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.

Thanks! Nope! You sort of answered my question! I’ll give the master game a try! Is it pretty easy to play? I’m sure it walks you through most of it.

Thanks

Tim

The MG Micromanagers aren’t available for autoplay. I believe that is why the Micromanager Challenge mode isn’t functioning as well.

@APBA-GO-Jeremy Thank you so much Jeremy!

Best Wishes

I would be interested in the replay side is trade tool.

Anytime something wonky like that happens, I just chalk it up to being a weird play.
In this case, perhaps the pitch was in the dirt and rolled about 10-15 feet from Grandal, the Catcher.
Rogers, the runner on third, assumed he could score.
He guessed wrong… as Grandal retrieved the ball and got back to the plate in time to make the tag on a close play.

This is kind of what I’m planning to do with some minor adjustments to the lineups. My question is how do I set up the games? As new games? I have been following the continuous regular season games as per the 1972 schedule but now that is done so just asking to ensure I can set up the playoff games correctly. Thanks

thanks ,

Please note the above opening for AAAL has been filled for 2026 Season

So I just set up a game and experimented with this a bit.
As has always been the case, the reliever appears to need two things to get the first-batter upgrade:

He must have a reliever * asterisk on his pitching grade (pitchers rated as starters-only don’t get upgraded). He must face a batter hitting from the same side (ie. lefty-on-lefty or righty-on-righty).
But you probably already knew that.

Also… the upgrade does NOT appear to happen if the half-inning hasn’t begun yet. I tried making a change between innings. All the criteria was there, but the reliever did not get an upgrade for the first batter of the inning.

But as long as the half-inning has started (ie. a batter has reached base or made an out), the upgrade now appears to work EVEN IF there are none out. I believe that may be different from in the past. The GO Support people may have recently tweaked the game engine on that.
