Jump to One Button.
