MLB The Show 23 has been out for almost two weeks now. Overall, fan reception seems relatively positive so far. Players have enjoyed the gameplay changes as well as new features to Franchise and Diamond Dynasty. There have, however, been a few issues with the title. SDS will address these issues Friday with a Title Update.

This seems to be an update focused on fixing some bugs from the release. Some of these include the scoreboard at Citi Field being much too large, two-way players being both pitchers and position players simultaneously, and pitches “jumping” far from their intended location. There are also some UI updates, such as removing the blur when setting prices in the marketplace and improving speeds in Conquest.
