Check Internet Connection:
Ensure your internet connection is stable. Run a network test on your Xbox by going to "Settings," then "Network," and selecting "Test network connection." If issues are detected, reboot your router or contact your ISP for further assistance (Xbox Wire).
Reinstall the Game:
If the problem persists, try uninstalling and then reinstalling the game. This can help resolve any corrupted files that might be causing the issue (Xbox Wire).
Game Pass Subscription:
Verify that your Game Pass subscription is active and that you have the appropriate access to play MLB The Show 24. Sometimes, there can be account-related issues that affect your ability to play Game Pass titles (Microsoft Answers) (Xbox Wire).
