This was the top of the fifth inning . . . you had five more innings at bat to score one run to tie and two to win. Come on, a one run lead is definitely not insurmountable, so why blame your loss on one play? Sure, it's frustrating, but it sounds like you let that get to you the rest of the game. And yeah, why throw something way outside to Sheffield? Perhaps you were afraid he was actually going to get a hit with two strikes to take the lead.
Also, maybe examine your CAP's defense at catcher. When I put guys like Carlos Santana or Gary Sanchez behind the plate, it just doesn't compare to Posey's superb blocking abilities for stuff in the dirt. Some people really sleep on defense ratings on certain positions like C or 1B that don't get the ball hit to them in high frequency.
Maybe switch to pure analog instead of meter pitching for increased levels of user input. It's worth trying at least if you haven't already . . .
About spending money on the game, that probably makes you invest more time and effort than you otherwise would. I know a lot of people do it, but spending $1,500 to get Mantle, Sheffield, and Biggio doesn't automatically increase your chances of winning in this game. Plenty of free cards out there who rake (i.e. POTMs, future stars, TAs). So maybe you wouldn't feel this let down if all you did was spend $60 upfront, but no one's stopping you from buying stubs in-game. Try giving it a rest for a day or two and think it over, that might help you see the bigger picture of issues like this a bit more.
But seriously, this forum has turned into a cesspool for players complaining about in-game issues and frustrations. One might wonder if that's the primary focus of users discussing MLB the Show 20 on this forum. It's a simulation video game; no one expects it to be a perfect experience, much less to win every game. If you don't like it, no one's forcing you to keep playing. Maybe the card drops throughout the year, including collections and new pack releases have sucked you in to spending tons of cash every year. Hey, it's making a profit for SDS. There's plenty of other things to do now and in the next few months, find something you actually enjoy I guess.
So just accept the problems in the game instead of sharing them in hopes of them getting addressed for a better gaming experience?

No . . . there's always going to be issues with gameplay, it's not a perfect system. All you complainers should find something else to do instead of spending all day playing a game you don't actually enjoy playing. Isn't that a bit counterintuitive?

Wah wah wah "why do you steal from kids?" Wah wah wah
How bout you find a legit way to defend this instead of acting like that. You know like, acting like an adult like you suggested to another member.
There is nothing to defend...he threw a ball in the dirt and a runner scored.
Did you not see the pitcher put down a tag with the runners arm still in the batters box?
He missed the tag, happens in real life all the time. What is the pitchers defensive stats? Was there lag? Is there latency issues?
You guys and your “It happens in real life” excuse. It’s no wonder why this game plays like this ever year. Why would SDS make anything better when they have the fanboys patrolling these sites and downplaying any issue a player brings up?
Better than people who whine and cry about RNG all the time. Funny how you never addressed my other points

Yeah, they wouldn't actually have to worry about RNG so much if they actually hit the virtual ball well consistently by getting good PCI placements. It really is a skill-based game despite what some around here would say.

Imagine if nobody complained about souvenirs in 18 or the slow pitch speeds or the terrible hitting or how you could immediately return to first on a steal attempt safely. Imagine if nobody complained about how bad the fielding was (including real MLB players) earlier this year. Bunt cheese from a few years ago, slow menu speeds, online requirements for Griffey etc etc. Think about how much has been improved in part to the complainers. If we all just downplayed everything this game could be a lot worse. Just something to keep in mind when you want to talk about complainers.

@baseballfan2446 are you slow? it was BR so I didn't have 5 innnings to come back. Hence, I want my 1500 back. Holy [censored] dude wow

I don't care what game mode it is honestly. For all that I know, you could've quit after that play in the fifth inning of a ranked seasons game. Go ahead and quit the game, why make a huge spectacle out of it? Threads like this deflect from actual content discussions. That's a big reason why I think there should be a new forum for complainers. And don't think I'm just making excuses for the game, I'd be criticizing actual issues I perceive more if people were underreporting them.

So not to cause too much of an issue cause yes the game does have its flaws but I think that actually might have been on you not the animation. I think you told him to run up the 3b line right before the tag so he tucked his glove in to run and missed the tag. Yes he still should of tagged him but why have him run up the line when you had him dead to rights?

@baseballfan2446 dude holy [censored] you are dumb. You just asked me why I would throw a pitch way out of the strike zone with an 0-2 count against one of the best hitters in the game. Do you ever watch baseball? Sure I'll give him a [censored] high sinker and see how that one goes next time. It's my fault I'm just terrible at the game.
Do you even watch baseball? Why intentionally throw a pitch in the dirt when you know your catcher sucks? There's plenty of ways to get Sheffield out without throwing a wild pitch if you actually bother to think about it lol.

@CCCStunna30 I just have nothing left to say to you people. He was locked on. Once they're locked on for the tag, and the ball is in the glove, the tag should be made.

@baseballfan2446 TRUE! You're totally right. I forgot MLB hitters never chase balls in the dirt. EDUCATE YOURSELF. YOU KNOW NOTHING. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLQe6HUgvaw
-
@jhaberle not saying the tag in reality shouldn’t of been made, I’ve never tried it but I’m assuming if you lock in on a fly ball then yank the stick to move him out of the lock in he wouldn’t catch it

@baseballfan2446 It's almost like that first strikeout in the video was the exact location I wanted the pitch!

You're blowing everything out of proportion here. Including my words (i.e. you're interpreting them as way more black and white than they were intended).
