'MLB The Show 22' is proof the pandemic rendered time meaningless
There are ample such updates between "The Show 21" to "The Show 22." San Diego Studios has added fielding to the game's custom practice mode. The plate coverage indicator (PCI) now shrinks when batters try to hit pitches thrown outside the strike zone to more realistically correspond to the real-life difficulty of hitting such pitches. Similarly, pitch types meant to be thrown in specific areas (such as sinkers or split finger fastballs, which are most effectively thrown at the bottom of the strike zone) have less accuracy when they're targeted in unrealistic spots. "PCI Anchors" now allow hitters to pin their focus (read: hitting cursor) if a pitcher seems to be emphasizing a particular part of the strike zone. There are new animations for fielding, and perfect throws from the outfield put the player receiving such throws in better position to make a tag.
