Yes some improved milestone recognition logic in game would improve immersion too.
I had a young 3B Rogelio Mendoza* who wasn't fully ready for MLB yet, but due to injuries got a short break to get a taste.. He hit a HR on his first AB, his actual first pitch!.. The game was just like 'That's Rogelio Mendoza's first HR of the season'.. like 'it ain't nothing but a thing!!... as opposed to something that just acknowledges that 'the kid's just nailed his first pitch over the fence!, what a start to your career, or welcome to the MLB!'
The whole game's statistical architecture probably needs a good overhaul, and would then unlock a whole lot of awesome things like that. I'm sure there are super neat algorithm's that could discreetly run during the game along a continuous ticker tape, shooting off almost randomly generated but contextually relevant (based on screen/team/time of year/event/etc)stats, records, upcoming records on the boil etc..
*Of course OOTP ain't got time for romance on your terms.. my debut HR hitter 3B prospect Rogelio Mendoza, went 1 for 21.. yo-yo'd a bit over next 2-3 yrs to age 24 and just never came on..and I traded him when another hot shot in my farm at 3B came out of nowhere and took his spot!
Love this game
