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.

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.

I love following this! Keep it up!

@dbacknate It has been so much fun!

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!

ODELL HALE WINS IT IN EXTRAS
Game 2 of a 4 Game Set

After Beradino’s costly error in the ninth gave away the St. Louis lead, the game headed to extra innings. The game finally relinquished by the A’s when Odell Hale came up big once again and saved Cleveland hurler Al Milinar from an otherwise disastrous performance.

[BuffaloHead]

CHET LAABS GRAND SALAMI SINKS TRIBE
Game 3 of a 4 Game Series

Chet Laabs grand slam off Mel harder in the top of the ninth gave St. Louis a three run lead and victory. Mel Harder pitched effectively but flirted with disaster several times during the game until ultimately unraveling at the key moment. It is a metaphor for his season on the hill and for Cleveland’s performance so far.

My condo is set up finally after my crazy decision to move during the holidays. Games begin again tomorrow night!

[APBA GO Jeremy]

@buffalohead Moving is the worst! Glad to hear you’re settled in.

[BuffaloHead]

@apba-go-jeremy Just boxes after boxes after boxes. The new condo is so much better but do I really want to do this in 20 years to retire to the cape???
