Ok, not a troll, sorry if I offended you. Have you watched a lot of MLB baseball? Honest question so please don't read it as an insult as there are many OOTP players that are "new" to baseball. It just seemed to me after being a fan for 50 years that scores like you reported were not unusual at all, just random. You just got some random "same score" games back to back
I only looked at the Cubs record for 2018, as they are my team, to find verification. I would think the 5 in about 8 weeks is on the high end of the odds, but haven't confirmed it with real data. It is easy enough to go to a club's site and look over their schedule month to month to find more data.
As to my on going OOTP game I first looked at my Cubs. We led the league in run differential and had the best record (but didn't get to the World Series
) and had 2 instances of back to back same score games.
The Mets, in my game, had a .500 record and were only +2 in runs over the whole season. They carded 4 instances of back to back same score games.
I also checked out Tampa Bay as a middling team in the AL. They had 2 instances of the b to b same score games. One of those was losing both games of a double header 4-2, talk about random
What are the odds? Point being this could certainly happen in baseball, both real life and OOTP.
Hope that helps.
