We NEED to fix getting thrown out at 2nd vs CPU
-
@icebergslim7669_PSN This is so true.
-
The best is that the same outfielder who will drop a routine pop fly will also gun a guy out at second on a should-have-been-a-double down the line.
-
Got gunned out at first on a would be single to right field with Bobby Witt running, i know this happens in real baseball, but Bobby Witt is a 96 speed and it wasn’t a ball that was hit very hard to the Right fielder either.
-
@icebergslim7669_PSN how did this happen..the fielders don't cover first on hits to the outfield
-
@Stinkysman77_MLBTS yeah i didn’t think it was even possible anymore, haven’t seen it since maybe mlbts 23 i think.
-
I’m thinking he’s saying the 2B chased down a grounder into the deeper portion of shallow RF and threw him out…which unfortunately has happened to me as well. But hasn’t from the right fielder themselves in a few years

No it was a soft liner that dropped right in front of the right fielder, in an event game.
-
@Sarge1387_PSN hr clearly says it was hit to the right fielder
-
@icebergslim7669_PSN yeah..no one covers first so how did that happen?
-
Yes I almost threw out a slow runner at first with Judge. Was a pleasant surprise to see Polanco covering to give me the opportunity. Hadn’t seen this in a couple years. I was playing WBC Puerto Rico stadium.
-
No clue, a few years ago you could throw out runners from the outfield, but i know in the last couple of installments when you attempt to throw someone out , the first baseman is never at the bag.That’s why i was so surprised when it happened.
-
Yeah a few years ago I would only pull it off in custom stadiums. Throw out slow runner at first if hit right to outfielder. So it’s nice to have an attempt again. And I almost had one other day he just beat it out by half a step. Can’t wait to try again
-
Also think has something to do with the hitters speed determines if 1B covers. A few years ago it was a slow Rockies 1B that I got a couple times.
-
@kingdutch_PSN Yes. It does not seem that card ratings are taken into account when the computer is on defense. The CPU also turns a DP on 95% of balls on the infield regardless of how the ball it hit. For a "sim", there is almost no realism to how the CPU plays defense.
And then the big elephant in the room for the CPU...Pitching...98% balls or dots...again regardless of pitcher's rating.
-
@icebergslim7669_PSN they made ot so the first baseman doesn't cover because they couldn't figure out how to prevent players being thrown out at first on balls hit to right field.
-
-
Yeah I never had it happen once last year and had chances if 1B would have covered. But multiple throw outs year before so I guess it’s back.
-
@icebergslim7669_PSN Good point. I also feel like they round 1b way to far. Its like three or four extra steps.
