    Reset Defense Positioning

    Does this actually work? I cannot get anyone to change their position on Defense, Franchise Mode

    Because of what I personally think is a bit of a bug in mlb14, namely too many pick offs at first base, I would like to minimize it at least when I am on the field, by telling the 1st baseman to NOT hold the runner on, go to Normal, or Double Play whatever.

    I do that, he moves in the dialogue box, but no matter what I do after that, when I go back to the game, he is still holding on the runner.

    I hit the square, it has choices I don't really understand, but none of them change him, Reset to Saved Settings, Reset to Default, Reset All to Default, maybe one more. None of them work, he is always back to holding the runner on when I go back to the game.

    If it is possible to tell the 1st baseman to not hold on the runner, could somebody explain how to me. I have tried a hundred times, I just don't get it. Whether I choose all batters, the specific batter who is up or whatever, it never works.

    I'd appreciate any help. I think this is a bug and don't understand why they don't fix it. I see 3-4-5 pickoffs at first in a game, not at all realistic. The runners are taking too long a lead. I am in Player Lock, so cannot tell them to decrease their lead, but I doubt that would help, and reset defense doesn't work in non player lock for me either. And it happens to my team, as well as the AI team. Something just isn't right.

    Can anyone help getting the first baseman not to hold the runner? Thanks.

    Defensive positioning is broken. I once shared your problem and now if I want to make one simple change throughout the game then I have to make every singe one after including if the computer steals second I have to get my defense out of double play as well as stop the 1b from holding first!

      Well it at least sounds like you are able to do something I cannot figure out, namely making a change and having it stick when I return to the game.

      Can you tell me what steps you would take to tell the 1st baseman to NOT hold the runner on? No matter what I do, when I go back, hes still holding him on. At least it sounds like you can make a change and have it stick. For me, I want it to be permanent through the game, that my 1st baseman does not hold the runner, simply due to too many pick offs.

      Thanks for the reply
