That question above reminded me of something I did years ago, with the Apple II game "Computer Baseball"...

What if you had 9 hitters who do NOT make outs (basically bat 1.000) face pitchers who do nothing but get batters out (OBP of .000)? What would happen?

As I recall, in 1984, the sim gave the advantage to the hitters, but I don't really remember how much it was slanted. I don't see, using ratings, how OOTP could answer this question. The older sims that used stats to run the simulations (especially "replay" sims) could do it, though.
