People don't understand here... it's isn't about "people dropping a throw" it doesnt take that into account. They don't check for an error for everyone who touches the ball.
And remember... when a batter fouls out the computer logic isn't:
1) batter swings
2) batter hits foul
3) who will field?
4) SS will field
5) Does SS make error?
6) No... he made a good play
7) putout foul out to short.
The computer thinks like this:
1) Player is batting.
2) generate random number
3) check number against player percentages
4) player fouls out
5) generate random number
6) display that random canned play to the screen.
The only reason you aren't seeing a foul to SS is because the developers haven't placed a "foul to ss" in their play routines....
I think to truly understand this you had to have played back in the days of PTP and Dynasty - no computer. Then people would understand how the idea of "canned" play came about.
But you know... in a sense, this is a great compliment to OOTP as it seem that many people are under the impression that the game actually plays like real baseball - where every single modifier is in play, and where the computer is making logical decisions at every movement of the baseball...
