Awhile back, I grabbed a copy of David Krell’s book 1962: Baseball and America in the Time of JFK. In pouring through the pages, I became nostalgic for what I feel was an easier time in American history. It was this book that got me to thinking about playing the ’62 NL season (with Strat-O-Matic, of course) just to see if I could pilot the Mets to the same 40-120 record (or worse). I recently finished the second month of that season and collated stats through the end of May for all of you. Therefore, this link will take you to my stats! You can check out numbers on your favorite team and see how your favorite stars of yesteryear are doing.
Are you involved in any replays or projects with your favorite tabletop baseball game? You should share that fun with all of us! Get in touch with our committee and find out how you can become a contributor to this blog, too.
