It's not really a matter of whether the decision is better or worse. It just appears to be inconsistent with how the AI is coded to evaluate batters and handle pitchers in the lineup. It appears to be doing something rather inconsistent or self-contradictory. Of course, human managers can do the same thing, but they're not hard-coded by developers.
For me, it's not a question of whether the strategy exists in real life or makes sense. It already does on both counts, but it's weird that the AI would do it in the case of Mays but not apply it where it makes even more sense with Ruth.
