Cubbies, Williams Take Advantage of Reds' Control Problems

 

At the end of the day, the Cincinnati Reds had almost three times the hits the Chicago Cubs did (13 to Chicago's 5), but the Cubs would go on to win the ballgame, 7-2. During the 3rd & 5th innings particularly, the Cubs had the right hit at the right time, as the Reds' Jim O'Toole allowed 5 of his 6 walks allowed during those innings (his other walk was an intentional walk to Ron Santo in the 1st). It was during the 8th inning where the Cubs put the game away.

Up 4-1, with runners on 1st & 2nd with 2 outs, Billy Williams smacked a 3-run homer off Reds' relief pitcher Jim Brosnan.

The Reds' Frank Robinson collected 4 hits in a losing effort. 

Walk-off Win for Expansion Senators in 1961 BallStat Project

  

With my new introduction to BallScore/BallStat, my first game was a memorable one, a walk-off win for the expansion Washington Senators, with a game-winning hit by pinch-hitter Harry Bright. The Senators' Dick Donovan allowed only 3 hits through 11 solid innings.

No Longer a BallStat Virgin

Hello everybody, 

I just lost my BallStat virginity, and wished that I had gone all the way much sooner!  😂

It took me a little bit, but the more I did it, the better I got, and the more I knew what I was doing....

So I decided I will share my experience by playing with the 1961 MLB Replay.

I am in the middle of other projects, and I am pondering on some of them if I want to go back and record by using the BallStat, or do half-and-half on my AGBA Galaxy League, etc etc

But for this 1961 MLB Replay, and future projects that I start after this point, I will definitely do BallScore/BallStat.

You should all give it a try, this will save me so much trouble, and make me able to do the games without all the frustration of stat-keeping, you can print the stats, store the stats... all you do for the most part, is record the game like you would on your scorecard.

Peace and love, and plenty of sixty-sixes

Coexist,
