Final from the Polo Grounds:

A pitcher’s duel, with Pee Wee Reese driving in the only runs in the game for the Dodgers.

This is only the second Payoff Pitch Baseball game that I played using the Fast Action Cards instead of dice.  Oddly enough, the first game I played was this exact same game, but scored by hand in a pre-printed score book that was part of the rewards for the Kickstarter campaign for the 1948 season cards.  Supposedly there was an issue with that score book, so I put off continuing this replay until I got a replacement, which never came.

I decided to restart this replay since I was only one game in.

Stay tuned!
