I have seen way too many instances where the catcher is in "hyper-warp" reaction time on plays... most commonly when a batter hits a "dribbler". The catcher seems to go into "Benny Hill' speed and start double plays or throw out batters at first.
The most awkward of them all is when you hit the ball off of the very end of the bat and the catcher fields the ball by running it down from behind within the first five feet before the ball stops moving!!!
This would be similar to;
- having someone squat down next to you waiting for you to roll a ball underhand (we'll say at 20 mph)
- the person squatting, standing up first and then needs to run after the ball and grabs it almost immediately... This just is not supposed to be possible. (I know it's a video game but it seems as though this could be rectified.)
This has been an issue for most of the iterations of the show. I tried to globally fix it by turning EVERY catchers Reaction rating to "0" and didn't make any difference...
...Any thought from the fellow OS members?
