Sorry, a bit off topic but this is the second post I've seem mention the late slide issue. You've seen this in v25?
I did see it a lot in v24 (sometimes an on-time slide and a second on the way to the dugout

) and wondered about v25. In my first v25 ST game there were two times a player slid into home, neither was late. Fist thought was appears they fixed it, but keep an eye out. Small sample size and all.
I'm now 13ish games into my first spring training, managing every inning and have yet to see this happen. I will keep watching, but it is pretty hard to miss when it happens.
