In the top of the 8th, Pittsburgh is ahead by one run and has a man on third with two out. The pitcher is up. Only one pinch hitter is available, a guy called up from AAA a couple of weeks ago (to fill a gap left by a trade) but a decent hitter. The AI chooses to have the pitcher bat for himself. He strikes out. The AI then puts in a new pitcher for the 9th (who, happily, gets the save).

Whatever was the AI thinking?
