1959: Giants Replay

Posted on June 7, 2023 by Chris S.

Oh, who am I kidding? The 1959 replay will focus primarily on the 2nd season of baseball in San Francisco.

One difference will be the addition of a random game here and there between teams of which neither are the Giants.

I may start doing that in my other replays as well, while maintaining focus on the Giants (or the Mets, if I ever restart the 1986 or 1988 replays).

Not sure how I’ll decide which other teams to play, but I may try to dip into the American League more than the National League for these random games.

Stay tuned!
