Hold runner – Infield In, etc

This is really a minor thing, but something I would like to see.

Currently “hold runner” default is to not hold the runner (I often forget to hit 5 when pitching then watch an A/A player steal 2nd easily) Since in “real” baseball runners are held about 95% of the time I would like to see the default to be to hold the runner and for the option to be to NOT hold.

With this in mind I would like to see a few of the defensive options to be on toggle control rather than a 1-6 selection. For example currently you cannot play the outfield and infield in, which is a common option in extra innings with a runner at third and less than two outs. So here is my thought.

A toggle system that would be reflected on the field (I realize with custom stadiums this would require either a new small window, or the graph points on the stadium)

H – By default runners are held, toggle changes to not hold
I – Infield In – default of course is back, toggle brings them in
O – Outfield In – same as infield
G – Guard the lines – default is normal, toggle is guard
B – Bunt defense – default is normal, toggle is bunt defense (for a text game I don’t think we need the details of wheel play, vs 1st and 3rd charging, etc. either defense bunt or not should suffice)

I think that is it, what do you guys think?

I think your ideas are brilliant and you should consider interface design.
