Over 10 months between games, I need to step up the pace.
Final from Candlestick Park:
Giants are still ahead of their actual record in my replay, 65-43 in real life, 69-39 in my replay.

1957: Giants Replay, Game 1
Been a while since I’ve played a) a baseball game; b) an Opening Day game; and c) Dynasty League Baseball
When I pulled the game out to play, I had forgotten that I had the 1957 season in the box, and further forgot that I had started a game and left it in the bottom of the third in Digital Diamond Baseball, which I use to keep score of these games.
Opening Day, 1957!
Final from Forbes Field:
Antonelli was doing well until the bottom of the 6th, when the Pirates scored 4 runs to take the lead.
I honestly don’t know how often I’ll come back to this replay, or even this game, as much as I like playing it, there’s just a lot of chart flipping that I don’t do in other tabletop baseball games.
Stay tuned!
1969: Pilots Replay, Game 2
1969: Pilots Replay, Game 1
1971: Giants Replay, Game 107
After 3 months, a baseball game!
Final from Candlestick Park:
Boyhood idol Chris Speier had a great day, going 2-for-4 with 2 home runs and 5 RBIs.
Because I had to sim the season up to when I switched over from Ballscore to Digital Diamond Baseball, the actual record for the Giants is 68-39 in my replay (64-43 in real life).
1977: Giants Replay, Game 6
1971: Giants Replay, Game 106
1921: Giants Replay, Game 64
1921
Now that Digital Diamond Baseball has added the 1921 season to the game, I can pretty much stop using BallScore/BallStat for my scorekeeping app.
The question now is do I continue from where I left off, like I did with the 1971 replay that started with BallScore, or do I scrap the sixty-three 1921 season games I played and start over?
Stay tuned!
2024: #LFGM Game 1
Opening Day, delayed by a day
Final from Citi Field:
In the 9th inning I went online and played Edwin Diaz’ entrance music.
It felt good to play this particular game system, it brought me back to almost 40 years ago when I replayed the 1988 Mets season.
Here’s hoping I can actually complete this one in a reasonable amount of time.
