Far Too Many Hit Batsmen

In my test leagues to replay the Southern Association, the HBP totals were outrageously high... should have been 300 per year... but I got 1200 per season.

The league totals only had 300 listed.

Gave up creating the replay of the league because of this.

Anyone know what caused it?

I checked all of the pitchers to see what their HBP ratings were... they ranged from 1 to 11 per 550 batters.

I lowered them to 1 to 3 on all pitchers and still got the same 1200 for the league.

League Fielding was also quite high for 1947... .982 FA.

Apparently OOTPB doesn't match fielding averages with the historical year... I read that this has been a problem... fielding average is not year specific, but just generic.

I did manage to lower it to .968 FA by doubling the position modifiers from 1.000 to 2.000.

2.000 resulted in a .965 FA... 1.900 was .968 FA.

Once you have the league averages set, if you are on opening day, there should be a button to calculate the modifiers on that page. You can hit that, and it should adjust appropriately. That I would expect would solve your HBP issue, at the very least.

All I had to do was lower HPB in the league totals from 1.000 to .250 and it was almost right on the money... Hit by Pitcher dropped from a super high 1250 to a very reasonable 350... actual figures that year were 306.

Bigshot reminded me to try that and of course, it worked.

I can now do my Southern Association dynasty replay.

Really appreciate all of you guys... Bigshot, Spritze and BigRed75 were the others who kept giving me tips on what to do.
