My guess is that it's a holdover from earlier versions of OOTP which did not, officially at least, support doubleheaders, although you could schedule them and they would be simmed by the game.

Speaking of which, there are a number of little fixes which could be applied to doubleheaders, such as distinguishing between single-admission doubleheaders and separate admission doubleheaders (e.g. day-night affairs). Single-admission doubleheaders means one ticket gets two games, thus attendance is identical for both games but ticket revenue is only generated once, while separate admission doubleheaders means both games are separate events, with their own ticket sales, attendance figures, and ticket sales revenue.
