Do things happen in bunches?

Posted By Eric Hansen

Is it just me, or do things tend to happen in bunches for other people too. When there's a particular event in most games I play, there's usually a rash of the same event in the inning, be it pick offs, wild pitches, balks, walks, etc. It SEEMS like the only way to stop the bleeding during these streaks is to make a pitching change. I wonder: is streakiness built into the game engine? Is the lack of true randomness in computing responsible for statistical anomalies? Not complaining, just curious.
