Not Sure If This Is A Bug...

punchdrunk · 06-10-2009, 12:21 PM

I'm playing a fictional universe based on historical teams/franchises... and I'm not sure when I first noticed this, but now that I am into the "teens" (my current season is 1916) I keep seeing the last couple of "spring training" games scheduled on the same days as regular season games... it usually seems to be the last game, and sometimes the last two spring training games are lumped onto the first days of the regular season.

Anyone else seen this?

It may be that minor-league seasons are starting before major-league spring training is over. One time I noticed that after auto-playing spring training, one of my minor-leaguers already had a few regular season at-bats.

Here is a screenshot of what I am talking about: April 14, 1920

Opening day of the season, with spring training games on the same day...

I've had this happen as well. I ran a US MLB setup (fictional players), starting in 2001. In 2002 my team played a spring training game on the same day we opened the regular season. So my #1 pitcher pitched in the spring training game and my #2 pitched on opening day. I don't save boxscores, so I don't know about the lineups.

I had it in OOTP9 as well. Noted the issue but didn't go through the bug-fix procedure:
