I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • The Retro Sheet Retro News 9 Official Publication of Retrosheet, Inc
    June 2, 1999 Inside: Volume 6, Number 2 Game Acquisitions 2 Nominations Sought 3 Strange Plays 5 The Retro Sheet Retro News 9 Official Publication of Retrosheet, Inc. There are two topics for this column: game logs and data release policy. The game log story is really just an up- date from last time. Since then Tom Ruane has done a lot of work getting the logs organized. He has had help from Mark Armour who is filling in some of the gaps, especially umpires. In addition David Vincent has written a program that will make access to these logs easy and logical. All that is left is to get the logs posted on the web site, which we hope will be accomplished very soon, perhaps even before you read this notice. The Retrosheet Board of Directors explicitly gave permission to the President of the organiza- tion to decide when a given data file was ready to release. Up to this point, I have been very conservative and we have only released files that had undergone exhaustive proofing. For ex- ample, totals generated from our play by play files agree to the greatest extent possible with the official totals in all batting and pitching categories. For those cases (very few) where our numbers differ from the official totals, we have detailed descriptions of the source of these dif- ferences. The logic behind this slow approach is that I thought it would be damaging to our credibility to release one ver- sion of a file without detailed proofing and then to replace it later after we had made corrections.

ARTCRAFT ENGRAVI HS LTD. (416) 787-0687 (MU) 4*>'> 6840 LONDON TBRONTO TEAM MESSAGE The theme for 1977 is "HAVE FUN & ENJOY YOURSELF AT THE BALLPARK". This goes for the fans as well as those with designated duties, umpires, and ball players. We of London should realize that we have one of the best settings to enjoy baseball in the world. PLEASE, take just a couple of minutes to look at the beauty before you. After you set this presidence you will enjoy yourself at the ball­ park everytime you return, no matter the event on the field or the outcome. From the enclosed stands you have before you a beautifully manicured infield, with a uniformly, fenced outfield. [Not the most practical, but definately solid.Oomph I] Beyond the left field fence are a row of evergreens, that I think give the ball-park THAT extra touch of beauty. [ Notice all the different greens.] Let your eyes rise just for a moment out of the ball-park. You are now looking at ELDON HOUSE and the London skyline. With a little imagination this could be a hide­ away in the mountains. Just before you return to the ball-park gaze into the endless blue sky with the odd white cloud. [Drift for a moment.] You are now at peace and ready to gently return to a now romantically lit ball-park for a couple of enjoyable, leasure hours of that wonderful invention "BASEBALL".

Disappointments were many. Fan support was not as great as we had hoped, but the team didn't do as well as was expected. One thing can be said for certain, it wasn't a dull season. Most games were filled with exciting plays, good hitting and close scores. We had one of the greatest pitchers of modern baseball on our team. He never let his team mates or the management down at any time and probably played his last game of baseball here at Labatt Park. No matter what others may say of this man I know of no one in this city who can say anything but a sincere thank you, for you always gave your very best ... Dennis Dale Mclain. Now on to another season, new players, new friends, exciting plays and who knows perhaps a championship team, for this is what the game of baseball is all about. - " GO GET EM MAJORS."

Stating the obvious, the mid-1800s were much different than today. So much has changed and we see ourselves as somehow different from the people that lived then and, thus, removed from the era. It’s not just the advances in medicine, science and computers, the automobile, tall buildings, electronics, digital communication and the 24-7-365 instantaneous media. It is also true of the sport – base ball, then a two-word phrase. Even though it was already being called the ‘national game’ and played with gusto far and wide few baseball enthusiasts today care to delve into the game before 1900, much less the genesis of the sport decades earlier.
