Battles are fairly mundane things, while miracles are, well, miraculous.
Radical skepticism is boring.
We know that battles happen and that people witness such, almost often from opposite sides. It is the disinterested, multiple attestation of battles that lend to their historical plausibility, and especially, the political, linguistic, economic, archeological and dynastic changes that persist for generations and centuries after a battle.
