Yeah, I get an occasional "he was just too fast" line in the PBP, but that's just as likely to happen to a guy with "C" speed as it is to a guy with "A" speed.

And whenever you see a "quick throw" to first, I think the runner is safe every time. Could just be me, though.

But I love seeing an "E" catcher get a triple, especially when the ball was played by an outfielder with an "A" arm. Then again, I saw Greg Luzinski hit a triple IRL, so anything is possible.
