One other thing to note about OOTP's postponement feature is that clubs will still nevertheless play out their full slate of scheduled games, regardless of how many postponements there are. That is, all postponed games are made up.

While that is nearly always the case currently at the major league level, it certainly isn't the case at the minor league level, nor was it the case at the major league level in the past. Teams sometimes finish the season with differing numbers of games played due to some games not being made up.

Yes, I understood that.

Yes, I figured that. I was just pointing out that, technically, a traditional doubleheader is a two-for-one affair. (Something OOTP is not able to recreate at present, due to financial engine limitations, as I understand it.)
