Post From: Limit order Fills on Replay

and a limit sell order is entered at 37.00. The eventual fill is 37.03 which is an example of this price improvement that wouldn't occur in the real market. That 37.00 limit would have stood in the orderbook and got taken out prior to price trading at 37.03.
The problem is the order price you are setting. You are using an order price below the current price.

You can see that here:

So the solution to this is on your side.

Could this logic be applied to the replay back test to ensure that price improvement on limit orders doesn't occur?
No, we would not do this for replay back testing.
