I know about hit-and-run, but the runner takes off when the pitch is thrown. Lots of time, my batter misses and my runner is thrown out at 2nd. I want an option to have the runner take off when the ball is hit so that it'll reduce the chance for a double play.

Thinking more about this, maybe there really isn't that much of an advantage. You might get an extra base on a base hit but I don't think you can cut down on a double play probability.
