3D: Foul Balls

[ecd1973]

I have played out a lot of games using the 3D view. The one thing I would like to see added is to have the fielders actually go after foul balls down the line. It would increase the drama significantly if foul balls down the line actually look like they may be fair. The ball itself is perfectly animated where it looks fair for a while then hooks foul at the last second. But because the fielders don't move at all, I know right away that it will be a foul ball when the flight is done. Can we have the fielders at least make an attempt?

Agreed. In addition, (and this is a PBP thing) - include the occasional spectacular catch a la Anthony Rizzo at Wrigley Field (both last year on the tarp and wall and this year on the wall - the two catches occurred a year and four days apart in almost the exact same location and both times vs Milwaukee)...
