Hope OOTP21 gets someone to rework the game recaps code... they really are very poorly written and very poorly constructed as far as game coverage is concerned.

One of the worst things the recaps do is picking the player of the game... when he is on the losing team, the recaps key on him rather than the winning team... and they fairly regularly pick the wrong player as player of the game.

They could get rid of the player of the game... and they could also get rid of the often inane comments by the players and managers.
Sadly, the recaps are best when they're turned off. They're fine for anyone who just wants a few paragraphs about what happened, but anyone who grew up reading baseball writing in local newspapers or other publications will find them woefully bad.
