Double added to stats but seemed to not occur

Something came up in a simmed game of which I was checking out the box score. It is not a big deal by itself, and hopefully it is just a fluke thing and not a sign of big problems in the league file. I had never seen it before though and decided to just pop it up here to see if anyone else has seen it and could offer any info about what might have happened. It was not something I could find in a search, but then I was not sure of what keywords to use.

I had a batter (J.Ocampo) apparently come up with the bases loaded in the 9th inning and hit a double. He got credit for it in the box score, the pitcher got charged with the hit, and it was counted as the 4th hit of the inning in the game log. However on the doubles line score it only said the following:
BATTING
Doubles: S. Barela (7, 4th inning off Samora, 1 on, 0 out.) J. Ocampo (18.)

Then in the game log (see below) the event seemed to not happen even though it got counted in the inning and individual stats. Well, the batter got the double in the stats, but no RBIs as he would have had to have gotten given that the bases were loaded. The player was a PH for the pitcher's #9 spot in the lineup in the 8th inning who stayed in playing CF while the new pitcher moved into the #8 spot the starting CF had held.

Code:

Pitching: Douglas Samora
New pitcher: Dwight Giroux.

3B Garrett Ketterer:
Base on balls.
New pitcher: Willie Buehler.

LF Norman Broussard:
PH Richard Stallings:
SINGLES to right
G. Ketterer to second.

1B Paul McCusker:
SINGLES to shallow left field.
G. Ketterer to third.
R. Stallings to second.
Ketterer tries to score...
He scores without a throw.

RF Efren Nuno:
Grounds into fielders choice to the second baseman, McCusker out at 2nd base.
A. Hawkins to third.
C Juan Merkley:
SINGLES down the first-base line.
A. Hawkins scores.
E. Nuno to second.

PH David Fletcher:
Base on balls.
E. Nuno to third.
J. Merkley to second.

CF James Ocampo:

SS Anthony Hildreth:
Grounds into fielders choice to the shortstop, Fletcher out at 2nd base.
E. Nuno scores.
J. Merkley to third.

2B Stephen Barela:
Grounds out to the second baseman.

Inning over... 3 runs, 4 hits, no errors.
