All-Star Ruth and SS Ruth were both not pitchers.
I think OP is talking about outside of DD. Like those pre-canned flashback teams and SDS rosters that only have him as a pitcher.
Ah, my bad. I always just sort topics by most recent, so I usually don’t even pay attention to the category.
Same here, dude. It's just easier for me that way.
OP has a good point though. They really should have both versions of the Babe available. He's famous for both. He was great at both. I get the frustration.

I wasn’t even aware that this is an issue. I agree then, both versions should be available. Besides, I feel like most people think hitter when they hear babe Ruth, not pitcher.

Are you kidding me? They didn't fix this after a year? The have to be aware?

Im sure they are aware but its like they dont care, i really hope they do something and add him again
-
Come on SDS dont let us wait another year, add the Babe back in as a Hitter and not just a pitcher please
-
Remember, and this is important. They dont care about franchise like you and I do. Just like last year and year before that and so on and so forth. It's a shame

I'm not at my PS4 right now, but I went through the roster last night and found that there were two Babe Ruths, and both are starting pitchers.

Can you designate either as a two way player?

Nope. You can't change existing players in the rosters into two-way players. The 99 Ruth does have OF/1B as (unchangeable) secondary positions, but his primary position can only be SP/RP/CP. The other Ruth is an 87 with no secondary positions.

Its especially ironic looking at all the menu screens of Babe holding a bat lol. What a concept!
Exactly, seriously SDS you guys need to fix this and give us the Babe as we know him.

So last year a lot of us complained all year round to the team of SDS about the fact thatwe only had Babe Ruth as a Pitcher and we got zero reply to it at all. Now a new year another game MLB The Show 20 and again we only get the Babe as a pitcher. Why SDS ? Why not alsomake him available as a position player we all know and love him for ?
They don't even give us the option to change his pos to OF. Just ridiculous!

There is an option to solve this... Start a franchise in MLB the Show 18, continue franchise in 19, then continue it in 20... Ruth the hitter will be there... Not sure how that will effect current stats on all other players, might be 18 stats, but it’s an option, you can always play a 2020 franchise as well separately with all current stats....

Me and a bunch of others submitted the feedback to the support if everyone does that maybe it gets more attention.

Just did the same. Hopefully its addressed.

I think I figured out a way around this. Change his position to CP and the game will automatically put him at DH in the everyday lineup. I simmed a few games with this setup and he was in the starting lineup as a hitter in every one of them.
