A few peculiar things I have noticed

A guy stealing a base while his team is leading by 14-1, He'd be hit next time up for sure.

Pitchers seem to constantly try to sacrifice bunt with 2 strikes, maybe this happens a lot in RL, I dont follow NL baseball much (seems odd to me though)

Intentional walks that put the tying or lead run on base, intentional walks that get the tie or lead run to the plate.

I recently had a team score 9 runs in an inning, 4 of the guys were on base because of intentional walks.

Home team trailing by 3-1 in the bottom of the ninth, one on and two out, pitcher is up and does not get pinch hit for. (notice this a lot in late innings with a team behind)

All in all the game is ok, but these kind of things definitely detrack from the enjoyment, take an hour to play a game, then in the crucial point of the game, they dont pinch hit for the pitcher stinks.

BTW, all my settings are at normal.
