Would the firstbaseman even bother to cover first IRL?
Even so, an occasional out, with a slow batter, is tolerable.
In some cases, the rightfielder is actually closer to first than a thirdbaseman.

However, if LEFTfielders start throwing out batters at first

A friend of mine did it the other day.

i did it yesterday playing a spring training fame with the twins vs the red sox, i had my rf and just threw it to first thinking it would be safe but then i heard matty v getting excited saying he was out, checked the replay and it showed he was tagged. no challenge or anything

To those who have done it, are you tagging them out when they round the bag, or are your 1st basemen actually covering the bag? I've thrown it and tagged them on their turn, but I've never had a single instance where my 1st basemen caught the ball with a foot on the bag.

I threw a runner out with Puig the normal way (first basemans foot on the bag). It resulted in me having to challenge it as he was originally called safe but I got the out. It was a line drive one hopper but the runner was like a 25 speed rating

I'm consistently inconsistent on throwing out runners period. Any tips?

Do you preload throws?
