I've not had this problem. I've yet to get thrown out at 2nd or thrown someone out myself. But I don't use default sliders either. But I didn't even see it before I messed with the sliders. If it looks like it's going to be too close I play it safe and stay at first. But I've hit plenty of doubles.

The right slider adjustments cure this minor issue.

Go to the slider forum and check out some settings.

I have looked, I was not looking for a cure at this point as much as clarification on the issue or if it was an issue at all.

Problem with sliders is there is rarely a set that addresses one issue. So taking a set with altered fielding attributes may cause me to have to adjust other things as well.

And IMO the game needs very minor adjustments. Most slider guys look for things to correct or make adjustments too. After all, if they agreed on issues they would not need to produce so may different sets.

The thread is not a slider question as much as it is a "how do you feel about this issue" thread. Apparently from what I have seen here its around 50 50 so a very minor tweak in one of least impactful of the sliders I mentioned may yield the desired results over the course of a season.

I understand Paul Konerko is slow, but he also had 25 doubles last year. Maybe he is incapable of them now.

So I guess it is safe to assume that because of this one play you will never hit a double with Paul Konerko? Because that's the gist of what you're saying and I would be willing to bet people here can prove you wrong.

I bet I'll hit a billion ground rule doubles with him.

Now in what way is that post constructive?

Pete, you've been here a while and you know we don't tolerate that garbage here. If you don't want a discussion where others will disagree with you, don't post.

I don't think that is possible, not even with using C student math. Seriously, to make a statement about a developer and then use a very small sample size as a basis, is not very mathematically sound. Having met these guys, I don't know what type of grades they received, but their level of understanding is definitely above average. Looking at their 'physics' model, I didn't see anything glaringly wrong. And technically, this is not only physics, but more specifically Vector Dynamics and Kinematics as well (and yes, there is a difference)... but I am sure you could do better.

I would also admit that some pieces of the entire 'physics' model IMO, are done better than others. Are they perfect? No, but all things considered, neither are Paul Konerko's ratings. And the way a CPU approaches physics/dynamics/kinematics, is not the same as humans do, so the perception will not always agree since the CPU factors in probability with all decisions. Like someone said, bad combination of things on that particular play.
