The Table Top Sports Games of Chris Saguisag
I went back to the roots of my recent table top sports hobby, and played a game with Strat-O-Matic Baseball.
PepsiCo Park was originally constructed from inspiration I found online for Strat-O-Matic players’ dice tower/trays, yet I played very few SOM games with this park, after getting into a plethora of other baseball games, most notably Ball Park Baseball.
I had planned to do a mini-replay/project with 6 teams: 4 Giants, 1 Yankees, 1 Mets.
So here is a game with the 1962 Giants against the 1954 Giants.
Final from the Polo Grounds:
A real pitcher’s duel until the bottom of the 8th. I may have left O’Dell in too long, yeah?
I don’t know how often I’ll play this project, I haven’t even come up with a schedule.
Stay tuned!
I came up with the team names after dividing up the players into 10 teams:
Pacific Division
Corvallis Corgis
Albuquerque Dodos
Riverside Otters
Yakima Quokkas
Tuscon Meerkats
Atlantic Division
Louisville Sloths
Birmingham Baboons
Grand Rapids Lemurs
Richmond Vultures
Providence Manatees
I’ll post rosters and maybe a schedule later.
Stay tuned!
