My apologies for such a cryptic report, but this was the first time I'd reported on text related bugs. In this case, the message was a news/email. Also, I've never quite figured out how this part of OOTP works. I believe the error must have originated in messages.dat. In my game, it produced this:

Power Tags Orioles for 5 Hits
<Vic Powerlayer#417> socked it to the Orioles today at Memorial Stadium. The 30-year-old Athletics first baseman rapped 5 hits in 5 at-bats to lead his club to a 7-1 win over <Baltimore:team#1>.

[%string#1)

Power is hitting .327 for the season with 1 home run, 5 RBIs and 4 runs scored. He has 18 hits in 55 at-bats and played in 16 games.
The [%string#1) was replaced with whatever it was supposed to be replaced with.

Possibly this is problem is specific to the player, or game, or situation. Don't know. So I'm just throwing it into the hopper.
