Runners have to be able to score from 2nd on a base hit to RF SOMETIMES!!!!

This is beyond ridiculous. Every single time I have a hit to RF and a runner on 2nd I am getting thrown out at home. We are talking about guys with 85+ speed. This has got to be fixed.

Well, it can be fixed by simply stopping at 3rd base..

Is that realistic? When you are watching an MLB game does a runner on second get thrown out if he doesnt stop at 3rd every single time?

Maybe try lowering "fielder arm strength outfield" in the sliders menu?

Unfortunately that doesnt work either, because it makes all throws too weak then you can never throw anyone out. I did some extensive testing with Puig to get the correct slider position to match up with arm strength rating. Its not guys like him Im getting thrown out with either, its scrubs in the minors.

This is true. Unfortunately, from my amateur perspective, it seems the outfield size-scale compared with arm strength leads to this problem. I agree, runners on 2nd with a 65+ speed should be able to score often. Not every time, but often.

This has also happened to me with hits to CF

Another part of this is that outfielders charge the ball full speed all the way through fielding it; they don't have to break down at all. So they get to the ball faster and have a shorter throw than in real life.
