I came across this when searching for an answer yesterday, so once i found the solution I wanted to put it out there for future searchers. Currently (hopefully this changes in the future), it appears that the mlb app doesn't recognize special characters, at least not all of them. So if you're password has a special character, its probably one the app doesn't recognize (tho the website does?), so changing your password may be whats needed. On the mlb page i found where it says they want at least 1 upper, 1 lower, 1 number and 0 special characters. (I mean, it is 2024 right, you'd think they'd accept them?)
