Strat-O-Matic: ’62 Giants vs. ’54 Giants

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!

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

Stay tuned!

1971: Giants Replay, Game 15

While I did play a game from 1917 on New Years Day, I have a few more games from that day (April 17, 1917)  to get through before posting the daily scores.

Technically that was the first game I played in 2020, though this is the first result that I’m posting.

Final from Candlestick Park:

Juan Marichal got shelled, and the bullpen didn’t fare any better.
