Help!? Catcher not throwing down steals

[SmallPurse]

so... I have made it up to 1700 with this issue but its really starting to hinder my game...


basically, I cannot get my catch to throw to second or third on any steal attempt, I have to smash the button multiple times to get it to throw? players recognize this and beginning to steal everytime.


what gives?

Are you sure it isn't your controller?

Are you pre-loading throws for steals. Say a runner breaks for 2nd base are you pressing triangle to pre-load throw to 2nd?

Is it a created player? If it is, is their position set as C

Do you have throw cancel on, if that's the case.. bashing the button probably cancels the throw

I'll keep messing with it I guess. I am preloading and throw cancel is off. Catcher is Posey

Are you waiting until after the camera flips around and the catcher catches the ball to press the throw button? If you press it too early, while the pitch is still traveling, the button sometimes doesn't register. You have to wait.

Idk why that happens... science I guess.

This is what I'm seeing. For the first time in TS, I can't preload throws to 2nd or 3rd base. I've had more no-throws by the catcher on steal attempts in '16 than all iterations of this game combined.

Is this on RTTS? I threw out Gardner last night trying to steal second with Salty in my chise.
