Where else would you be throwing the ball but to 2B if it's a single? I agree it shouldn't have been completely removed, but I was responding to the idea that saying the game is unplayable is an overreaction. It's not unplayable at all unless you don't know where the ball is supposed to go in particular situations.
Ball hit into the gap but cut off, you should be getting it in to second base quickly. You don't need to see the baserunner to know that.
