How to customize Batting Stance in MLB The Show 24

There are many options to adjust and customize when building your individual batting stance. However, we don't recommend doing this early in the game; it's better to explore your preferred batting style and then adjust your player accordingly.

Once you find out what kind of swing you prefer, there are various options to set to finalize your perfect style:

  • Hand Offset X - The lower value improves your late swing, and the higher value improves your early swing.
  • Hand Offset Y - Helps with low and high pitches.
  • Hand Offset Z - The lower value is for outside pitches, and the higher is for inside ones.
  • Hand Rotation and Hand Waggle Rotation - Raise the value for higher pitches and lower for lower pitches.
  • Back Elbow Offset - Lower values for contact swings and higher for power swings.
  • Front Elbow Offset - Raise the value for higher pitches and lower for lower pitches.
  • Hips Offset X - Higher value for high pitches, lower value for low pitches.
  • Hips Offset Y - This one works the opposite, with lower values for high pitches and tighter values for high pitches.
  • Hips Offset Z - Lower values for inside pitches, higher values for outside pitches.
  • Forward Foot Offset Z - Raise to push hits more often, lower to pull hits.
  • Forward Foot Offset X - Lower to improve contact on late swings, raise to improve contact on early swings
