Just finished a season where I played out a team's 162 game schedule using "sim until runner is in scoring position" Here are two interface suggestions to make that mode better.

1. A widget that shows the basic scoresheet results for each half inning on the gameplay screen so the user can easily see how the innings with no RISP unfolded, as well as quickly tell how a runner got to scoring position. When I play, I flip to the play by play scoresheet if a runner reaches scoring position to figure out how they got there. This widget would put that info on the game screen, help fill in the game story, and help me avoid having to stop to repeatedly pull up the scoresheet.

2. When a run scores on a triple or HR or when a runner is doubled home from first, I'd like the play to be shown. These are usually game changing plays, but right now, the runs just appear on the scoreboard without any drama and I read about them on the play by play scoresheet.
