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.

Well it seemed that Big17Easy was asking if the games were being played in two separate locations in OOTP. IE from my example one game in Philly and one in Arizona on the same day. They currently aren't, and both teams are getting a "last at bat game", so question answered. I think.
While it would be nice to get every rule, based on every season played, right I'm ok with how OOTP does it, until or if it adds all of the real life possibilities. IMHO there are more important "fish to fry" but if Markus and Matt moved this to the top of the list? I'd be fine with that too.
