I attempted to create a beginner's guide in Sort It Out, SI's forum here:

http://www.sortitoutsi.net/forums/in...howtopic=14022

The premise was that most American kids learned about the game by watching it with their dads and said dads explained everything as it happened? So I played a game of OOTP5, and not only explained everything that happened, but did so in mind that readers may be managing themselves, so there's some beginning strategy in there. Some links to pictures of both the OOTP5 game and to photos of baseball players to help out.

I used two real teams with a real roster pack, so newbies will have names to latch onto that they can in real life as well.

On top of it, the game I played ended up being a barnburner.
