I don't understand this game.

[DIRTY-SHAWNCHEZ_PSN]

First:

Two games. Both games against same team. Both games I gave the same pitcher. Both games I have the same lineup.
Game 1 is on AS difficulty. I put up 12 runs on 13 hits. Game 2 is on Veteran difficulty. I can barely scrape by with 1 run on 3 hits.

Second:

Third game. Playing a different team in Rookie difficulty. There is a 74 OVR Bronze SP starting in the CPU team. I sit there and watch the CPU throw 20 pitches. 2 of them in the strike zone. The other 18 out of the strike zone.

Sometimes this game makes me want to shake my head in disbelief.
