Have a question about higher * ratings challenging me.

I seem to get a few teams with 6,7 and 8* challenging me, great ilike to see the gap in score lines. But, i seem to only loose by 1-2 runs. Yet, when i challenge them back i loose by say 12.

Is there a reason to the large gap in score when i challenge them??

Maybe it's just right after you trained that they challenged you. Ask commish.

Dont underestimate the power of home field advantage. Also it could have been training times, rosters etc...

If your opponent has one of the other stadiums, that could make a difference also.
