Historical Inaccuricies

     I played out a few seasons in computer mode, to see if the standings would be similar to the real life standings. The real life standings for 1955 had the Dodgers and Yankees finishing first. In the season replay, the Dodgers were edged out by Milwaukee, and the Yankees finished 23 games off the pace. In the 1919 real life standings, the Whitesox and Redlegs finished first. In the season replay for 1919, both teams finished way out and never were in contention at any time. Is there something that I should be doing to get these season replays to be more accurate?

Playing out the 1919 season again, and this time its even further from reality. the Whitesox are 33 games out with just a few games to play. The Redsox are 70 games over 500. Maybe I am doing something wrong. All I am doing is starting the season up, and letting the computer play it out.
