Doubleheader 26th man?

Is there a way to add a 26th man to the roster on double-header days, like real life?

OOTP does not recreate this rule. You could mimic it by increasing the active roster size to 26 on the day there is a doubleheader, but this would affect all teams, not just the ones playing a doubleheader.

I've wondered why this wasn't put in as it doesn't seem like a super hard coding deal. Maybe just not a big priority, but it seems like you usually end up with 2-3 dh's a year, so it does matter. Would be nice to see eventually.
