Some of this is going to be confusing; just realize that this game is highly customizable and comes generic "right out of the box." Download and read the manual (or at least skim it to know what is possible and covered, then read the sections that you need).

1. As commissioner, you can edit your Baltimore ballpark to be called Camden Yards, have the exact seating capacity and dimensions, and even import a picture of it as the background when you play there.

2. Yes, certain cities are missing from the weather.txt database. It is a text file and if Baltimore is missing, it can be entered in there (perhaps copying the line for a nearby city like Washington DC) and then the weather database can be re-imported.

3. That's a good sign; it means your system is fast enough for the game at this point. They only put those hints in there to read while the game pauses to load or process something. As your game goes on in time or you build larger leagues, you will get enough time to read them, I think. Also if you sim long periods of time.

4. Click the Auto Play button (the baseball on the menu bar, not the baseball in the lower right). That will give you the option to sim to certain dates in the season. If you don't want to be interrupted, you need to turn off some of the options to interrupt auto-play for certain reasons (such as receiving trade offers).

5. Look for the option to export report to external browser that appears in many screens. If not available, you can always do what I do and hit the Print Screen key and copy from Clipboard to Word.

Again, these are very simple answers just to let you know that there are some to your questions. The actual "how-to" would take too long for a post; download the manual for specifics.
