when trying to run faster, do you have to hit the button of the baserunner repeatedlt like we did in 2k6? i can't really tell if the batters are running faster, or not. Thanks.

I could be mistaken, but I don't think there is a way to do it in 2K7. It's probably for the better as real baseball players should be hustling at max speed in real life for every base. (At least, they should be!)

...is there a smart fielding and fielding boost as well? I don't seem to see it. Plus, does anoone else know if there is a base running boost. you're right about the runners should run full speed, but they actually don't. It seems as though Juan Pierre runs as fast as molina

According to ign.com's review, 2K7 no longer has the option to push the button to make the runner pace himself to base. That sux! Then why the heck do they have the button logo when they're running to base then!?

wow, really? lame now since that makes the speedy guys insignificant to the game now. hmm... the button logo appears (i think) because that button is designated to control only that particular runner..

Has anyone had this problem!? Just tonight I had 2 chances to get a 2 guys home to score and just about 3/4 of the way they turn around and head back to 3rd to get tagged out. WTF!?
First off, how do we control the runners!? With R1 and L1 or is there something I missed here?:confused:

I played last night and had 3 guys thrown out at 2nd on hits that should have been easy doubles. There has to be some kind of speed burst or adjustment for the speed of players.

from what i've seen from screenshots, it seems 2k7 on Xbox has the turbo boost button icons from 2k6, but the 360 version does not.
i have the 360 version, and there's no icons.

i do not think there is turbo like in 2k6, which sucks. i've been thrown out a few times at first on a routine single into right field!
the "glitch" you mention is not really a glitch but new button controls. happened a few times to me today. example, bottom 9th, i have a man on 2nd. the batter lines a shot into the gap in right center, i push L1 twice to make sure my guy at 2nd will advance home and i'm tapping button for (non-existant) speed burst, then notice that my batter's base indicator says he's also headed to third, so i push X to control him, and R1 to keep him at 2nd as the outfielder already got to the ball. thinking, i already scored the tying run, but low and behold, my guy who was headed home was on his way back to third and never scored. tagged out, and game over.
the R1 and L1 buttons will now call ALL runners back, and you need to use the directional pad buttons to call back individual runners, whereas i believe in 2k6, R1 and L1 could be used individually as long as specific runners were highlighted.
i pains me too. seem like i just wasted $30 on a game that is the exact same (if not worst) as last years, without even any new uniforms for my nationals/expos!! btw, the commentary seems glitchy too!
