In MVP movie #2 (from this website), it takes Andruw Jones approx. 5 seconds to reach first base on his double into the corner at Wrigley and 4 more to reach second for a round-trip total of 9 seconds.
Based on this, if we assume an in-game average rate of 4.5 seconds for 90 feet for a decent runner like Jones, you've got a 40-yard dash time of 6.0 seconds, which, anyone will tell ya, is bad - especially for a guy like Jones who would likely be in the mid-4's. Even adjusting for the fact that baserunning isn't necessarily an out-and-out sprint, it's still much too slow.
This sours me on the game a bit, but I'm still leaning towards it due to the clone-bodies and stiff gameplay being offered up by WSB2K3 (call me shallow)
