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 September 16th

The 1969 regular season is in its final weeks and the Detroit Tigers have not been able to close the gap from the top spot in the AL East. The division leading Baltimore Orioles are 4.5 games ahead of Detroit and their magic number is now at 11. The Minnesota Twins magic number is down to 2 in the AL West. They could clinch the division title with a win in tonights game against the Oakland Athletics.

Howard enjoyed a big evening at the plate.  He popped a two-run clout over the


fence in the 1st inning, cleared the fences for a two-run home run in the 6th


inning and ripped a one-base hit in the 7th inning.  Washington had 16 hits


for the night while New York had 8.  


 


Dick Bosman(12-7) allowed no runs in 7 and 1/3 innings, and picked up the


victory. Mel Stottlemyre(14-15) was tagged with the loss.  He allowed a few


too many baserunners giving up 9 hits and 2 walks in 4 innings.  


 


'Howard led the way - we just jumped on his back and let him take us,' Bosman


said. 'I'm glad I don't have to face him. I'm glad he's on my team.'

Det. at KC September 3, 1969

The Detroit Tigers put on a devastating offensive display in Kansas City tonight, banging out 22 hits on the way to defeating the Royals 15-6. Tiger starter Denny McLain had one of his poorer outings of the season but his teamates run support allowed him to pick up his 19th win.
Detroit heads home for a big 4 game series against the 1st place Baltimore Orioles starting tomorrow night. The Tigers now trail the Birds by 3.5 games so this series looms large.

WEB GEMS- Bot 5th: Norm Cash robbed Mike Fiore of a base hit.
 
Jim Northrup launched 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI as the dominant Detroit Tigers
defeated the Kansas City Royals by a score of 15 to 6 at Municipal
Stadium.
 
Northrup was a seemingly constant irritant to the hometown fans as he provided
much of the offense for the visitors.  He lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' in
the 6th inning and popped a two-run clout over the fence in the 9th inning.
Detroit provided plenty of action in the 6th inning which saw them score 8
runs on 7 hits and the 9th inning when they had 4 runs on 5 hits.  Detroit
ended up with 22 hits for the game while Kansas City had 9.  
 
Denny McLain(19-7) picked up the victory, allowing 6 runs in 7 innings. Mike
Hedlund(4-7) took the loss.  He was knocked around, surrendering 6 runs in 5
innings.
