If you use a left-handed first baseman, the glitch is non-existent. At least, that's what I've found by using teams who have left-handed first basemen. I have played with teams that had right-handed first basemen, such as the Mariners, Cardinals, and a couple others. In those games, the first base glitch reared it's ugly head numerous times. In my Mariners' franchise, I had 10 errors in four games using a right-handed first baseman.
When I played with the Pirates (LaRoche) and the Rays (Pena), the glitch did not happen one time. I have played about 10 games combined with these teams, and it has yet to happen. In one of my games with the Pirates, the glitch DID happen because I started Eric Hinske (right-handed). It happened three times in one inning when Hinske was in.
So, that's what I've found... Hopefully your favorite team has a lefty manning first base.
I am actually beginning to (gasp) enjoy this game... A little. I have kind of accepted the glitches, and I hope 2K releases a patch to fix the main glitches (editing ability, AI aggression, overlays, fielding glitches) but I won't hold my breath.
I hope at least some of you are enjoying the game!
