Since the position you posted isn't exactly legal since you have like 20
something black pieces on the board, I tried this position:

[D]4b1r1/4k3/1rp1p1p1/1pPpPpPp/pP1P1P1P/P2K4/3B4/8 w - - 0 1

Apparently Fritz isn't any smarter than your program, because it wants to take
the rook too! Fritz sees this as -4.71 in favor of black after cxb6, and it sees
the position as -8.84 in favor of black after the "next best move" Be3. I always
knew that deep down I was better than my computer!
