You can always change the strategy of how your team is managed by going to team options then select strategy. From there you can change how you want the AI manager to manage the team based on what inning the game is in and the score situation.

On the other hand, if you are using actual teams you also have the option of using the actual manager to run the team during the game. Before each game, after you click "manage" from the daily schedule to get to your lineups, you can change the controls of your team, which is on the left hand side of the screen, from you to the actual manager.

For example, before each game in my dynasty with the 2011 (and beyond) Red Sox, which I have in the dynasty forum, I am managing the team during the game but I have T.Francona as my "3rd base coach" (baserunning) and my bench coach (defense strategy).
