The 1939 Yankees beat the 1923 Yankees four out of six games to improve their record to 45-33. The '23 Yankees fell to 55-53.

Joe Dimaggio got the '39 Yankees off to a roaring start in Game One with a first inning three run homer. They held on for a 4-3 win. No less than 10 home runs were hit in Game Two. The '39 Yankees hit an incredible seven solo home runs; the last four were hit in the 9th inning by Dimaggio, Bill Dickey, Joe Gordon, and Tommy Henrich, all back-to-back to turn a 7-6 deficit into a stunning 10-8 win. Game Three, of course, was a pitching duel with Atley Donald pitching a one-hit shutout for a 1-0 win for the '39 Yankees. It looked like the '39 Yankees would win four straight as they had a 5-1 lead in the 9th, but Bob Meusel hit a two-run triple and Everett Scott hit a grand slam to lead the '23 Yankees to a wild 7-5 victory. The '39 Yankees clinched the series in Game Five with a 7-4 win. The '23 Yankees salvaged the final game, a 9-4 win. Babe Ruth had a monster game, going 4-4 with two home runs and five RBI.

Charlie Keller leads the '39 Yankees in hitting at .344 with 11 home runs, 62 runs scored, and a .989 OPS. Dimaggio hit an amazing .600 (!) in the series, 15-25, with four homers and 11 RBI. He is now hitting .318 with 18 home runs, 65 RBI, 62 runs scored, and a 1.010 OPS. Red Rolfe is hitting .299 with 60 runs scored. Dickey is hitting .288 with 16 home runs, 72 RBI, and a .952 OPS. Donald’s shutout improved his record to 8-3 with a 2.33 ERA. Red Ruffing won his only start to up his record to 12-1 with a 2.03 ERA.

Ruth raised his average to .395 with 35 home runs, 98 RBI, 103 runs scored, and a 1.356 OPS. Joe Bush picked up his 10th win; he is 10-12 with a 2.94 ERA. The '23 Yankees will battle against the 38-28 1950 Yankees in the next series.

The problem I addressed was fixed the next day! Haven’t seen any other issues.

Well… right now I can go play a game and get no delays. As can QA.

We tried different game modes, no delays.

We’ve asked people through support to send in game ids so we can see what game configurations are resulting in slow downs.

No one has sent any in.

We can’t fix a problem we are not experiencing.

So please, send a game id or two of slow games to Support and we’ll get it solved.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi!

If you turn the pitching change rule off, it will no longer use the Pitching Change table in your game.

For a true Master Game experience, it’s better to leave it on, as with the other Master Game rules.

Thanks,
Jeremy

How wild is it that back in the day, our greatest athletes went to war with our military? Can anyone imagine Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Judge fighting overseas?

I’m not sure. Try the Pitching Change Rule, maybe?

@APBA-GO-Jeremy
Thank you Jeremy!

copy and paste to a blank excel spreadsheet ~ I resize all the column widths to 5 (Format_Column Width_5_Ok) so that you can view all the data without changing the View from 100%

I agree now have had that affect the outcome twice in the bottom of the 8th inning

@BogotaBrave Yikes…

That is an excellent question, that I counter with something tangential and mostly unrelated. Look! The dice rolls from six ‘games’ based on your criteria. There are some wide swings, relatively speaking, with some results getting hit 6 times in a game. But it’s never the same… 36, 12, 61. Sixty-six gets a lot of hits, except game 4, where it’s a bad day to need a home run I guess.

To try and provide some color data for your question, let me show some results for 10x rolls:

A decade or so back I wrote an application that simulated our big country-wide lottery (not as big as powerball, say, but I always thought it would be nice to win ;) ), and I had a bunch of work acquaintances try it. There were (relatively) quite a few free tickets, $2 wins, a fair number of $5s and a good amount of $20s but things tapered off quickly. And no one won the ‘easiest’ $20,000 prize - even me, who macroed my own app to play it hundreds of times trying to win it. People thought I rigged it. :)

Numbers are mean.

@Wchatrison355 Hi. You should fill out the support form so we can investigate those games.

Thanks,
Jeremy

@Steve_Admin No, but if I can find it, I will. (It was a “few” games ago.)

@BogotaBrave Hi! This we WERE able to reproduce. We’re working on a fix.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Note: AFAIK the setting was switched to on

I agree it would be nice for instructions on how these options work. I play both MG and BG but some of the options aren’t explained. It took me a while to learn what the step play referred to

@Bumper37 Hi! If you’re using the Replay feature, click the ‘View Collection’ button to be taken to the Collection for that Replay.

Any games played in the Replay will be available there, and the stats will aggregate.

If you are playing through a season manually, make sure all the games are assigned to the same Collection.

View the Collection using the Collection link on the left side menu to see aggregated stats.

Thanks,

@maltesetim-0 I’m guessing the 3D dice are unavailable? Lol. Grayed out.

Hi!
There seems to be some strange behavior in the master game on base advancement anytime the calculation comes out over 36. I “believe” the calculation should be: Hit Value - Arm Rating + Runner Speed. I don’t have the boards, but as there are 36 combinations on 2 dice I assume 1-36 is the ‘roll’ range. So here’s an example

2 OUTS ; CONCEPCION on 2nd. Ken GRIFFEY SINGLES to right:
Result: SINGLE to right: 42 *52/44 *54/46 *56; RF (1B-SS) C (PL-to left: 46 *56/48 *58/50 *60; LF (3B-2B) C) SAC: Batter out; A-1B PO-2B†
Sub-Result: game-cso-2

I assume game-cso-2 is a roll of 2 so first group = Hit Value of 52. Right Fielders Arm is 33 and Runner Speed is 18 = 52-33+18 = 37. This is what the advancement dialogue told me and gives a percentage of 99.00% (Actually should be 37/36 = 102.78%…automatic). But the play by play says:
The defense throws to catch out Dave CONCEPCION
A 5 is rolled against Dave CONCEPCION’s 1
The 1 is 36 less than the calculation and is 2.78% instead of 102.78%
I have seen many examples of this and it’s always when the calculation is OVER 36 it seem to roll against that number - 36.

I had some screenshots, but can’t seem to copy them here. Anyone else notice this? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!!!
