following along on my MG boards in MG if fun. The pitching change when say a 4 (HR) is turned to a 7 drives be nuts so nice to see the computer not just screwing with me !

The 1956 Yankees beat the 2009 Yankees four games to two to improve their record to 43-35. The 2K9 Yankees fell further under .500 at 37-41.

The '56 Yankees won a pair of 12 inning games to start the series. In Game One, Johnny Kucks took a 3-0 no hitter to the 9th inning. Both disappeared as Johnny Damon began the rally with a single, and Nick Swisher finished it with a game-tying three run homerun. The '56 Yankees went back ahead for good in the 12th on a Gil McDougald RBI single for a 4-3 win. In Game Two, Swisher helped the 2K9 Yankees come back late again, this time leading off the 9th with a triple while trailing 1-0. He scored on a Mark Teixera single to send the game again to extras. Once again, the '56 Yankees went back ahead for good thanks to a bases-loaded single by Enos Slaughter for a 3-1 win; it was Slaughter’s fifth hit of the game. The 2K9 Yankees won 7-6 in Game Three after relinquishing a 4-1 lead. The '56 Yankees scored five unanswered runs, capped by a Mickey Mantle two-run homerun in the 7th to give them a 6-4 lead. The 2K9 Yankees came back in the bottom of the inning with three runs on a Hideki Matsui two-run double and a Robinson Cano single to retake the lead for good. The '56 Yankees won Game Four 6-4 in another back-and-forth affair. Jorge Posada gave the 2K Yankees an early 2-0 lead with a homerun. The '56 Yankees came back with two runs in the 3rd and 4th innings to take a 4-2 lead. The 2K9 Yankees scored two in the 7th to tie the game, but Billy Martin gave the '56 Yankees the lead back for good in the 8th with a two-run homer. Damon tried to single-handedly win Game Five for the 2K9 Yankees. He tied the game 2-2 with a two-run homer in the 7th then gave them a 3-2 lead in the 9th on a RBI single. The '56 Yankees came from behind for the win off closer Mariano Rivera with a walk-off pinch hit bases loaded double by Norm Siebern for a 4-3 win. The 2K9 won the final game with a whupping, a 12-2 win in which Cano went 3-4 with two homeruns, four RBI, and three runs scored.

Mantle leads the '56 Yankees in hitting at .302 with 21 homeruns, 55 RBI, 61 runs scored, and a .978 OPS. McDougald is hitting .279 with 51 runs scored. Bill Skowron is hitting .271 with 18 homeruns and 62 runs scored. Yogi Berra is hitting .264 with 11 homeruns, 63 RBI, and 52 runs scored. Whitey Ford leads the pitching staff with an 8-3 record and a 2.34 ERA. Tom Morgan picked up his 10th save with a 1.45 ERA.

Cano leads the 2K9 Yankees in hitting at .296 with 12 homeruns. Posada is hitting .285 with 19 homeruns, 69 RBI, and a .922 OPS. C.C. Sabathia pitched a complete game win to up his record to 10-6 with a 3.57 ERA. Even with the blown save, Rivera is 2-1 with 15 saves and a 1.54 ERA. The 2K9 Yankees will battle with the 37-29 1939 Yankees in the next series.

Sounds good!

@RobNPR I have no idea.

My team doesn’t make the cards.

Thankfully.

Vinman,
“Would there be a reason to play both?” - This would be a Brewster’s Millions situation - Where you had to use up so much money in a limited amount of time. Otherwise, I can’t think of a reason to play stratmax, but this is an APBA forum. - Steve

I did use the 50’s Clarence micro manager. not to inundate the space with tons of numbers but the basics team wise:
Actual/Replay numbers hitting wise Actual/Replay: Ave. .266/267, Runs. 775/774, HR. 221/217, SB. 45/41, RBI. 734/758, BB. 528/525, Hits. 1406/1401, OPS. 777/761. Uncannily accurate!!!

Pitching Actual/Replay: W/L. 91-63. 96/59. ERA. 3.85/3.44, CG. 47/100, K’s. 653/775, HR. 141/132, BB. 458/392, Not nearly as accurate, but still only 5 more wins.

A couple of interesting individual results: Actual/Replay
Klu: AB. 572/574, Ave. 305/302, HR. 39/35, Bi. 102/102. OPS. 914/898. Pretty amazing!!
Robinson: AB. 576/572, Ave. 285/290, HR. 32/38, BI. 99/83, OPS. 895/936
Most of the other hitters were very comparable. I was very impressed with the accuracy of the offensive numbers across the board.

Pitching: Actual/ Replay. Not as accurate in many cases.

Brooks Lawrence. IP. 219/243, W/L. 19/10, 19/10!!!, ERA. 3.99/2.70
Joe Nuxhall. IP. 201/254, W/L. 13-11/. 20-10 ??? ERA. 3.72/3.15
John Klippstein. IP. 211/210. W-L. 12-11. 14-13. ERA. 4.09/3.31
Freeman. IP. 109/131, W-L. 14-5. 7-2, Saves. 18/9, ERA. 3.40/2.74
The other pitchers were also less accurate than the hitters but not ridiculous.

thanks guys

@TSBL Correct, only pitchers with an actual game started may start a game at pitcher.

Actually I’m seeing the play it safe button once I got home on my computer I could see it a little more clearly.

Had a big S on it LOL and I swear one time it seemed like a steal happened immediately but maybe not haha

He is a 1b3 in GO and a 1b4 in BBW

Thanks for your help. Ron

Well I kind of understand LOL. He was a borderline guy and with an master electronic update he sort of just fell through the cracks to become an a kind of on a technicality. Sounds like the apba Go cards go by this electronic update and the master rating more than they do the original card basic pitcher rating,? It’s kind of convoluted and hard to follow but I generally got it. Thank you

Makes perfect sense! Thank you

splits look great. anyway to make the catcher throw ratings only appear on master game like the other MG symbols? sorry old purist here hate when the basic game card look changes. but love it when playing master

welcome Ron

@Phillyj1m ok i think I have it figured out now…the “dash” next to the first number (vs LHP) is not a dash…its the minus sign.

@Riverrats88 Hi,

You can make changes to the fielding team when the ball icon is visible in the action bar.

You can make changes to the batting team when the bat icon is visible in the action bar.

That is what usually trips people up.

Thanks,
Jeremy
