I only ask because in a recent game in the 10th inning with a runner on 3rd and nobody out my B speed runner got thrown out at the plate on a flyball to LF with my #4 & #5 hitters coming up, I lost the game in 13 innings. Stretching doesn't take speed or OF arm into account, which seems counter intuitive to me anyway so I'm wondering how I could have avoided this situation.
As a side note, there were runners on 1st & 3rd yet when the throw went to the plate my runner on 1st didn't advance, but I'm guessing ABE just can't figure that one out.

How does ABE determine if a runner is going to try and score from 3rd on a fly out to the OF ? Is it based on stretching or on chicken bones ?I only ask because in a recent game in the 10th inning with a runner on 3rd and nobody out my B speed runner got thrown out at the plate on a flyball to LF with my #4 & #5 hitters coming up, I lost the game in 13 innings.

pretty sure that one's on big Abe, tagging is totally out of our hands.

Then ABE's a horrible manager, who in the world sends a B speed runner when the next two batters each have an OPS north of .900 and the opposing pitcher has an ERA above 5.00.Stupid ABE

And/or perhaps Admin could look at the code that makes that decision, and tweak it. At the very least.

But you do raise an interesting point. *Is* this situation controlled by the Manager Preferences? If not, perhaps it should be.And/or perhaps Admin could look at the code that makes that decision, and tweak it. At the very least.
