Here is the distribution of Error types at 1B since 1920. I do not think the game currently has any issue here. We should only be getting a couple missed throws per season by 1Bmen in the game.

From BBR I have a breakdown of 1B Errors as Errors on Catches, Errors from Fielding, and Errors on Throws.

1920-1945 1B

Catch: 24.8%
Field: 53.6%
Throw: 21.6%

1946-1976 1B

Catch: 15.5%
Field: 74.3%
Throw: 10.2%

1977-1997 1B

Catch: 16.0%
Field: 69.9%
Throw: 14.1%

1998-2023 1B

Catch: 21.2%
Field: 56.9%
Throw: 21.9%

Since 1977, errors on catches (receiving a throw at 1B from another infielder) account for 18.7% of all 1B Errors.

In 2023 the average team made 7 Errors at 1B. 7 * 0.187 = 1.3

We should only be seeing like 1 or 2 errors per season per team by 1Bmen on catches receiving a throw.
