The 1950 Yankees won three of their first four games with the 1941 Yankees in their six game series but dropped the final two games for another series split. The '50 Yankees stay four games over .500 at 29-25 while the '41 Yankees stay at .500 with a 39-39 record.

The '50 Yankees won Game One 6-1 thanks to a five run rally in the 2nd inning, three on a homerun by Johnny Hopp. The '41 Yankees evened the series in Game Two with an 11-3 win; Red Ruffing got the win and went 4-5 at the plate with a solo homerun. The '50 Yankees retook control of the series in Game Three with a 3-0 win on the back of a Vic Raschi two-hit shutout. Joe Dimaggio hit a three-run homer for the '50 Yankees in the 5th inning of Game Four to turn a 3-1 deficit into a 4-3 lead, on their way to a 5-3 win that spoiled a first inning triple play pulled off by the '41 Yankees. They looked like they would be in danger of losing the series when they trailed 4-0 early in Game Five, but they scored 10 unanswered runs on their way to a 12-8 win despite a two homerun, five RBI performance by Hank Bauer. The '41 Yankees cruised to a 6-1 win in the final game to earn the series split.

Dimaggio leads the '41 Yankees in hitting at .333 with 28 homeruns, 75 RBI, 65 runs scored, and a 1.104 OPS. Bill Dickey is hitting .283 with 53 runs scored. Charlie Keller is hitting .260 with 19 homeruns, 59 RBI, 53 runs scored, and a .926 OPS. Joe Gordon is hitting .254 with 12 homers and 52 RBI. Tommy Henrich is hitting 15 homeruns with 55 RBI and 58 runs scored. Ruffing picked up his 10th win of the season while Johnny Murphy notched his 16th save.

Hopp leads the '50 Yankees in hitting at .363 with a .984 OPS. Dimaggio continues to hold steady at .311 with 13 homeruns, 59 RBI, and a .981 OPS. Raschi’s shutout was his best outing of the season, improving his record to 6-5 with a 5.02 ERA. The '50 Yankees will face the 40-38 1958 Yankees in the next series.

Exceptionally well-written. Nice job.

Am just curious… when playing with a micro manager (which admittedly, I never do) do you not still have the pre-game option of clicking ‘thumbs down’ on players who are not eligible to play that day? (ie. other starting pitchers, tired relievers, injured players?). Because that’s a great solution whenever I’ve played solitaire games on Autoplay.

@APBA-GO-Jeremy
That works too. Thank you.

@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

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?
