I just played a game from my Dwight Gooden 1984 replay, but played it at the wrong venue, thinking it was a road game when it was actually a home game for the Mets.

When I was 5
1984: Dwight Gooden, Game 5
1967: Giants Replay, Games 47 & 48
Stubs
This is something that I was thinking of doing a couple of years back.
I came across a pair of ticket stubs from a Giants game from 43 years ago. Since I just happen to have the MLB season set from that year, I decided to replay this game.
Final from Candlestick Park:
2-5, run scored, 5 RBI, HR
I plan to do this more often, as I come across ticket stubs around the house.
Stay tuned!
1967: Giants Replay, Games 45 & 46
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).
1974: John D’Acquisto, Game 6
May 4th, 1974
Welcome to Parc Jarry!
A head-to-head match up between two rookies…
Final from Parc Jarry:
The Giants’ bats come alive as D’Acquisto goes 6 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits, with a pair of strikeouts, for the win.
D’Acquisto: win, record now 3-2 (actual result: loss, record: 2-2)
Next game: May 8, 1974: John D’Acquisto vs. Jon Matlack @ Shea Stadium
Stay tuned!
4 Years Ago
According to Facebook, today is the anniversary of the day that I received PLAAY Games’ History Maker Baseball in the mail.
That game, in addition to Strat-O-Matic Baseball, set me on my current hobby of table top sports.
I suppose I’ll pull that one out and play a game or two of the 1974 John D’Acquisto rookie season replay.
Stay tuned!
