Welp, still freezing. I will post a support ticket.

The 1923 Yankees beat the 1958 Yankees four games to two in their six game series. The '23 Yankees improved their record to 31-17 while the '58 Yankees dropped to 53-61.

The '58 Yankees took the first game 5-4 in a marathon 16 inning affair. The '23 Yankees jumped out to a 3-0 lead in a bizarre 1st. inning that included an error, three walks, and no hits. After the '58 Yankees came back to tie the game the '23 Yankees went back in front 4-3 in the 9th after Lou Gehrig hit a pinch-hit triple and scored on a single by Whitey Witt. Tony Kubek sent the game into extras with a solo homerun. After six scoreless extra innings, the '58 Yankees finally prevailed when Moose Skowron hit a solo walk-off homerun. After that homerun, the offense for the '58 Yankees dried up. They were shut out for the next 25 innings, including back-to-back shutouts in Games Two and Three by Joe Bush and Sam Jones. Mickey Mantle ended the drought in Game Four with a two-run homer, but it was in a losing cause as the '23 Yankees won 3-2. The '23 Yankees clinched the series in Game Five with a 4-2 win. The '58 Yankees won the final game 6-4 after trailing 4-0 after two innings.

Babe Ruth is hitting a ridiculous .420 with 25 homeruns, 61 RBI, 55 runs scored, and a 1.556 OPS. No other player has more than 35 runs scored and RBI. Waite Hoyt remains undefeated at 7-0 with a 1.01 ERA. The shutout by Bush improved his record to 6-4 with a 3.15 ERA. Jones’s shutout boosted his record to 6-1 with a 2.03 ERA.

Mantle now has 27 homeruns while hitting .261 with a .927 OPS. Whitey Ford continues to lead the starters in ERA at 2.77 while sporting a 9-6 record. The '58 Yankees will face the 28-14 1938 Yankees in the next series.

@TSBL I’ll add it to the list.

Back at it after the holiday… The Cubs one game 3 of the series over Washington behind 2 solo home runs (Frank Chance and Solly Hofman) Chance in 6 games has 6 extra base hits… 3 doubles, a triple and 2 homers. In the actual 1906 he had only 36 ebhs in 136 games… talk about a hot start!

Also getting a 66/11 combo twice in 2 innings? Someone check those dice!

Coming off his no hitter, Miner Brown managed to get to the 4th before giving up his first hit of the season, and went to 2-0 with his 2nd complete game

the 1906 Cubs as a team managed to go 4-2 through their first 2 series despite hitting .168

Naturally, I expect the league average to be pretty low with all the transcendent pitching seasons in this group, but that’s a bit crazy!

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…

Thank you! Hope yours was as well.

HI. The Basic game does not manage infield in/out. You have to do it manually when presented the opportunity.

Thanks,
Jeremy

@Steve_Admin Thanks Steve! Yes, seems great even on Google now, too! Happy Thanksgiving!

i agree t its simple logic

I DID just think of a temporary fix for the ERA problem… how about adding runs/game to the stat block? That’s something that will still have value when its fixed and would be a great ERA replacement for now until its sorted

I would prefer the game engine correctly identify the earned/unearned runs (Which I’m sure is the play)… allowing manual edits seems giving up.
