Man... I see a lot of old games here but not a lot of Pursue the Pennant... the ultimate (well, I guess Dynasty League would be now)in baseball board gaming. It had the stadiums that fit inside the box, stadium effects, wild plays, and realism that was uncanny. I played 3 full seasons of PTP, San Fran 88', Toronto 90' and Minnesota 91' all of which were fantastic. I remember when Tom Browning threw a no-hitter against my Giants, and when my Twins (just like real life) took the series. I have both of those scorecards framed. I'm a bit of a strange guy when it comes to that. My girlfriend asked me why I insist on hanging them where ever I live (I'm a 22 year old college student, so I've lived in 5 different places in the last five years) and I really can't explain it. Anyway.. I love to hear these stories! Keep em coming!
