So your fallacy was a false analogy, then? Because I have yet to hear a coach, scout, or baseball pundit state that cycles of the moon have an effect on the game. Joe Morgan, who is basically the Oprah Winfrey of baseball woo, hasn't even said this.

Personally, I am of the opinion that it's a game. I say, put in all the little things like this in there, and in the event someone studies them and finds everything is explainable without their existence, take them out. The game isn't going to go to heck because there are small mods in there for streakiness or coaching or morale.
