Latest example:

Leading 8-1 in the 8th inning. AI sends up a pinch hitter to bat for my good field no hit second baseman. Then puts the pinch hitter at 3B and moves my weak gloved 3B to 2B.

The relevant strategy setting: pinch hit for position players for innings 7&8 leading by 4+ runs: slider all the way to never.

To be clear, this is a double error on the AI, using a pinch hitter with that strategy setting, and moving the weak 3B to 2B.

I realize this only matters to people who don't play out their games, but in online play, it really makes a difference.
