Yep.

Download and install the skin files for the skin you want to edit from Add-On Central in-game.

Assuming you want to edit the "OOTP 14" skin:

When installed, the skin files will wind up in C:\Program Files (x86)\Out of the Park Developments\OOTP Baseball 14\data\skins\OOTP 14. Everything you need to edit is located in the style_sets\game_screen folder:

Code:
gamescreen_playbyplay_bottom_left.png
gamescreen_playbyplay_bottom_mid.png
gamescreen_playbyplay_bottom_right.png
gamescreen_playbyplay_mid_left.png
gamescreen_playbyplay_mid_mid.png
gamescreen_playbyplay_mid_right.png
gamescreen_playbyplay_top_left.png
gamescreen_playbyplay_top_mid.png
gamescreen_playbyplay_top_right.png
Edit those in the graphics program of your choice. You may have to zoom in a lot, as some of those images are only 1 pixel by 1 pixel.

Optionally, if you want to change the color of the PBP text, open the pbp_text.ss file in a text editor (like Notepad) and change the "fg_colour" value to whatever you want. Note that that's not a standard RGB code (it's 8 characters long as opposed to 6), so you may need to experiment a bit.

To implement the edited skin, simply delete the "skin.bin" file located in the skin's main directory. The next time you open OOTP, it'll rebuild the skin.bit with your changes. If OOTP is open when you delete the skin.bin file, just change the skin to something else and change it back and OOTP will rebuild the skin.bin.

Here, I changed the background to a painful green and the text to white (I used #FFFFFFFF as the code):
