1967: Giants Replay, Game 49
Final from Crosley Field:
Home runs by Tom Haller, Ollie Brown and Jim Ray Hart seal a complete game win for Gaylord Perry.
Felt good to roll a game in this replay, and especially this game system. Ball Park Baseball simply flows smoother and quicker than most of the other games that I play.
Game 50 coming up.
Stay tuned!
1984
I’m gonna try my best to finish this Gooden rookie season replay this weekend.
Truth be told, while I enjoy playing these games in general, I miss playing Ball Park Baseball. And I vowed to not to bounce around game systems unless I finish these smaller projects (less than 40 games).
So after I finish this one, it’s back to 1917 and 1967 for a while, and then I continue the John D’Acquisto rookie season replay.
Stay tuned!
Difficulty?
I find myself taking a longer time playing a game with Replay Baseball than with Ball Park Baseball.
I think it’s just a case of unfamiliarity with charts and stuff.
I like Replay’s system, I just need to get a few more games under my belt, so I don’t flip through the rules as often as I do now.
Stay tuned!

A double-header!
Final from Candlestick Park, Game 1:
Final from Candlestick Park, Game 2:
A complete game shutout, followed by a come from behind win.
The Giants are now 5-0 against the Mets this season.
More importantly, I’ve matched the real life record of the Giants at this point in the season (26-20).

To Be Honest…
Locked In
Whether it’s weekly, daily or whatever, I think I’m back in the table top sports groove, along with the other gaming that I’ve picked up along the way.
Current plans are to finish the home stand with the 1967 Giants (2 vs. Pittsburgh, 4 vs. New York) and then move on to the next full day of games in the 1917 replay (April 14, 8 games).
Along the way there will be some B-17 bomber action.
Stay tuned!
