    Funny minor bug in WSB

    Hit a liner to the gap in right centre. Ball lands between the CPU's CF and RF, and rolls to the wall. All of a sudden the ball disappears, and the message "GROUND RULE DOUBLE" appears. Didn't make any difference as it was a double either way, but I guess the ball rolled under the fence??

    Yeah, it rarely happens, but at least they handle the bug well by making it a ground-rule double instead of an inside-the-park homer.

        Another one I have seen is once in every 100 games (that's my guess at least) is when you have runners in scoring position and you hit a hard single in right-center or left-center. They could easily cut it off and stop runs from scoring, but instead, as soon as it's hit, they run to the wall and wait for it to bounce back and then throw it home. These are groundballs and I have no idea why they would do it, but it's pretty funny to see a groundball get hit and the computer turn around and run towards the wall like they're afraid to catch the ball or something!

            I hit a bouncer towards the foul pole post at Shea Friday, and although it was Fair, the ball bounced oddly enough to make it bounce out of the park, onto the green grass area.

            It was a ground rule double, but it could have been a triple.

                Once they had a guy on the corners with 2 out in a 3-1 game. Guy hits a little chopper up the third base line and all runners go, it rolls foul.. I hear the announcer go, "And the run comes in!!" Then it registered it a foul ball, the runner went back to third and the score was now 4-1.
