Modify Catcher Tag Animations
-
I feel like catchers tagging people out at home could be improved. Most of the time when you throw from RF or CF, the catcher will catch the ball in front of him and then turn to try and tag the runner. I think it would be more accurate if at times the catcher does a smooth tag like a player would when you throw to 2nd for a steal. It's like the equivalent of the 2B standing a foot in front of 2nd base, catching the ball and then turning his whole body to tag the runner on a steal.

It's on purpose. They get better animations on perfect throws from the outfield

I think what i'm getting at is they could try turning the catcher's body so that their side is more facing the outfielder rather than them facing the outfielder straight on. Like they would face the shortstop if the throw is coming from right field with the catcher's glove on his left hand. Or just stand more behind the plate instead of in front.
