1949 Diamond Mind Baseball Replay
I’ve been conducting a replay of the 1949 Major League Baseball season with Diamond Mind Baseball.
The rules of this replay are simple. I control the home team for every game. I play out every single game. I choose lineups for both teams for every game — and, no, I’m not using the actual lineups. I have kept real-life transactions on, and do my best to use players in a realistic manner, though I also keep an eye on their performance in the replay.
I’m also using the as-scheduled schedule, not the as-played schedule.
I’ve been uploading videos of selected games on my YouTube channel. You can find a playlist for this project here. Please note that I do not feature every game on the channel, and that all broadcasts are live and uncut. Also note that the channel is several games ahead of the blog, and will remain so in the future.

Game Recaps
Please note that I do not provide full write-ups for every single game I play. I originally was going to limit myself to one post for each replay date. However, I soon learned that there were too many close and interesting games to keep to that plan. As a result, I try to write up a recap for every single game that has a memorable story associated with it.
