What is the single (super minor) detail that annoys you the most?
-
- Foul ball delay before 'in game' again
- Having to wait for OF to throw ball back to infield, slowly, before next AB can begin (Offline)
- Constant drums at Oakland
- Constant organ at Milwaukee
- AI player holding ball when play is over acting as if he wants to throw back to pitcher only to mutter 'I have this baseball. Ima throw it to you.....in a sec. Hold on. Ima throw it. For realz. Ready? Ima throw it now.'
- Hitting into what feels like 10 double plays in a 9 inning game
- AI and their amazing abilities in the field - starring J.D. (Just Defense) Martinez

Since every Show I can ever remember playing:
The 1B covers second base on balls in the gap ALL the time. The 2B and SS both go out for the cut and all the sudden you got Big Papi or Vladdy JR straddling 2B taking the throw and nobody is covering 1B. When has this happened in real life?

All the time.if the balls deep enough for both to go as cutoff, you dont need 1st covered but there may be a play at 2nd.
Show me video then and I’ll agree. Til then, my middle IF should be taking the throw for the play at 2B

Dan Plesac and Mark DeRosa’s awful repetitive commentary.
Yep. Especially when it's not relevant to what's going on or the pitcher that's pitching, or drones on and on into the next batter or two.

Aiming the pitch low and away, getting a perfect pitch release, and wheeeeew....hanger up and in right in their wheel house. It's getting beyond stupid at this point.
Aiming the pitch low and away/in with a breaking pitch, hitting the pitchers' spot and the opponent still crushing a 450 hit homerun.

Taking away the ability to throw a runner out at first from short right, which has effectively made the fielder mostly never cover the base on plays like a loose ball in the dirt or a throw back in from the outfield when the runner strays.
I get making the change because it happened too often but if someone like Grandal hits a ball into short RF and I throw the ball in and beat him by 10 feet to the bag but can't get an out because the fielder doesn't actually cover the base.

This and the cutoff man taking the cut throw from the wrong side of second base. Like if a ball is hit in the CF gap and the runner is going to third, you'll hit the cutoff man and he's on the first base side of second, making for a terrible angle/longer throw to third. That and the deliberate animations sometimes that slow the throw and release down on a runner you should have a good shot of getting but they make it by a mile because the throw takes so long.

The temperatures in the game never make sense. June, July, August, wherever I play, it always seems to be "parka weather". I guess it's because I always put in overcast but just because there's cloud cover in the summer doesn't automatically make it winter like temperatures.

Having my wife mad at me for playing too much.
Having my neighbor mad at me for not wearing a mask while playing.
Having my kid get mad at me when he wants gas money and I try and pay him in stubs.
Having my dog mad at me because I renamed him Ohtani.HahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahA

Having runners dive back to the bag on obvious hits
This!!!!!!
-
Too many "doubles ruled a single" in moments. I understand the 'advanced on the throw' aspect but calls that are 50-50 by a real life official scorer always go against me.
-
Casually walking back to 3b when the pitcher throws out because he thinks runner on 1st is gonna steal yet he throws to 3b and hes out. That is the most annoying thing that's happened to me plus when I hit a clear double to centre field the runner casually slowed walked to 2nd only for the 1b man running over to cover second tagged him.

I’m used to god awful commentary during ball games too. Having to listen to Buck Martinez and Pat Tablet ramble on about their crappy careers during an entire inning is enough to make you want to cheer for another team.
-
The fact that some hits where the runner reaches second aren’t called 2 base hits by the game.
-
Slow tags! So annoying. Do a sweep tag! Have better tags at home plate
-
idk if this is considered minor, but the lack of rewards for "Good" swings. Every good swing seems like a noodle to me.
-
When I fail a mission and I have to wait for the play to finish before I can restart. Or I have to watch as my guy slowly walks back to the dugout before restart.
-
I find it slightly annoying when my 3rd baseman, and the runner on 3rd are playing tic-tac-toe they use very little strategy
-
The fact that for the first Pitch of an AB it shows the hitting stats of the last batter.
Fix it. Please.

I wish there was other languages. When I played fifa I use to have Spanish commentary only. It made it pretty cool tbh.

My personal pet peeve is guys like Whoa Tyler that chirp at everyone that points out obvious flaws in the game. Dude must own stock in SDS or be lobbying for some kind of preferred player status.
