CPU reacher 100% after every pitch

I noticed a low pitch humming sound coming from the computer after every pitch (while the play by play text is still on the screen and before you a key/mouse button to continue).

At first I thought it was coming from my speakers since I'm playing with the sound on. So I turned them off. but I was still hearing the buzzing.

When I checked task manager, I noticed after every pitch the CPU Usage was reaching 100% (again, while the play by play text is still on the screen), and it didn't go back down to until I clicked a key to continue.

So I assume the buzzing is the CPU working, or maybe CPU fan. But should the CPU usage be reaching 100% then staying there? I could understand it peaking for a second then going back down on it's own, but why does it stay a 100% until I click a key or mouse button? Nothing seems to be happening once the pbp text completes writing.
