TRIBE FAILS FELLER
Game 1 of a 3 Game Series

Despite a 2.85 ERA Bob Feller’s record is at 7-7. He battles game after game only to see bats fall silent around him.

CAMPBELL WALK OFF HIT
Game 2 of a 4 Game Series

The Cleveland Indians won in dramatic fashion following a rain out a day earlier with a walk off hit from Campbell. The Indians went in to the bottom of the 9th down by two runs.

CLEVELAND RETURNS TO UNINSPIRED PLAY
Game 3 of a 4 Game Series

A day after an emotional, ninth inning rally, the Tribe returned to their usual listless state. Barely holding their heads above .400 fans can only wonder if a .500 season is possible. Upper management can only wonder if maintaining 400 fans at the games is possible.

KEN KELTNER BELTS A’S
Game 4 of a 4 Game Series

Ken Keltner’s homerun inspired the Tribe to victory! It was previously thought impossible. As the score tightened up towards the ninth, the Indians’ skipper pushed the panic button and brought in Bob Feller from the bullpen to close the door. Indians win!

FELLER FELLED BY GREENBERG
Game 1 of a 4 Game Series

Hank Greenberg took Feller deep for a 3 run JOHNSON that opened up the flood gates. As Bob Ueker might say, “…and another one just left the reservation.”

AVERILL BREAKS DEADLOCK IN 10TH
Game 2 of a 4 Game Series

Earl Averill doubled in the winning run in the 10th for the Tigers. Eisenstat’s weary arm then fell apart and Detroit swamped Cleveland with a barrage of hits. The boo birds once again were out in force in Cleveland.

CAMPBELL AND TROSKY GO BACK TO BACK
Game 3 of a 4 Game Series

Pitching and defense might win championships, but they didn’t factor into this game. Trosky and Campbell overturned an early deficit but that just set off an arms race that would unload run after run! Cleveland finally won out!

How do you get your box scores and pics to show up on the forum?

[APBA GO Jeremy]

@allen45fan In this case, @BuffaloHead is taking screenshots from the game/results and pasting them into his posts.

[BuffaloHead]

Exactly that. I copy them into paint. Trim them. Save them as a jpeg and post them. Only takes a moment. I am in the middle of a condo move but games should get moving again!

HALE BREAKS TIGER’S WINDSHIELDS
Game 4 of a 4 Game Series

Odell Hale hit two homeruns that fans claim were so deep that they hit visiting fans windshields in the parking lots. He must have very good aim.

FELLER BEATS YANKS!
*Game 1 of a 4 Game Set!

Bob Feller earned a win in a hard fought battle against the Evil Empire.

KELTNER PUNISHES YANKS
Game 2 of a 4 Game Series

Babe Dahlgren’s costly bobble in the fourth inning opened the door for the Indians. Keltner slammed the Yankees door shut with a loud homerun a few innings later.

[BuffaloHead]

HARDER CAN’T HOLD ON
Game 3 of a 4 Game Series

Mel Harder kept the Yankees bats quiet until the 8th when the Bronx Bombers proved to be too much. Bump Hadley went the distance for the Yanks only allowing a single run.

ATLEY DONALD GOES YARD
Game 4 of a 4 Game Series

Yankees pitcher Atley Donald hit a 3 run Johnson to secure the victory over Cleveland. Frank Crosetti also homered for the Bronx Bombers.

BOB FELLER ONE HITS A’S
Game 1 of a 4 Game Series

Feller had every pitch working for him on the hill. A’s batters swung blindly as the balls danced and dipped away from danger. The hitters left just shaking their heads. Ben Chapman powered the Tribe’s offensive attack going 3-3 with a run and a walk. Chapman also hit a triple!
