BUG on playing OOTP8 Sosa scores twice on 1 AB

Clearly a bug....

First inning two outs Sammy Sosa hits a long ball that bounces of the wall. The play-play announce says he missed the HR and his "figure" ended up on 2nd Base.

Now D.Lee scored on that double, BUT BUT Sosa is credited with 2 RBI and HR on the gamelog boxscore and the screen display.
Cubs got TWO runs on this play.

Whatever strange is that Sosa have scored according to the game BUT still stands at 2nd bse on the next play. That was a BB and the play play announce now states runners at first and second. The next batters struck out so Sosa never got the oppertunity to score twice on the same bat.

Important miss-mass between screen and text/stats

Sadly I couldn´t get the text from the play-play back so you must trust me it was a longball that bounced on the wall.
You can see he got both 2 double and a HR on the same swing.

Sammy has always been special and perhaps those pills helped him ;-)

PS Looking after the game at the pre-season stats is is clear that the BUG is in the BOX SCORE lineupcard (the first part) It says 1 HR, but further down it correctly states that Sosa had a double.

So the play-by-play announcer got it wrong and the screen lineup showed it wrong as a HR.

Looking at another game Derek Lee hit a basehit. Got injured on the bag and Felix Pie became the pinchrunner. Next AB for FPie as 1B he hit a HR and the boxscore showes D.Lee AND F.Pie with 1 HR each.
In the lower section of the Box Score only Felix Pie is listed as HR hitter.
Conclusion something wrong with the first part of the Box Score table....

The HR and RBI columns to the right of the batter in the box score are season totals.
