OOTP has never made up postponed games realistically ever since the option for postponed games was added.

Blame the game's financial system for this, as evidently every team has to play out its full slate of games and get all of its allotted home games (both of which are quite unrealistic, especially for earlier years).

For your example, in real life, assuming the game could not be made up in Philadelphia, the game would have been made up as Philadelphia at Arizona, giving the Phillies one less home game and the Diamondbacks an 82nd home game. Prior to 2007, Arizona would have batted second in both games; from 2007 onward, Arizona would have batted first in the make up game even though it was the home team.
