Hi Brian, simming I see a common denominator with yanking SP in the 5th. Look at the box scores and I think you'll see that if that team has scored 0 runs and is down 2-0,3-0, etc. the pitcher comes out.

I raised SP stamina to 99 to test.....same thing, so I don't believe it's a stamina issue.

I get messages for my team at the 5th inning wanting to know if I want to pinch hit, even if my pitcher has good confidence and a lead. Is that somehow tripping something for the CPU team?

Hope you look at this.
