I have seen PbP commentary that suggests there might indeed be overlaps (e.g. "there's some miscommunication... the ball drops between them", indicating that either of the fielders could have caught the ball; "3B cuts in front of SS, picks it up, throws to first", etc.), but that might just be cosmetic stuff and not how the game engine actually handles things.

I have had the 'miscommunication' happen more than a few times in 1.5 seasons so far. OF consisting of 75 in LF & 65 in both CF & RF.
not sure if that has anything to do with it though...
