No, man, this is just not the case.

You’re coming from the perspective, it looks like, that the animation and the play by play are anything more than filler. I’m sorry, but that’s all they are. The game is not physics based and there is most certainly not an “official scorer”, no matter how the PBP might read. If it helps to think of it this way, consider the game engine more of a very complicated cards and dice game that churns out a result and then transmits that result to the front end so it can make it look fancy for humans.

In this case, the “cards” said “double with the runner advancing to third on the throw”. If the animation looks confusing and like it ought to be a triple, that’s a big but the fix isn’t to make it a triple. The fix is to make the animation look like it was a double with the runner advancing on a throw to the plate (or third, as the case may be). Likewise, if the play by play implies it ought to be scored a triple, that’s not a problem with the play result, it’s a problem with the play by play.

Yes. Last year I posted about this along with others. I have to say, though, that some of these have been cleaned up for this year. Still a few around.

Yes, I can vouch 2 or 3 reported it last year. The animation will get it better eventually.
