Ground rule doubles...too many?

[DarthRambo]

I swear I see at least one per game I play. I don't claim to watch a ton of baseball but that just seems high to me as I rarely see them irl.

Just my opinion, but I think the ball just bounces too high from the ground when it hits grass. What are you seeing? Too high of a frequency?

Don't think I've seen any this year. I was just thinking about that the other day wondering why.

I play my home games in Oakland so in the gaps are really high fences so that definitely plays into my number being at zero, but I'm actually surprised I haven't seen any this year.

The bounce on balls in play after landing in the outfield is definitely too much compared to real life.
I noticed this immediately out of the box. Compared to '16, it is much worse this year. Needs to be toned down some.

I'm playing with Cleveland who have decently high walls and see it at least once a game if a ball is hit there. Last night I hit a ball that landed just fair. It bounced into the seats in foul territory.

For me balls hit high enough to do that never stay fair. Lol

2 in 35 games. 1 played a part in one of the weirdest sequences in my 30 years of sports gaming

Bottoms of the 9th no outs. Runner is going to score which means I lose. I sit the controller down ball bounces over so the runner only gets third. Then the computer suicide squeezes two times in a row and fails both for easy outs. I win a few innings into extras.

I see one maybe every few games, that's reasonable IMO

Funny how people playing the game have so varied results...from "all the time" to "never see it", to "just about right". For me, I'd say it's "just about right". Definitely doesn't need a patch.

Re: Ground rule doubles...too many?

It really depends on the park you play in. Pretty much any fly ball that gets over the RF's head at Fenway will bounce over the fence for a ground rule double.

But hey, that's pretty realistic, so I'm not complaining.
