Thanks for any guidance you can provide me.

From what I understand the actual AI used in "playing" games is merely showing you a rough idea of the play that happened within the simulation.
In other words, like in your example, the game simulated a infield sacrifice situation, and showed you such. It doesn't always look pretty because they're still working out the kinks in the visuals for the simulations.
Sometimes you'll see a mid-range flyball with a runner on third where it looks as though the runner could've easily scored, but it's only showing a rough estimate of a midrange fly, it might have actually been more shallow. It's very crude at this point, but still light years better than just a few years ago when they didn't have any visual. They only had text play-by-play.
They are actively working to improve it, though. I hope that answers your question.
