BOB FELLER ONE HITS A’S
Game 1 of a 4 Game SeriesFeller 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 SetAfter 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.
-
CHET LAABS GRAND SALAMI SINKS TRIBE
Game 3 of a 4 Game SeriesChet 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!
-
@buffalohead Moving is the worst! Glad to hear you’re settled in.
-
@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???

MCQUINN’S 11TH INNING RALLY
Game 4 of a 4 Game SeriesThis game played a little bit like homerun derby. The 11th inning was no exception. Cleveland reliever Eisenstat imploded when McQuinn sent a ball into the seats. The Tribe would not recover.
-
FELLER SHUTS OUT WHITE SOX
Game 1 of a 4 game seriesBob Feller threw a complete game, 3 hit, shut out against the Chicago White Sox. This game was a highlight in an otherwise mediocre Indians season.
-
Milnar Disappoints Again
Game 2 of a 4 Game SeriesAl Milnar was booed loudly after a disastrous third inning. Milnar surrendered 8 runs to the White Sox in that fateful stanza and the Tribe never recovered.
As an aside, Milnar was the starter for Cleveland but in the boxscore is listed last. @APBA-GO-Jeremy
-
Looking at Al Milnar’s APBA GO Replay Stats vs. his real life stats and they hold up pretty well at this point in the season.

WHITE SOX HIT INDIANS HARDER
Game 3 of a 4 Game SeriesAnother good ol’ fashioned 1930s American League slugfest where the Indians’ pitchers fail them. Fans burn down the stadium after the game.
-
Fear not, this replay will continue. Just moved and there have been contractors and unpacking. Back to regular play soon!
-
@buffalohead the 1st baseman for the Sox is a relative to me although I never did get to meet him.

@coolpapabill Well that is cool!!!

JUST A QUICK GAME
Game 4 of a 4 Game SeriesHave you ever just thought I would sneak in a quick game… and it of course goes 13 innings!
-
@buffalohead Yes, every time I need to test/check something to do with end of game processes… it’s a virtual guarantee a game will go to extra innings!
