WOW awesome news!

@TSBL got it. Cool, thanks. Yes, I do remember looking at the different charts.

Great additions!

Awesome. Pitcher fatigue should be the next mountain to climb. I worked out my own charts which have a fairly realistic play feel. Based on the pitcher’s historic innings pitched in a typical game, number of batters faced and runs allowed in the game being played.

Thanks for all you do !

Just had another perfect example where the Advanced Fielding option accurately came into play. With the '69 Twins clinging to a one-run lead after eight innings, I replaced 3B Harmon Killebrew (3) with light-hitting Frank Quilici (4) for the ninth. Quilici then made a big defensive play that Killebrew would not have made had he stayed in the game. Twins win by a run. I love the added strategy now at play here. Just like in real-life games.

trying out APBAGo and season replays, seems pretty cool. However, I had a hitter get a PRN 16 with bases empty and the CF was a 2. The APBAGo result was single + E8. I do have advanced fielding on, but with a fielding two OFer that should just be a single. Am I missing something?

[RandySteinman]

@Fouts Totally agree. With a CF(2), that should be a Single only, with advanced fielding on. I will try to recreate that exact scenario sometime soon and see if I get the same result as you.

[RandySteinman]

@Fouts I think you must simply have had a glitch. I just set up a similar scenario to see what would happen. Bases empty with an OF(2) playing Center Field (Bell). And leadoff hitter Dave Philley’s PRN of 16 resulted in only a single. No error.

same got single no error
