Opposing pitchers are killing me

Is it my imagination or do opposing pitchers rake at the plate? Currently looking at opposition pitchers with a 23 game hitting streak, 6 homeruns 21 rbi. Running an expansion 2021 team in Vegas and can't get them out

Stay out of the casinos, it appears you're having a run of bad luck*

*I do not actually believe there is such as thing as a run bad luck

I dont know. I always swear pitchers get too many hits when I play out games, but it's too difficult to prove unless I start writing down the result of every pitcher AB as they happen.

I think it's because we always expect our pitcher to get the other pitcher out so when he doesn't it stands out. It's more of a negative feeling when they get the hit than a positive feeling when they get them out, and those tend to stick with us more.
