The Return

Posted on by

Baseball resumes tomorrow, July 16th, with a triple-header:

Ball Park Baseball 1971: Game 47, Expos @ Giants

Payoff Pitch Baseball 1921: Game 46, Giants @ Pirates

Inside Pitch 1988, Game 1: Mets @ Expos

I’m replaying the first season replay that I ever attempted, the 1988 New York Mets season, using Inside Pitch.  I asked for and got a copy of the latest rules and charts, so I figured that with would be a good time to take that game out for a spin again.

And yes, I plan to get back to the 1917 season soon.

Stay tuned!

1978, er, 1988: Giants, er, Mets Replay

I was about to start a 4th full season team replay, with the 1978 SF Giants, until I realized that I had already started a 1977 SF Giants replay.  That’s too close, even for me.

What to do, what to do.

And then I remember my original plan of re-replaying my first ever sports replay, with the 1988 New York Mets.

Sure, let’s add the 1947 49ers replay, and put the 1967 Warriors replay back on the schedule.

Stay tuned!

In Progress, Revision to the Revised Revision of the Revision

The main change is putting the 1967 Warriors on hold, along with the 1988 Mets (revisited) replay.  I anticipate playing a soccer game with PSV soon, and hopefully starting basketball and hockey in the coming weeks.

Stay tuned!

Gooden ’85 – Update

Posted on by

I spent way too much time Monday night trying to get the damn BallScore/BallStat programs to get this replay back together, but it simply wouldn’t do it.

The last issue that I had after figuring out how to force the played games scoresheets to export was that it kept showing the Phillies with 2 wins even though they had only played and won 1 game against the Mets.

I tried removing just that game via BallStat, and when it was reimported, it gave the Mets a 2-3 record even though this was game 3 of the replay.

Arrrgh.

So I went and reset the league and then completely deleting it and the auto backup from my PC.  A new 1985 Dwight Gooden replay has been created, rosters have been imported and adjusted with starting lineups, and tonight I will once again attempt to play 1-2 games from this replay.

Stay tuned!

Gooden ’85

BallScore still refuses to play nice with this replay.

I replayed the first two games and they were not compiled correctly, both games treated as the first game of the replay.  The Mets (and Gooden) won one and lost one, yet the box scores showed the Mets and Gooden as 0-1 and 1-0 in each.

The records should have show 1-1 for both in the second game.

I’m not sure what I should do at this point.  Abandon this replay?  Is there something I’m missing in the settings for this one?

I know the program is still working correctly, the last game I played for the 1971 Giants replay was the 7th game, and the Giants have a 5-2 record.

Very frustrating.
