The 1938 Yankees won five of six games in their series with the 1996 Yankees. The '38 Yankees improved their record to 28-14 while the '96 Yankees fell to 52-74.

The '38 Yankees won the first four games of the series. Tommy Henrich went 4-5 with two doubles and four RBI in a 8-1 Game One win. They scored eight runs again in Game Two, but it took them 13 innings to do it. They scored five runs in the 13th to break a 3-3 tie for an 8-3 win. Four of the five runs scored were unearned thanks to a two-out error by Paul O’Neill. Defense let the '96 Yankees down again in Game Three. Despite both teams having 11 hits, the '38 Yankees won 10-2. Six of the seven runs given up by '96 starter Kenny Rogers were unearned thanks to an error by Wade Boggs. Meanwhile, the '96 Yankees left 12 men on base. The '38 Yankees won another extra inning game in Game Four; this one was 3-2 in 10 innings. Bill Knickerbocker hit a pinch hit walk-off double for the win. The '96 Yankees won their lone game in Game Five 12-8; Mariano Duncan went 4-6 with three doubles and five RBI. The '38 Yankees won their third extra inning game to finish the series. The '96 Yankees erased a 6-2 deficit in the eighth inning with a four run rally, capped off by a three-run homerun by Derek Jeter. Darryl Strawberry then gave them a 7-6 lead in the 10th with a solo homerun, but Joe Gordon countered with a walk-off two run dinger to give the '38 Yankees an 8-7 win.

Bill Dickey leads the '38 Yankees in hitting at .320 with 15 homeruns, 48 RBI and a 1.084 OPS. Joe Dimaggio is hitting .309 with 11 homeruns and a .970 OPS. Lefty Gomez, Red Ruffing, Spud Chandler, and Monte Pearson have combined to start 32 games. Their combined ERA is 2.63.

Jeter took over the team lead in hitting for the '96 Yankees at .293. Duncan is hitting .292 with 42 doubles and 91 RBI. Andy Pettitte is 14-6 with a 2.99 ERA; he remains the only starter with an ERA under 4. The '96 Yankees will battle the 23-13 1923 Yankees in the next series.

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?
