’21 vs. ’71

Posted on by

I have now played more games (45) in my 1971 San Francisco Giants replay than I’ve played games (44) in my 1921 New York Giants.

I started the 1921 replay 7 years ago.

I started the 1971 replay 2 years ago.

My goal is to finish one of these replays by the end of the year, 50 or 100 years after the given season.

I’ll consider it a bonus if I can finish both replays.

Stay tuned!

Fifty and A Hundred

Posted on by

It just occurred to me that my two current Giants season replays are 1971 and 1921.

Fifty and one hundred years ago, and 50 years apart.

Much like the 1967 and 1917 replays, one of which I had finished (1967) and the other (1917), well, I still have over 1200 games to go…

But I think it’s possible to finish one or maybe both ’71 and ’21 replays by year’s end, IF I commit to playing both more often.

We’ll see how it goes.

Stay tuned!

1921: Giants Replay, Game 34

Posted on by

Almost a year between games in this replay.  Hopefully It won’t be that long until the next one.

Final from Braves Field:

As always , it took a couple of innings to get back into the rhythm and flow of a game that I hadn’t played in a few months.

The new, printed 1921 season set is a nice upgrade from the old PDF set that I printed 6 years ago.  For one thing I think more players are included, for another a team of 1921 Negro Leaguers was included.  Not sure what I’m going to do with them yet, maybe have them play each of the MLB teams in the set.

Stay tuned!
