APBA GO Forums

The hit and run success is relative to the H&R number, which is the number of 31s on a player’s card. Every player has a red 31 at black 34. Some cards have more 31s. Without explaining in excruciating detail how the board game works, I would suggest reading the help files in APBA Baseball for Windows. APBAGo and BBW are both based on the APBA Master Game, but APBAGo is a more direct port.

The 1932 Yankees cruised to a four games to two series win over the 1958 Yankees by winning the first four games. The '32 Yankees improved their record to 40-20, fourth place by winning percentage. The '58 Yankees fell to 58-68 with five series left to play.

Lou Gehrig went 3-5 with a triple, homerun, three RBI and two runs scored in a 7-5 Game One win. Game Three was a laugher as the '32 Yankees won 12-0 on the strength of a 20 hit attack. George Pipgras pitched a three-hit shutout and Joe Sewell went 3-5 at the plate with a homerun and five RBI. They won the series in Game Four 6-3; Johnny Allen got the win on the mound and went 1-1 with two walks, two RBI, and two runs scored at the plate. Whitey Ford stopped the losing streak for the '58 Yankees with a three-hit shutout in a 9-0 Game Five win; Yogi Berra homered and drove in four RBI. Trailing 4-3 in the 9th inning of Game Six, Mickey Mantle blasted a three-run homerun for a come-from-behind 6-4 victory.

Five of the eight everyday starters for the '32 Yankees continue to hit over .300, led by Babe Ruth at .360 with 22 homeruns, 62 RBI, 61 runs scored and a 1.197 OPS. Tony Lazzeri is hitting .352 with 12 triples, 51 RBI, 59 runs scored and a 1.041 OPS. Gehrig is hitting .348 with 10 homeruns, 59 RBI, 54 runs scored and a 1.062 OPS. Earle Combs is hitting .338 with 54 runs scored. Bill Dickey is hitting .310 with 13 homeruns, 64 RBI and a .910 OPS. The shutout by Pipgras improved his record to 8-1 with a 3.83 ERA.

Norm Siebern is hitting .301 with 90 runs scored and 14 triples. Mantle is hitting .270 with 32 homeruns, 80 RBI, 85 runs scored and a .961 OPS. Andy Carey has 26 homeruns and 85 RBI. Ford’s shutout improved his record to 10-8 with a 2.59 ERA. The '58 Yankees will battle the 40-20 1927 Yankees in the next series.

Already on the list.

Thank you!

It is supposed to be a numeric representation that reflects the number of 31s appearing on a card. But it is broken. We are putting in a fix. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

ha Thanks J

Hi Jeremy, there is a little weird thing on the player screen for a pitcher - they are getting a passed ball rating - they don’t have one.

@Tazmanean_Devil Great stuff. I remember being frustrated too… having a key starting pitcher enter the game as a reliever (espy if he thrown a complete game the day before). The day I figured out the purpose of that thumbs up/down icon was a bit of a game-changer…

@Denis That’s what I like to hear.

@APBA-GO-Jeremy thank you Jeremy

One thing I noticed is the the +'s aren’t showing up on the hitters batter’s characteristics - Like Langeliers is a -6/-4. I think maybe the -6 is actually a dash? I think he should be a +6/-4? I noticed this some other places

I had a collision yesterday with the two people hurt playing MG

There have been a few patches since you posted this… seems like a good amount of the issues regarding unearned runs being logged correctly our fixed. My last couple games they were 100% accurate.

If you find any more, you should put in a support ticket with the details. It doesn’t fix that game, but every patch makes the game better.

Kudos to the Go team for getting them sorted out!

Alpharetta has fixed it! It should be there now.

So I have now completed the three triple-elimination brackets:

1970’s Division:
Champion - '71 A’s
Runner-up - '78 Red Sox

Early 80’s Division:
Champion - '83 White Sox
Runner-up - '83 Orioles

Late 80’s Division:
Champion - '85 Blue Jays
Runner-up - '85 Yankees

Interestingly, all six teams to advance are AL teams. The eleven NL teams in the tournament have all been eliminated.

The three champs will now advance to a mini round-robin, lasting six games.
The two top teams of that will meet in a semi-final.
The third-place team will face the winner of the six-game runner-up round-robin.
(The two bottom teams in the runner-up bracket will be eliminated.)

Updating some overall tournament stats after 66 games:
The tournament BA is still .227, but the ERA is up to 3.86, while the Fielding % has climbed to .984.

The 1912 Red Sox start out 6-0 with a 2nd sweep… this time over the 1909 Tigers. Tris Speaker is leading the way on offense with an OPS over 1000 while the Smoky Joe Wood and Tom O’Brien have 2 complete game wins each

Was pretty easy. In this case, I simply printed off three 16-team double-elimination brackets off printyourbrackets dot com. I just used blind draws to fill out each bracket, drawing the team names out of a cup. For each game, I would toss a coin to determine the home team. Then would play a solitaire game while doing my best to help each team win. Kept stats on Collections.

@TSBL I’ll add it to the list.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy, I was noticing in Custom Teams (might be everywhere I didn’t check that the batting Characteristics might not be right - maybe not picking up the +'s and making them minuses? Noticed a bunch of players where both “sides” are negative…
