The rundowns is another good one. You start to try to hold on to the ball until the last second because of the ability for the runner to turn around quickly, but it ends up hurting you a lot of the time.

also look at pitch outs on steals and how runner can stop on a dime and retreat to original base, I have never seen a base stealer doing this in a game

really great vid Chase!!! I'd love for the devs to develop a new mechanic for bunting that incorporates a PCI.

Yeah this is another good one. I don't think you should not be allowed to go back at all because there's still a chance you accidentally pressed the steal button. That being said, you more or less know you're going to be able to swipe the bag based on your jump. So if a pitch out or a bad jump occurs you can generally react quick enough to run back if the catcher throws to second, so it's not really fair to the defense.

Thanks for the feedback! I originally thought about just doing the video purely on steals and bunts because they really are the two biggest issues, but felt it might get a bit boring detailing each of the scenarios/reasons why both are unbalanced online.

There is an exploit/bug related to the stop animation. It allows the runner to change directions much too quickly. This happens offline as well and will be addressed. Thanks again for all the feedback.

Thanks for contributing here. It does mean a good bit when a developer openly interacts about these very frustrating things.

Another thing that is frustrating is when there's a chopper at the plate. The catcher just springs right up and won't go after the ball until the stand-up animation is complete. Causes a lot of singles that shouldn't be.

Yeah, there are a couple examples of that in the video Enigma, so I assume he was/is aware of that one as well.

Excellent Chase.

You basically got every single problem I have with The Show in one video. EVERY SINGLE ONE.

That bunting animation people do while you're pitching or the perfect bunts is the most infuriating one.

Not to mention the delay animations.

Hopefully the MLB The Show devs are playing really close attention to this video,

Sort this out guys. The online would be nearly perfect if you can sort the stuff in the video out.
