This is true. Before the latest patch, the hometeam had an average advantage of .010 in OPS. In real life it is around .040. I reported this to Markus and he says he made adjustments. I haven't taken the time to see what the new numbers actually are yet, however.

Edit: Checked wins and losses quickly (OPS takes longer to gather)....MLB home teams win about 54% of the time....my latest 32 team league had a 53.4% home team average.....only a one season, average, but it's nearly 3000 games, so I think it looks pretty good....I'll check the OPS numbers when I have the time...
