Cubs starter Rick Rueschel was struck by a line drive and will be out for 60 days. He could return for the playoffs. The Cubs have called up Dutch Leonard.

@tabletopmania @YusufToropov @APBAreplay @cardboardkarl @AlexanderRaine7 @olliethewobbly

Still, he got a lot of good ink.

It’s a 3 dice system my dad designed, loosely based off a couple other games. Not sure what. He passed in 2020 so I can’t ask him. I’ve made some further modifications to enhance the gameplay and accuracy.

@scooter @RuthODay @olliethewobbly @AlexanderRaine7 @cardboardkarl @APBAreplay @YusufToropov
Very cool. What year are you operating this simulation in? I’d love to follow it when you start.

I actually own the 1987 version of Pursue the Pennant. I’ve only played it a few times.

@tabletopmania @scooter @olliethewobbly @AlexanderRaine7 @cardboardkarl @APBAreplay @YusufToropov

I saw an article discussing a fictitious game, All-Jewish team vs. All-Canadian team. The author gave the edge to Koufax.

Sure, for a single game it’s scary going against Koufax but over a 7-game series, I think that I’d rather have Jenkins.
