Make the 1st baseman cover 1st on outfield hits?

I’ve heard stories of before where like people would get thrown out constantly. Tbh I don’t mind it that much and considering there’s a lot of other points to work on I can live with this. The cutoffs from right are brutal the first baseman is too deep and throws arch in for instance,

'Snap throw.'

I think they coded it out. I was playing with my son on a xp grind field for fun and a shot was hit to RF, I gunned it to first and replay shows he was about by almost 2 steps but they called him safe.

Glad they took it away. Anyone with under 30/35 speed used to be useless.

In past games you could gun out people from right field a few times a game. Not realistic. Glad they toned it down.
It is realistic. It happens in real MLB games. Just do a Google search and watch those videos

Once every few games, the opposing team will hit the ball to shallow right field, and I'm able to get the ball in quicker than the baserunner can get to first base. However, the first baseman never actually covers first base. This might be a minor thing, but it does cost me an out ever few games.
Anyone know a way to fix this?
Years ago this was an exploit. It was really bad. You could get 3-4 outs per game by throwing to first from right field. Very unrealistic. I’m glad it’s coded this way now. People still try though and I laugh every time lol
I loved throwing to first against the CPU from Left and watching them make the turn to go to second! LOL

Absolutely not. This trash was in the game a few years ago.

What he meant by not realistic is "few times a game". It's a rare play.

Maybe they should make the fielders slower and the runners a bit quicker, it's not like we haven't told then this before

I actually think the fielders are way too nonchalant. I think that could take some tuning to improve urgency.

Situational, see balls that should never get caught get caught and simple plays a 3rd grader could make they mess it up
