My creation… 30 random teams hosted inside the Holodeck. Each round will be played in steps with 2 teams per step. Winners move up a step, losers move down a step, while the unfortunate team that drops the tribble at Step 1 is ejected from the simulation, unceremoniously dumped from the arch, and left to the cold void of the ship’s memory purge before the dropped franchise rights are auctioned off to the highest-bidding Ferengi trader and a brand-new random team is materialized in their place.

@maltesetim-0 Solitaire games stick around for about a year.

The ability to select pitchers marked as relievers for starting pitcher.

I play actual line ups. Many (well, a few) times the actual starter is in the reliever section and not able to be selected as starter.
“O, woe is me, / To have seen what I have seen, see what I see!”

The 1932 Yankees dominated the 2009 Yankees five games to one in their six game series, outscoring the millennials 65-28. The '32 Yankees are now 52-26, third place by percentage. The 2K9 Yankees are now 68-82 with one series left to play.

The offense for the '32 Yankees was relentless. In Game One they scored 10 runs in the FIRST inning en route to a 19-5 slaughter. Ben Chapman and Frankie Crosetti each homered and drove in four RBI apiece. Tony Lazzeri hit two bombs with five RBI in a 12-7 win in Game Two, spoiling Jorge Posada’s two home
runs, including a grand slam. Defense let the 2K9 Yankees down in Game Three as a Nick Swisher error led to five unearned runs in a 7-3 loss. Babe Ruth went 3-4 with a home run and four RBI. The '32 Yankees clinched the series in Game Four with a 12-1 win in which they had 13 hits and 15 WALKS! Gehrig had this bizarre stat line: 1-1, double, five walks, four runs scored, two RBI. After dropping Game Five 6-4, the '32 Yankees won the final game 9-6 behind Gehrig who was 3-5 with a double, home run, and seven RBI.

Ruth hit .482 in the series with a couple of homers and seven RBI to raise his average to .383 with 30 home runs, 85 RBI, 90 runs scored and a 1.247 OPS. Gehrig hit .435 in the series with 13 RBI to raise his average to .367 with 15 home runs, 91 RBI, 78 runs scored, and a 1.147 OPS. Lazzeri hit .414 in the series with a couple of homers and eight RBI to raise his average to .348 with 11 home runs, 16 triples, 69 RBI, 82 runs scored, and a 1.043 OPS. Johnny Allen surrendered only two hits in his complete game win to run his record to 8-1 with a 3.69 ERA.

Derek Jeter’s average dropped to .281 with 19 home runs, 35 stolen bases, and 98 runs scored. Posada hit .333 in the series with three homers and nine RBI to raise his average to .265 with 30 home runs, 114 RBI, and 75 runs scored. The 2K9 Yankees will play their final series against the 50-22 1936 Yankees.

Jeremy replay feature i think. I created the teams for 1975 RR and set up
The opening day rosters. But i must have done something wrong

Furthermore:

Collections

Collections should now export based on filter selection as expected Replay Collections with missing Autoplay games should have them returned Further performance improvements for large Collections

Now my games don’t automatically go to collections and my games on my 1964 replay will not go in collections.

The micromanagers are using the provided stats to make decisions. There are extreme circumstances that happen in the context of a full season, but when making decision points for Micromanagers, we look at individual games and historical decisions. We haven’t yet provided micromanagers that are tailored to an individual team, much less in a specific season environment. - Steve

Slot has been filled

In addition to the usual fixes and whatnot, we’ve been doing some work on optimizations of baseball under the hood.

This patch also introduces some changes to Collections to better accommodate very large Collections. You will notice the games and standings tab load when you first access a Collection, and clicking on batting, pitching, etc. triggers an additional load of data for only that tab. Once loaded, the data remains available on that tab and there are no further loads. This will decrease the amount of time needed to get into a large Collection, and reduce the time it takes to see the data you need. In a smaller Collection, the changes will barely be noticeable. We will be making further adjustments to Collections in our next release, including corrections to the way averages are calculated in total fields, and more.

We also undertook a general optimization pass on database queries used across the application. Currently under scrutiny are changes to the processes used for Autoplay games. A database cleanup will occur over the next few days where unnecessary records are removed from the database. And more optimizations will be included in the next patch.

This optimization and efficiency work is being carried out to prepare Baseball for its eventual integration into the new apbago.com platform, and will take a few releases to complete.

As always, please let us know if anything changes (negatively) and affects the things you normally do with the app.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Basic (solitaire).

@TSBL Yes, but at least, the AI says you’re a “sophisticated” history geek…

Boston massacred the A’s pitching, winning the first two games of their key series in come from behind fashion, 4-3 and 7-5… with the A’s touching Smoky Joe Wood for 5 runs, but still losing… Wood himself started a 3 run rally in the 7th that gave the Sox the win. Jack Coombs spun a 3 hit shutout to salvage game 3 and keep the As in 3, but their chances to move up have dropped greatly.

Tris Speaker had a huge series, raising his average to .336 (2nd), leads the league with an amazing 16 doubles and is now 2nd with 25 RBIs… one 3-run home run away from triple crown position.

With 3 series (9 games) remaining, The Cubs lead Boston by a single game, with the As 6 back.

@ddruk It’s on the to do list.

Thanks,
Jeremy

@Steve_Admin okay sounds good! thank you!

@wildfire2099 thanks! Ive been playing for a week and realized they have most of them in the book. However it took some time to learn them. Ive already added the optional rules aswell and im looking for a deeper experience so I found the master edition secondhand. This game is awesome but I need it to be a little more involved than the basic game. But the shipping prices at the apba website are insane right now.

the basic game letters are a range on numbers from the advanced game. so A&C would be 20-24.
