1969 SOM AsPlayed Replay and more

This blog started in 2011 with my attempt to manage the 1969 Detroit Tigers to an AL Championship. Just finished my 1987 asplayed replay (using SOM Baseball 2013 with the cards). As always I managed the Detroit Tigers and succeeded in winning the World Series. 1987 was put on hold while I 'played along' with the 2013 MLB season, so it took over a year to complete. In the 'Favorite sites/links' section are blogs for other seasons I've done: 1911, 1934, 1950, 1971 and more. (View blog fullscreen)

1969 AL Standings as of July 1

July 1, 1969

After playing around .500 the 1st 2 months of the season, the Detroit Tigers turned in the best record in MLB during the month of June. Detroit is now 2.5 games behind the AL East leading Baltimore Orioles. The Minnesota Twins have opened up a 4 game lead over the Oakland Athletics in the AL West. The 2 teams had been in a virtual deadlock all season long with no other apparent challengers in the division.

1969 NL Standings as of July 1st

July 1, 1969

The Chicago Cubs had the best record in the NL during the month of June and continue to lead the East. The Pittsburgh Pirates were able to keep pace with the Cubs with a good month themselves. In the NL West the Atlanta Braves faltered a bit in June, but the Houston Astros were the only team to gain any ground on them during the month.

June 29, 1969 Detroit at Baltimore Game 2

The Baltimore Orioles were able to salvage the last game of their 4 game series against the Detroit Tigers by winning a wild, back and forth battle 11-8. The win prevented the Tigers from sweeping the series and increased the Orioles division lead to 2.5 games. Baltimore mounted a 16 hit attack against Detroit's pitchers but the Tigers kept coming back. The lead changed hands 5 times before Jim Hardin got the win with some good work out of the bullpen and Eddie Watt closed out the game for his 10th save of the season.

June 29, 1969

The Detroit Tigers defeated the Baltimore Orioles in a dramtic 9th inning finish today 4-1.

Baltimore starter Mike Cuellar was sailing along with a 3 hitter and a 1-0 lead into the 9th when the defense completely let him down. Two 2-base errors allowed the Tigers to tie the game. Then Tom Tresh doubled to give Detroit the lead and Ike Brown, batting .129, hit a 2-run homer to finish the scoring for Detroit. Don McMahon came on to close out the game in the bottom of the 9th and picked up his 8th save of the season.
The win is the 3rd straight for Detroit in this 4 game series in Baltimore and moves them within 1.5 games of the Orioles. The series will conclude with the 2nd game of today's doubleheader later this afternoon.

In a great finish the Detroit Tigers came back in the top of the ninth and


held on to win over the Baltimore Orioles by a score of 4 to 1 at Memorial


Stadium.


 


Detroit had the winning rally in the 9th inning when they came up with 4 runs


on 2 hits.  The big moment was provided by Ike Brown who silenced the stadium


when he cleared the fences for a two-run home run.  Detroit had only 5 hits


for the afternoon.  


 


The win went to Fred Lasher(2-3) who allowed no runs in 1 inning. Don McMahon


preserved the game for Lasher, recording his his 8th.  Mike Cuellar(9-4) was


the loser.  It was a tough loss for him as he did not allow an earned run in


his 8 and 1/3 innings of work.  


 


After the game, it took a long while before Earl Weaver emerged from his


office.  In a subdued tone he answered only a couple of questions.  He


concluded with, 'Fellows, sorry I'm not in a very talkative mood this


afternoon, as I think you'll understand.  I'm sure you'll find the banter a


lot more light-hearted over in the Detroit locker room.'
