    Pitchers not covering first

    I just started playing a season and I am using auto fielding. I am having an issue where on long drawn out plays my pitchers aren't getting to first to cover.
    They have all day to get over there and when the runner crosses first they are still 10 feet from first base. Anybody else seeing this? So far I have only seen it happening to my team. My opponents don't seem to be having this issue.

    Have you tried benching them? That should teach them a lesson...

      I have had it happen 4 times in seven games! I wouldn't have any starters left!

        I use assisted fielding, not auto, but I've had some issues too. Not to your degree though. There seem to be cases when a ball is hit slowly, and "just wrong" to the second base side, where the 1st baseman runs to it but the pitcher doesn't seem to realize that he needs to cover the bag. I've had cases where he's not just slow, he never moves in that direction at all.
        Anyone who claims to be a fan of two teams in the same pro sport is actually a fan of none.
