Here is the 3rd Annual Edward John Coyle Jr. Memorial Tournament field. Tourney begins Thursday October 3rd on what would be my dad's 73rd birthday. Some teams of note. 1951 Giants, Bobby Thompson's famous HR falls on the exact birthday of my dad. The Giants are in the tournament every year.

@RuthODay @scooter @olliethewobbly @AlexanderRaine7 @APBAreplay @YusufToropov

Last year's winner the 1951 Dodgers are back as are the runner-up 1975 Boston Red Sox. Dave Winfield is in every tournament as he shares my dad's birthday. Dave had his last hurrah on the 1995 Indians squad.

Kind of sad to see Plesac’s numbers, he’s a sentimental fave.

He had personality. One game when he was with the Jays he snuck away from the bullpen and put on a groundskeeper uniform. During the 5th inning smoothing of the infield dirt he took the first base cutout/patch (this was of the time when the Skydome had astroturf).

All the while, Plesac is chatting with Otis Nixon, trying to distract him from the infield warm-up.

Plesac left with the grounds crew and then snuck back to the bullpen.

After the inning, Nixon comes back to the dugout, kind of astonished: “We’ve got a groundskeeper who looks just like Plesac!”

Tough tournament with a single elimination format. 95 Maddux might be the best pitcher in the tournament. Really tough draw.

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

When I saw Maddux with the W, I just kind of shrugged because… Maddux.

At least it was him that knocked out the Expos and not someone like a Clemens pitching. So there’s that.

@RuthODay @tabletopmania @olliethewobbly @AlexanderRaine7 @APBAreplay @YusufToropov Les Expos will be returning in my sim that I'll be running soon; waiting to get the beefier processor to run the game properly. This is the promotion/relegation league that I came up with. It's insanely extensive because I'm not obsessive at all, not me.
