Thanks for the reply. I love all the improvements that have come the past two years (smoother 3D, better graphics, socks etc.) and the OOTP dev. team's dedication to making the game better.
I just wish historical exhibitions were just a little more like they were in the past.
The last time I played 24, I almost beat the 2019 Astros with the 1906 Cubs!, primarily by being hyper aggressive on the bases and hitting and running all the time.

I mean, it doesn't do it exactly like that...it looks at the rate of home runs for Doyle vs. the rate of home runs for the average hitter in the league and extrapolates that into a home run rating that should convert to the same rate above/below average for whatever period environment he is placed into.
