Bug! Human manager does not pinch-hit for a reliever!

One run game, top of the 9th, pitcher's spot coming up. No-brainer?

I already used my only good PH, so my bench was: SS (shb, like a lefty), aaa utility infielder and backup catcher. My reliever has good contact rating and a favorable platoon split.

Not to worry, you'll be eliminated in the next patch.

The next patch must be called "August" then

He got a hit! I have seen good hitting pitchers. Gooden was one, Bumgarner is one. Drysdale pinch hit a lot in his career. Do not be ashamed, but do show us your code so Matt and Marcus can limit its appearance in game.

I'm gonna be so sad when the DH is in both leagues in the next agreement. I live for moments like this in real life AND in OOTP (where I can at least turn DH off).

yovani gallardo was a pinch hitter last year for the brewers once last year and actually got the go ahead rbi double if I'm not mistaken

Don't forget Don Newcombe, a consistent .300 hitter whom the Dodgers used as a PH even more than Drysdale.
