You guys can defend the purpose of this to death, but it doesn't take that much slowing up to catch the ball, and there are quicker crow-hops to get the ball home, too. Must I make a video of myself doing this? And aside from home runs, balls in the gap, or balls off the wall, I haven't seen a ball clear an outfielder's head, and I'm talking some low-liner shots that get out there quickly are being tracked down. The outfield speed seems right though, so it must either be that they're playing deep or the ballpark is that small. On that same token, I'm having zero success with Howard because of that damn shift! I think I'm bickering because I haven't won in like 15 straight games!

I think outfield throws and catches need to be re-worked...sometimes there are decent animations and sometimes they throw like they are physically challenged....
