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 at the All Star break

July 21, 1969

The Baltimore Orioles and Minnesota Twins lead their respective divisions as baseball breaks for the All Star game being held in the nation's capital this year. Baltimore is back on top of the AL East after a brief time in 2nd place behind the Detroit Tigers earlier in the month. The Tigers have fallen 5.5 games behind the Orioles. They seem to really be missing their 2nd baseman Dick McAuliffe, who had surgery on his knee and is expected to be out the rest of the season. Since McAuliffe went down the Tigers have gone 2-6. The Washington Senators continue to impress and find themselves tied for 2nd with Detroit. The Minnesota Twins still sit on top of the AL West and have increased their lead over 2nd place Oaklland to 7 games. Every other team in the West are far out of the pennant race.
