1930: Giants Replay, Game 1

Posted on by

Oh look, another replay begins.

I picked this season for an unplayed game system that I chose to check out a few months back, and even picked up a book to learn more about it.

Final from the Polo Grounds:

Played this one with Season Ticket Baseball, using the basic rules, and it was pretty fun, especially the 4-run rally in the 8th.

This was mostly a chance for me to learn how to play this game, and I like it.  We’ll see how far I get into this replay before finishing any of the others.

I dug out my copies of Ultra Quick Football and Ultra Quick Soccer last week, which then gave me the idea to pick up Ultra Quick Baseball, since it’s supposed to be a way to quickly sim the rest of the games in a single team replay.

I’m going to try it with the 1921 and 1971 season replays that I’m currently playing (though stalled due to my own indifference toward what to play lately).

It’ll probably take as long to sim all the games up to the point where I am in those seasons as it took to play those games.  I hope not.

Stay tuned!

I decided to play catchup today on my 1921 Giants season replay, which, because of COVID, I should have been finished before the 100th anniversary of the season, but for some reason I never committed to finish this one or the 1971 season, on it’s 50th anniversary.

Heck, I should have had these finished in 2020.

And I played Game 54 back in February of this year.

We’ll see how it goes from here, but I’d really like to finish one of these replays by the end of the actual 2022 baseball season.
