Why Do I Keep Popping Up in MLB The Show?
It's all about timing! Try waiting a split second longer before you swing, and you'll see those pop-ups turn into line drives.

It's probably your swing trajectory. Try focusing on hitting more line drives or ground balls by adjusting your swing direction.
Make sure you're not swinging under the ball. Keep the PCI (Plate Coverage Indicator) more centered to avoid those pop-ups.
LOL, maybe your player's allergic to hitting home runs? Nah, just kidding. Seriously though, adjust your batting stance to generate less loft.
