Not too long ago, I did a loose replay of the 1984 NL playoffs with my buddy Brando. So my curiosity was piqued when I ran across this replay by Jim Dietz of the 1984 NL and AL seasons and postseason over at BoardGameGeek.
I was even more interested when I saw that Jim was a Cubs fan and further, the Chicago Cubs had won the NL Championship in his replay. Alas, this part made me cringe:
World Series: Detroit sweeps Chicago 4 games to 0. Sigh.
Jim’s replay summary includes everything that makes this kind of thing fun to read. Not just stats but season awards, highlights, and since he obviously was a Cubs fan, a comparison between replay and real life stats of the Cubs lineup.
Great work, Jim!
