MLB 10: The Show Getting Patch Tomorrow
by 
SCEA has announced that a second patch for MLB 10: The Show will be released tomorrow. It includes fixes intended to address some of the issues pointed out by the community including ones experienced in franchise mode and intentional walks causing freezes online.
While we won’t know if this patch was quickly created in response to some of the backlash that came after stating work wouldn’t start on it until the end of the month, all that matters is that it is being delivered in a timely fashion and everyone should be pleased with that. Continue on to view the changes arriving in the patch and leave your thoughts in the comments!

lol if theres one thing no one can accuse you of its overmoderating comments. i love that we have the freedom to speak our mind in the comments even though some people go overboard.
March 18, 2010 at 1:24 am
There are a lot of dumb people on this site, but Randy aka George aka Trufseeker aka trex has got to be the dumbest person to ever comment here.
Lol that is quite an accomplishment.
March 18, 2010 at 1:30 am
Pasta, what is your gamertag
March 18, 2010 at 1:37 am
BAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH
Where is your shepherd at? You better get back to safety over at OS where they lick every programmers balls.
haha loser
March 18, 2010 at 1:39 am
I have the same name across the board…both my Gamertag and PSN name is pastapadre
March 18, 2010 at 1:45 am
I tried that, but it said your friends list is full.
March 18, 2010 at 1:50 am
Create the best baseball sim ever and maybe someone will hang on your ballsacks… I hope you get killed by a drunk driver..
March 18, 2010 at 1:53 am
Your post wasnt deleted you douchey faggot.. This aint OS sports aka Nazi Germany where you will get banned if you even mention 2k sports.
Randy has to be one of the dumbest posters Ive ever read on the internet.. U suck at life
March 18, 2010 at 1:56 am
Thank gog for this site.. Where ppl can actually write the truth .. unlike both OS Sports and 2k forums where most of those mods must have been living in Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union at some point..
OS sports is a joke .. Pasta is the truth .. long live 2k mediocrity
March 18, 2010 at 2:25 am
lol @ your “backlash” having anything to do with it.
Only thing your bitching and whining ever accomplished was having Ian Cumming and those queers at EA change online speed from normal, which was perfect, to slow. Face it Pasta, your opinions and gaming views are complete and utter shit.
Continue to suck the man meat of all the gaming developers in hope that some day you will be relevant to the community. Until then, shut the fuck up!
Thank you.

Best news I've heard all day! I was under the assumption this patch wouldn't go live until April.
Can't wait for tomorrow!
March 18, 2010 at 2:49 am
Next time I get on Ill free up a few spots.
March 18, 2010 at 3:08 am
Do you know if they will be adding Jason Heyward to the next roster update pasta?
March 18, 2010 at 3:15 am
2k fags need to leave this page. Nice work SCEA on getting the patch out.
March 18, 2010 at 4:23 am
He won't be on any update until he plays 1 MLB game. If he makes the roster out of ST, then he should be on the April release. If you can't wait, look for the osubeaves1.2 roster. It's (in my opinion) the best realistic roster until Knights comes out around opening day.
March 18, 2010 at 11:01 am
Did they fix the freaking catch region indicator? It keeps displaying the indicator when its turned off under settings.
March 18, 2010 at 11:56 am
What is the Knights roster?
March 18, 2010 at 12:57 pm
Damn and you a straight up bitch.
March 18, 2010 at 1:04 pm
I'll never understand the fucking losers who come here talking shit. He clearly states that this might be in response to some of the backlash they company has received. Where the fuck does he say “due to my site”. you fucking high school kids need to learn to read.
March 18, 2010 at 1:20 pm
Will we have to restart our Franchise/RTTS for these changes to take place?
March 18, 2010 at 1:36 pm
Patch is now available and will not have to restart the team has stated
March 18, 2010 at 2:11 pm
1) will they ever remove Guess Pitch from ranked games? Very annoying!
2) will they ever romove your opponents pitch meter from view??
3) will they address the quick pitch to avoid stealing issues???
4) is it even possible for them to add the “pitcher's view” for online play this year?!?!?!?
March 18, 2010 at 3:08 pm
further proof these video game companies are some lazy, bold face liars.
March 18, 2010 at 3:35 pm
Does anyone know how big this patch is? Is it another massive update (343 MB) like the last one?
March 18, 2010 at 4:34 pm
Google “Knights roster”. It's a full minors set he makes each year. Every prospect/minor leaguer.
March 18, 2010 at 6:22 pm
How come they dont patch the Bunt Glitch where if the ball is bunted down the third base line that the batter is always safe.. 99.99% of the time.. Also are they going to fix the throwing glitch.. Why does it take so long for the fielder to throw the ball?
March 18, 2010 at 6:25 pm
They still haven't addressed the issue with power vs. LHP! I know it doesn't effect the game, but it's useful to know whether or not the guy I'm facing can hit dingers
March 18, 2010 at 7:32 pm
they still didnt fix my very simple issue of Brandon Wood being called Drew when he catches a ball. this game is a fricken joke, anyone who says otherwise is a PS3/Sony fanboy. i wanted to love this game, instead i loathe it.
March 18, 2010 at 7:38 pm
Your absolutely right brother. Video game companies dont release these games finished because they have to meet a deadline. then they send out patches claiming to fix the problems they didnt have time to work on before the release. I am one customer who is very upset at how these games like MLB 10 the show and Heavy Rain(both made by sony) have so many glitches and issues. the PS3 is already out dated if you compare it to the PC gaming market. infact console gaming is feels like its gunna die with games and systems like this. MLB the JOKE not MLB the SHOW
March 18, 2010 at 7:42 pm
MLB THE JOKE, not MLB THE SHOW. i felt ripped off the day i put this game in my console. what a joke of an MLB game. glitchy, inaccurate, and a bore. why in the hell do i need to memorize signs? just tell me if i should hit and run or straight steal or whatever, but giving me signs to make it more realistic is just stupid. make my system spitt out cotton candy while your @ it Sony. or how about some beer and peanuts. SONY staff = Fricken idiots.
March 18, 2010 at 8:49 pm
No doubt. At PNC Park (Pittsburgh) if you hit a gapper to the notch in left center the left fielder stops ten feet in front of the ball and strokes out while the center fielder seizures on the bullpen door and the ball just sits there. You have to take the inside the parker or it will just sit there. Played two franchise games and it happened twice. What a joke. I don't think they even test these games anymore. We pay them $60 to test this garbage for them. And yes, franchise HAS been unplayable since it came out if you want anything remotely close to real baseball. Seriously, it trades superstars for garbage and the lineups are all jacked up unless you control EVERY team, and sometimes it still does it. And before you fanboys start your posts I AM online and already loaded 2nd patch v. 1.08 so don't even try that. Also I've played 3 online games and 2 said wait for traffic and froze and 1 didn't record any stats. So don't try and say they only make it for online anymore cause that is garbage too.
March 18, 2010 at 8:57 pm
My internet speed is impeccable also. And if your gonna say it was the other guys internet then why wouldn't they put people with fast connections together and let those other idiots with slow connections play together. Why do I have to suffer with lagging gameplay, d/c's, freezes, etc.
March 18, 2010 at 10:51 pm
Had to comment on this one…
Anyone who claims the console market is going to die in comparison to an already dead PC market is an absolute joke. Feel free to jump back into reality when you get a chance. And, by the way, PC games have patches too. In fact, they ALL do!
Sports games that release every year only have less than a year for their development cycle, so they have far less time to test etc… Just be glad they're willing to patch it at all. And be glad the technology is their to do so, because back in the day (just a few year ago) patches weren't even available to console gamers.
March 18, 2010 at 11:46 pm
You idiots are a joke.
They fixed the lefty power display and the ball marker bugs.
March 19, 2010 at 12:10 am
I'll never understand why people kiss Pasta's ass. I mean doesn't he do enough ass kissing for all of us?
This guy has no credibility within the industry. He's made a living off of literally, getting on his keyboard and sucking the dick of all the developers that step in his way.
When he grows a pair and stands up to that irrelevant P.O.S over at EA that has done nothing but hype Madden up for the last two years only to put the same shitty product out, then we'll talk.
Until then fuck yourself Pasta. FUCK YOUR SELF!
March 19, 2010 at 12:49 am
Yep.
Blind leading the blind on here.
March 19, 2010 at 1:09 am
Because he is a sensational twat that posts stories to get hits, rather than facts or truths.
Then when he had ample time to eat crow, he tried to spin it again.
Fucking geniuses think they can muster a patch and get it certified all in a weeks time since the Pasta story have large heads, and little man syndromes. And have absolutely no clue how the industry works.
But keep fighting your good fight, and sticking up for bias and sensationalism, and I will gladly eat crow when I see the same slander articles for the patches from the two EA games that take months to get out as well.
March 19, 2010 at 6:29 am
Hey Pasta, Will the patch go into affect on our already in progress franchises or do we have to start over?
March 19, 2010 at 6:32 am
preach brother preach
this man speaks the truth
March 19, 2010 at 5:40 pm
My RTTS got stuck in august, I can't get past August 5th. Is there a fix for that? Or should I just delete it?
March 20, 2010 at 4:51 am
funny that i played on the franchise mode after the update(patch), for the first time, second inning, Nelson Cruz of the Texas Rangers hit a HR a towering one (462ft), and up on top it says it was his first career HR, even the broadcaster Vargesian announced it that it was his first, then Justin Smoak a rookie followed it with a HR himself and it never flashes that it was his first career HR, nor it was announced…..but hey no big deal here…..still thanks SCEA for shortening their vacation time to fix stuff for us loyal fans of the Show….
March 20, 2010 at 5:02 am
and when the run bases, the numbers doesn't show….WTF? turning a double play is a joke… i pre-loaded my throws but the shortstop 9 out of 10 times lob the ball…then the 3rd baseman double clutch it always……
March 20, 2010 at 10:31 am
Downloaded the patch. Especially relieved to see:
1. I can now execute a double-switch
2. CPU player trade is limited to once per season
Both were hella-annoying and forced me to stop playing. K-Rod was traded at least six times in the 2010 season the first time I tried the new Franchise Mode. They still have quite a few issues to address. The Hot Zone colors in the Pitcher/Batter Status Window are still so muted, they are barely visible. The same goes for the colors that differentiate pitch-type in the Pitch History Window. These should be easy and quick fixes for such an advanced development team. Don't know why they haven't happened yet.
March 20, 2010 at 12:44 pm
So far, I'm very happy with the patch, kudos to the folks over at SCEA!
March 20, 2010 at 4:42 pm
What about double switches and player potential?
April 4, 2010 at 9:00 pm
does anyone know how to delete a created player???
April 4, 2010 at 9:53 pm
Hey Paste, when is the next roster update coming? The current rosters, doesn't have Jason Heyward and the minor leagues are all screwed up.
May 6, 2010 at 11:44 pm
I've noticed an issue with a runner on third base. When the pitcher steps off the runner starts heading for home. If you try to call him back he will go thrown out and he will get thrown out to home plate as well. The runner should freeze or return to third since he isn't being held by the thirdbaseman
June 14, 2010 at 11:23 pm
I just picked up a copy of the show 10 i can hear all aspects of the games audio, except the broadcasters….i have tried to change the audio options and still have no luck. please suggestions would be awesome.
