Anything stranger than this?
A Negro League simulation from 1921. A 28-24 game with only two hits total and 88 walks between the two teams. A bad day for algorithms?

Well, that's just crazy.
I mean, crazy things happen in baseball all the time and if you play long enough you will see some real outlier games. But this? I don't know. Feels like something went seriously wrong here somewhere. |

Yep

Actually, the next two games had ridiculous scores (36 runs on 0 hits) and things of that nature. Something must have gone wrong, so I'm scrapping it and starting over. |

Kind of reminds me of the 24 inning World Series game between the 1908 Giants and 1904 NY Highlanders that I simulated right after installing OOTP. And the 36-5 pasting of the 1914 A's by the 1914 Yankees in the unlamented year I served as A's GM. Even those weren't as weird as yours.

I wonder if it had anything to do with the following: I played Dayton in 1920, thinking that, since in real life the club moved to Columbus in 1921 that I would go along with the move. No move happened, Columbus appeared in the league, and I was stuck with a Dayton team with no league or schedule. I released all my players and resigned, signing up with Columbus. I signed a couple of my released players. No idea if that had anything to do with that wackiness or not. I guess since the Negro Leagues are "minors" those relocations don't happen, but I thought maybe the team would dissolve. Interesting. |

And the game write up completely ignored that 6 pitchers combined to pitch a no hitter.....

Can't hit the ball if you don't through it over the plate.

Can't get a D in English class if you don't throw it over the plate either.
