Would anyone know if HAL factors in a player's momentum, from game to game, or AB to AB. For example, could say Larry Gura get on a roll and win 7 or 8 games in a row, pitching way above his card, because HAL senses he's hot.

Just wondering.

No, I don't believe that HAL is that sofisticated. That sort of thing is actually inherent in the game with dice roll probablilties, etc. Sort of like playin' craps with $ rolls 7-8 times in a row and then cooling off.
