The 1978 Yankees won the first two games of the their six game series with the 1998 Yankees and the last two to win the series four games to two and improve their record to 44-40. The '98 Yankees fell to 42-30.

Five of the six games were decided by three runs or less. The '78 Yankees scored five runs in the first two innings and held on for a 5-2 win. In Game Two, Mickey Rivers broke a 2-2 tie in the 9th with a two-out RBI single against Mariano Rivera for a 3-2 win. The '98 Yankees evened the series with a 6-3 win in Game Three and a 3-2, 12 inning victory in Game Four. Chad Curtis hit a two-out RBI single in the 12th for the win, spoiling Jim Beattie’s 10 strikeout outing for the '78 Yankees. It appeared the '98 Yankees would win their third straight game in Game Five, but Graig Nettles hit a walk-off two-run homer off Rivera for a dramatic come-from-behind 4-3 win for the '78 Yankees. They won the final game by the largest margin of the series, 5-1. Ron Guidry pitched a complete game and struck out nine.

Reggie Jackson leads the '78 Yankees in hitting at .328 with 25 home runs, 61 RBI, 62 runs scored, and a 1.011 OPS. Rivers is hitting .326 with 27 stolen bases. Nettles is hitting .277 with 17 home runs and 50 RBI. Guidry moved over .500 at 8-7 with a 2.45 ERA. Goose Gossage picked up a couple of more saves to give him 27 on the season with a 2.93 ERA.

Bernie Williams had his average drop to .349 with 22 home runs, 75 RBI, 61 runs scored, and a 1.072 OPS. Derek Jeter’s average dropped to .324 with 18 homers, 57 RBI, 62 runs scored, 13 stolen bases, and a .937 OPS. Paul O’Neill raised his average to .289. Tino Martinez hit his 20th home run. It was a rocky series for Rivera who picked up two saves but also two losses, including the blown save in Game Five; he is now 2-3 with 17 saves and a 2.52 ERA. The '98 Yankees will battle with the 49-41 1947 Yankees in the next series.

Yeah, just looked at the 2014 Dodgers in the APBAGO Store… and Yelich is definitely on there (when he shouldn’t be).
I would absolutely send a quick note to Support.Screenshot 2026-06-20 at 12.42.01 PM.png

In the end, I just recreated the Dodgers-Giants game by downloading the P-B-P, then inputting each dice roll as it had happened when I first played the game a few days earlier. I couldn’t wait too long, while the game was still fresh in my memory (for things like runners playing it safe, infield playing in, etc).
Everything worked out fine and, this time, the box score was added to my 1952 Replay Collection without an issue. All I can think is that I had done something wonky when setting up that particular game the first time around.

Or as a programmer like me would say, “It’s not a bug; it’s a feature!” :)

Eddie Collins keeps the As in contention helping to beat Cleveland 2 out of 3. In game 1 of the series Collins had an RBI triple in the bottom of the 9th, stole home to tie it, then got the game winning hit in the 12th to win. Following with the game winning hit in game 2. Bris Lord tried to make a play and dropped a ball crashing into the wall to allow Grover Land to score and salvage a game for the Indians. the As are 6 back of the 1st place Cubs in 3rd.

Was playing 92 were all are 0/0

Hi,

Today we deployed what we think will fix the re-roll box sticking issue.

Please let support know if you are still encountering it.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Thank you @Steve_Admin !

@TSBL The bump should be applied (possibly to the highest A, 19 or 20, I can’t remember) before the L/R adjustment is made. If the reliever is bumped for being same-handed, that is given, then the appropriate adjustment according to the batter card is made.

I’m having no delay problems, but maybe that’s because I’m only playing the WS teams.

As a retired software developer, I cannot stress enough the importance of as many details as you can when submitting a ticket. The platform, the hardware, the operating system are the bare minimum. If you’re trying to recreate the issue, be sure to take screenshots of the settings, and if you really want to be nice to the developers, a screenshot at each stage of setup would be appreciated. You would be surprised how many times something you exclude because it doesn’t seem relevant turns out to be the key.

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.)
