Evidence of a double steal attempt
February 07, 2014 at 03:24AM View BBCode
My defensive settings are to bring the infield in in all available situations from the 4th inning on. In this game, top 6th, tie game, 1st and 2nd, one out, guy on 2nd steals 3rd, which should have brought my infield in, but instead:Inning: 6 Cleveland

I've seen these before a few times. Did they steal at the same time, or a few pitches apart, who knows?

i think it had to be the same pitch, or my infield would have come in...otherwise it's kind of a bug.

That's true, sorry I skimmed thru your first post. I wonder how the catcher decides which runner to try and throw out?

Cool. I did not think that double steals happened. This is probably a mistake, with two different steal attempts in the at bat and the fielding code check only catching the initial situation for the at bat but not the subsequent runners on 1st and 3rd after the first steal.

just saw another one, and this time the evidence appears to be irrefutable, because the double-steal attempt happens with 0 out, the infield still came in after, even though the same batter is still at the plate. I wish my catcher tried to get the guy at 3rd, ha.Inning: 9 Baltimore

Do your settings take outs into account? I'm asking because if the infield would only move in after 1 out, that could also explain it.
paulcaraccio
the mystery is how would the guy on 1st know to attempt a steal on the same pitch...the base isn't even open.

It isn't a same pitch scenario. This is a known glitch (where the lead runner attempts a steal, then the other run attempts a steal; but the code does not re-assess the situation for moving the IF after the first steal attempt, it only runs that at the beginning of an at bat). Sorry.

But not between the two steal attempts. I still think that there were independent events.

I still don't think that this is fixed, or that they actually attempted a true "double steal." If they did, your catcher is stupid for getting the tailing runner. :)

Ugh. That last sentence makes me sound like a complete moron.I still don't think that this is fixed, or that they actually attempted a true "double steal." If they did, your catcher is stupid for getting the tailing runner. :)
