The 1977 Yankees lost the first two games of their six game series with their next door neighbors, the 1978 Yankees. After that, they reeled off four straight wins to win the series and improve their record to 60-90. The '78 Yankees fell to 15-9.

A Reggie Jackson defensive blunder cost the '77 Yankees in Game One as his error led to two unearned runs in a tight 2-1 win for the '78 Yankees. The '78 Yankees won Game Two 7-2, but the '77 Yankees locked it down after that. They tied the series in Game Four with a 11-5 slugfest in which Lou Pinella homered and drove in five RBI. Jackson redeemed himself for the '77 Yankees in Game Five when he hit a solo homerun off Goose Gossage in the 9th to break a 2-2 tie for a 3-2 win. They clinched the series in the final game by scoring three off Ron Guidry in the first inning, two by a two-run triple by Mickey Rivers, for a 4-1 win.

Jackson’s average held steady at .276 with 36 homeruns, 91 RBI, and 98 runs scored. Thurman Munson raised his average slightly to .273 and drove in a couple of more runs to give him 93 for the season. Sparky Lyle picked up three saves to give him 23 for the season to go with a 4-3 record and a 2.82 ERA.

Jackson continues to stir the drink for the '78 Yankees at the plate as well; he is hitting .312 after 24 games with seven homeruns, 18 RBI, 20 runs scored, and a .978 OPS. Willie Randolph is hitting .268 with 16 runs scored and 11 stolen bases. '78 Ed Figueroa is undefeated at 4-0 with a 1.62 ERA. 21 game loser '77 Figueroa is jealous. Gossage suffered his first loss and his ERA jumped to 2.25, but he has 10 saves in 12 appearances. The '78 Yankees will play the 38-52 1952 Yankees in the next series.

@APBA-GO-Jeremy
For additional Information there is an email sent to customer support on 3/4/25 with the title of APBAGO 1950 season replay with the transactions in red are the players whose cards are not where they should be for 1950 replay.

@APBA-GO-Jeremy The replay lineups have problems when player is traded later in the season is not restored back to the team the player began the season with. In the 1950 season almost every player that was sold or claimed on waivers is on the wrong team

I keep waiting for the micromanager to handle pitching realistically before getting into a full season replay.

Newspaper style boxscore would be great like the old days.

It’s not great.

Is the a way to change the entire replay league to DH with 1 move so I don’t have to do it every game? Is Malcom an better. Pedro is terrible.

@APBA-GO-Jeremy Thank you Jeremy! I hope you have a great new year! Cheers.

@Nooch66 Awesome!

That is cool! Did you use APBA GO? I am just starting 1984 with Replay option.

Thank you, Jeremy

The All Star Break has arrived. Here are the standings; note: A few teams have played a couple of more games than others because coordinating schedules wasn’t easy. :)

**East Division**

1905 New York Giants 59-19
2019 Washington Nationals 40-38
1979 Pittsburgh Pirates 37-40
1969 New York Mets 34-43
1980 Philadelphia Phillies 33-44
1997 Florida Marlins 29-48

**Central/West Division**

1907 Chicago Cubs 45-32
1942 St. Louis Cardinals 43-37
1957 Milwaukee Braves 41-36
1976 Cincinnati Reds 40-38
2001 Arizona Diamondbacks 33-44
1963 Los Angeles Dodgers 31-46

Obviously, the Central/West Division race is more compelling because the '05 Giants are just ridiculous. They have a team batting average of .309. .309!! Their 521 runs scored are over 100 more than the Big Red Machine of 1976 (394). Either their cards are flawed compared to their actual stats, or they are getting the best run of random computer dice rolls ever. Dan McGann, the current favorite for MVP hit .299 in 1905 with 5 homeruns, 14 triples, 23 doubles, 75 RBI, and a .825 OPS. McGann after 78 games? .375, 10 homeruns, 11 triples, 18 doubles, 97 RBI, 1.033 OPS. Oh and 20 stolen bases too. Good grief. Here are the other All-Stars:

2B: Joe Morgan: .281, 16 HR, 62 RBI, 76 runs scored, 41 steals, 1.000 OPS.

3B: Mike Schmidt: .240, 21 HR, 62 RBI, .891 OPS

SS: Bill Dahlen: .277, 45 RBI, 45 runs scored, 24 SBs

OF: Mike Donlin: .436, 70 RBI, 67 runs scored, 19 stolen bases, 1.046 OPS.

OF: George Foster: .299, 14 HRs, 66 RBI, 46 runs scored, 18 stolen bases.

OF: Henry Aaron: .286, 24 HRs, 61 RBI, 51 RBI, .909 OPS

C: Roger Breshnahan: .318, 78 runs scored, 26 stolen bases.

SP: Johnny Beazley: 11-4, 1.98 ERA, .140 OBA

I like it. Keep us posted. I know what you’re saying about three playoff teams vs two. But I think you’ll appreciate how many more games will still be relevant late in your season. And a short 2vs3 playoff will be fun as well…

How did you enjoy 1908? All games played or autoplay?
