Just an interesting discovery...

While playing around with my fictional league (I've been simming seasons to tweak the settings), I began a new season by simming a day at a time and checking the box score and game logs after each game. I noticed that in one game, two teams had played an extra-inning game that went 16 innings and used about 6/7 pitchers each. To my surprise, I discovered that the losing pitcher was a backup catcher!! So the computer AI will sometimes insert a positional player as a pitcher in certain situations.
