The 1952 Yankees beat the 1941 Yankees four games to two after winning the final three games of the series. The '52 Yankees improved their record to 35-49 while the '41 Yankees fell to 16-14.

Game One went to extras and featured some 10th inning heroics. Joe Dimaggio hit a solo homerun in the top of the inning to give the '41 Yankees a 2-1 lead, but Mickey Mantle countered with a walk-off two-run triple in the bottom of the inning for a 3-2 win. Dimaggio led the '41 Yankees to win the next two games. In Game Two, Dimaggio went 4-5 with two homeruns and three RBI in a 4-2 win. In Game Three, he capped off a three-run rally in the third inning with a two-run homer for a 3-1 win. The '52 Yankees won the final three games by holding the '41 Yankees to five runs. Game Five went 12 innings after Gene Woodling tied the game 2-2 in the 8th inning with a solo homerun. Billy Martin hit a two-out two-run double in the 12th to put them ahead for good for a 4-2 win.

Hank Bauer remained steady at .303 to lead the '52 Yankees in hitting. Mantle dropped to .300 with 10 homeruns and 61 RBI. Despite hitting just .239, Yogi Berra took over the team lead in runs scored with 62. Joe Collins now has 18 homeruns and 75 RBI to lead the team in both categories while hitting .275. Allie Reynolds picked up another win to move to 12-3 with a 2.73 ERA.

Dimaggio hit .391 in the series with four homers and six RBI for the '41 Yankees. He raised his overall average to .375 with 13 homeruns, 33 RBI, and a 1.241 OPS. In his eight starts, Red Ruffing is hitting .300 with three homeruns and a 1.100 OPS. On the mound, he has struggled; Ruffing is 5-1 with a 4.64 ERA. Spud Chandler is 3-2 with a 1.81 ERA. The '41 Yankees will take on the 31-35 1996 Yankees in the next series.

This helps Jeremy, thanks.

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?

Hello,

I created some steps to help me replay the Rays 2022 season using the collections feature and wanted to share my results. It does require a little work upfront, but it is worth it.

Goals:

Record stats for individual gameplay with the capability of adding notes and real-life results data. Roll up individual game data into a season bucket (Collection). Be able to retrieve any given game by the actual sked date.

Note: You’ll need access to Excel or a spreadsheet to import comma-delimited data. These instructions do not cover the Excel instructions.

I will replay the Rays 2022 season on APBA GO for this example.

Navigate to retrosheet.org and download the 2022 game log data file. Import the file into Excel. I only used the first 13 fields in the dataset – they are described below. Filter for TPA or your team’s 2022 schedule
a. I used the following columns but use what you want.
i. Date, Game #, Day, Visiting team, VT League, VT game #, Home team, HT League, HT game #, VT team score, HT score, # of outs and Day/Night indicator.
b. Save your Excel file. Navigate to APBAGO Create a collection called 2022 Season Replay – TB Rays Create a collection for single gameplay. I added the actual game date and scores to the collection description. This is a copy-and-paste function from the retrosheet excel file to the collection description field. You can add game notes in the description area. Play a solitaire or micromanager game. Upon completing the game, assign your game to the 2022 season replay collection and the individually named game day collection.

I hope this helps anyone trying to organize their gameplay using APBA GO.

Regards,
Sean - RaysFan
