I dunno how you ended up on this sub but Baseball 9 came out in 2018, the art style they are copying came from this game's first edition which came out in 2015.
But ty for informing me of a game that copied Super Mega Baseball lol
That's freaking weird... have you tried graphing your system usage? Could at least tell if it's the GPU getting maxed out (unlikely) or the CPU getting maxed out (bugs cause this).
This freeware can chart both GPU and CPU usage:

Unfortunately the CPU getting "maxed out" is not really discernible on a chart, it doesn't look like a solid 100%. You can have CPU waits causing long frametimes while CPU is sitting at 40%. But you can at least tell if it's a GPU bug.
This is true, it is entirely possible for your router to be dropping ping packets if they arrive with a TTL of 0, without any indication of any problems with your internet service.
For a more detailed look, you would want to use MTR, which does not come with Windows or Linux. It will combine a ping and a traceroute and show you the % packet loss at each hop, and you'll be looking for packet loss after the trace has left your home network:

scroll down to MTR for a guide on how to read its results, it's for Linux but similar.
I can vouch for this thing. Cheap and works fine.

Yeah it was night and day difference. In my situation my XBox isn't in a good position to run a hard line to the modem so I gave this a try: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MTNKNPZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's pretty much the same thing as a hard line and it works really well for me
