85+ speed? How hard were the hits to right? What kind of secondary lead did you get? Lots of factory involved.

Line drives directly to the right fielder, yeah he's probably not going to score. However, if they are ground balls getting to the outfield, they should have no problem scoring.

The user can't control the secondary lead of the runner. It's the same for every player.

If the players, especially the ai players wouldn't throw strikes on every play, that would help also.

Just a regular ole ground ball single to RF, not soft, but not a screamer either, Id say it was a hardish hit ball that skipped 3 or 4 times through the infield grass/dirt before reaching the OF.

It also depends on the stadium's you are playing at. Playing my home games at Yankee Stadium, i know not to challenge things hit to RF because of the short porch. Same as anything hit to LF in Boston. The OF plays so shallow in stadiums like that, it makes it nearly impossible to score on balls hit to those positions.

In addition, JR already mentioned the hard charging that OF do in the game which plays a major impact.

Its like this in any stadium. Its simply bad programming and needs to be fixed ASAP.

Boh. Was always using either armor and swords or mike lows sliders and had no problems with this. Scored plenty from 2nd base on ground hits.

Re: Runners have to be able to score from 2nd on a base hit to RF SOMETIMES!!!!

It's actually fairly realistic in my opinion. If you abide by the rule of coaching third base. Send the runner home if the runner is at the bag before the outfielder has the ball, don't send him if the ball gets to the outfielder before the runner is at the bag.

The issue consistently is that the ball is hit too hard.

Also, get an extra step at second every single time and slide around the plate (where you touch the plate with the runner's right hand).
