I believe I am one of the few who has yet to experience the glory of cycling Walk Off Hero. And, to be honest, I think I should be able to. At the moment, my top 4 are POTW Dahl, POTM Martinez, Legend Carter, and Legend Knoblauch. And with this "new" WOH I see a lot of players cycling and I do indeed see an increased number of fastballs. However, it seems as if the fastballs are in a way programmed. More often than not (always on level 5) I hit fastballs from any position (early, on time, late, ect.) and it ALWAYS grounds to the shortstop (usually a step or two away from second base), proceeding to a double play. Whenever I experience an inning like this, all my fastballs turn out in the same fashion: either a groundout to the perfectly placed shortstop or a fly out to the comparatively Willie Mays outfielders. On the rare occasion where I don't get this cursed groundball, I can mash fastballs for doubles and HRs and all my losses with that type of inning are usually due to personal error.I don't know, have the rest of you been experiencing "programmed" fastballs such as these?
Arenado or I will put Beuhler on DL

Has anyone ever won on a tag up or ground ball out to any infielder??? Anyone? Really...someone must have, right?
Let's not bring baseball theory into this though @deshaldyl. Such talk has no place in the GLUiverse.
According to Remedial Baseball 089 (prerequisite for Baseball 101), when you have runners on first and second with nobody out late in a tie game with the infield playing DP Depth, you almost always sacrifice bunt to advance the runners and stay out of the double play. This isn't even an option in this game.
It's doubtful the developers would recognize Derek Jeter if he sat at one of their tables while they worked their night jobs as trendy SF waiters. They certainly wouldn't be able to find his former position on the field even if you took them to second base and turned them towards third.
I don't usually swing late because I am terrible at it and whenever i try to its usually a fly out, single, or foul.
I've found that physically moving my finger location for tapping farther back towards the bottom of the plate helps me let the ball travel a little more before I swing. If they throw offspeed, I can always push my finger forward towards the front of the plate to get better contact .
