There seems to be a small bug with how the batter's "batting handedness" is recognized. When playing out a game, the current batter and pitcher are shown at the bottom of the screen. It identifies RHP/LHP and RHB/LHB. It seems that for the batters, it is set to look at their throwing hand, not how they bat. I have seen switch hitters who throw right handed listed as a RHB, as well as players who bat left handed, but throw right handed listed as a RHB. They are on the correct side of the plate when they hit, so I don't think the AI is recognizing them incorrectly, just the spot where it has RHB/LHB in front of their name.
