    Can someone help me figure out why my base runner goes back to the base they were coming from if I steal with them and a ball is out in play. Even a clean line drive they are going back to the base automatically then I have to restart them and it’s costing me alot of outs. Do I have a setting on I shouldn’t? Thought I had it the same as previous years and this never happened to me…. Anyone else?

    Thanks for the help

    You probably have autobaserunning on, that setting actually sucks so much. I experienced the same thing and for whatever reason couldn't toggle it off. But it's off for me in 26 thankfully.

    Yep. I usually use auto running on - because it’s one you can change or press buttons to change the runners mid ball flight. If auto baserunning is on if you attempt to steal a base, then send your runners back on a fly ball - the runners will immediately try to take the base even if the shortstop is in front of them. 100% of the time.

    Why is the AI so much better for mini-seasons or showdown teams?

    AI sucks horribly if you use it for your own team.

    So I checked and I don’t have auto baserunning on, I’m running analog select interface , then directional analog , auto baserunning off, auto sliding off. Anyone know what I can do

    Best I can guess is you tried to steal a base / this game has so many glitches you can’t count them all - but your runners will just try to take the base you tried to steal even after tag-ups

    Been like this for years welcome to the Show

    You have to always make sure online or offline if you attempted a steal, and set your controller down thinking all was well when they you’ve returned to base - the runners will just go and try to go back to their regularly scheduled programming

    And online player knows this and will gun you out because you took a breath for a sec

    This has been going on for several years now and they will not even respond to it. A hit and run is almost impossible now because the runner on base goes back to the previous base. It is a joke and has cost me many games.

    My favorite is I’ve had it happen multiple times. Tag the runner at 3rd the runner at 1st just stops 3 feet from the bag and stands there
