Here is an example with MM Anthony.

The starting pitcher (Waddell) was replaced after only 2 innings pitched.
He had only faced 9 batters. His rest/BF number is 33.
He had given up 0 Earned runs, 3 Unearned runs, and 2 hits.

Starting pitcher rated Ak, pulled for a reliever rated Dy.

This has to be unintended behavior(?). Otherwise, I just don’t understand…or we need better descriptions of the MMs…

@BigDog1953 are you using the Replay feature or are you doing your own thing?

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

The 1928 Yankees surprisingly split their six game series with the 1952 Yankees after winning the first three games.

George Pipgras pitched a two-hit shutout in Game One for a 8-0 win. Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and Bob Meusel homered back-to-back-to back in a four run 5th inning for a 7-1 win in Game Two. After losing 8-3 in Game Three, the '52 Yankees won Game Four 10-3. Joe Collins went 3-5 with four RBI. They scored seven runs in the 1st. inning of Game Five and cruised to a 12-5 win. It looked like Pipgras would suffer his first loss, as the '28 Yankees trailed 3-2 in the 9th. But Ruth homered to tie the game. The defense let them down in the bottom of the inning as they committed back to back errors with two outs, leading to a walk-off single by Yogi Berra for the win.

Mickey Mantle leads the '52 Yankees in hitting at .308 with 19 home runs, 106 RBI, 106 runs scored, 16 triples, and a .919 OPS. Hank Bauer is hitting .302 with 22 home runs, 93 RBI, and 76 runs scored. Gene Woodling is hitting .293 with 109 runs scored and 78 RBI. Joe Collins is hitting .279 with 32 home runs, 130 RBI, 90 runs scored, and 11 triples. Berra is hitting .243 with 27 home runs, 95 RBI and 107 runs scored. Allie Reynolds is 19-9 with a 2.54 ERA.

Lazzeri raised his average to .355 with 10 home runs, 55 RBI, 64 runs scored, 11 triples, and a 1.017 OPS. Gehrig raised his average to .333 while driving in eight runs in the series to give him 73 to go with 12 home runs, 59 runs scored, and a 1.027 OPS. Earle Combs hit .407 in the series to raise his average to .333 with 10 triples, 79 runs scored, and a .930 OPS. Ruth’s average dropped to .315 but he hit three home runs with seven RBI in the series to give him 29 home runs, 76 RBI, 85 runs scored and a 1.193 OPS. Meusel hit .429 in the series to raise his average to .269 with 69 RBI. Pipgras is now 12-0 with a 2.64 ERA. Waite Hoyt is 11-0 with a 1.59 ERA. Herb Pennock is 9-1 with a 3.03 ERA. That’s a combined 32-1 with a combined 2.38 ERA when any of those three pitchers start. The '28 Yankees will face the 63-69 2009 Yankees in the next series.

I would love better play-by-play commentary in the Master Game. It’s the only area where the Basic Game is much better.

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.

@TSBL Logically, it should be all runners. But maybe at that level, in that league, it’s only the winning run counts. Who knows?

okay cool thank you! that answers both of my questions. My fielding rating was too high for both teams. And after playing apba go I was pretty sure there was only a dice roll for the batter. Thanks for explaining that now I can get into the game!

Where do you go to start a trade transaction on the website? Please refresh my memory, it’s been awhile.

I’ve seen some of the footage. It looks great! We were down there getting footage for our documentary and it was such a blast to meet so many great people.
