El Inmortal, Indeed
Had to share this here for those not following my Everyman League save, which is a dev-only universe using the mod but also featuring fictional players in a 48-team league.
Just finished the 1929 playoffs, and Martin Dihigo certainly lived up to his sobriquet, El Inmortal.
Having already posted an 18-11 / 2.42 record and hitting .277 with 32 homers and 105 RBI (more than 16 WAR combined) in the regular season, Martin had one of the best post-seasons I have ever seen, either real or simulated.
After winning the MVP in each of the first two playoff series (pitching a 1-hitter in the first of those), and with his club Montana now in this league's equivalent of the WS, MD pitched a pair of 7+ inning no-decisions and hit .375 (12-for-32) with 5 homers including the walkoff winner in the 11th inning of Game 7.
The two sets of stats at the very bottom are his playoff composites. Unbelievable.
