First one, they're now just driven hard, instead of hard and high. I don't see any similar problems with the other options in that section atm.
Second one, unfortunately there's no way I can make sure that it would only say "beats it out" when a play was made at first like you say, which I agree is pretty much the only time it's said. It's kind of a shame to not have the call, but I deleted all the "beats it out" and "legs it out" options for a safe call so they won't show up at times it shouldn't.
Hopefully these particular problems are dead now.
