I've never experienced this problem. It certainly isn't the players: In 1959 Aaron batted .355 39-123. The 1959 Braves averaged 4.6 runs scored, 3.9 runs against.

I suppose there are a few things we can look at:

How deep are you into the season? You're in serious danger of small sample size and confirmation bias.

Is this league wide? The best way to tell would be to compare runs scored / runs against vs. total games played. If it's only your team, it could be the way your lineups are constructed.

The number of hits seems awfully high. I would be curious to see what your batting averages look like, especially since your Aaron is actually doing worse than RL (.330). Going back to the '59 Braves, they averaged 9.1 hits/game.

When you start a new game, make sure the modifiers by year are importing correctly. That could have an effect as well.
