Instead of results the ball ended up landing at certain cordinates on the field. depending on how you had your fielders set, and their rating they'd "catch" it. Being a historical sim kind of guy their ratings were easy enough to assign to historical players.

Wow, tward13, you just brought back some memories. I had forgotten about Sherco. I had that as well. Was that the game where you had all the different stadium dimensions and if it landed outside those dimensions it was a homer?
I played Sports Illustrated as well and also played some game that had a bunch of old timers in it from different eras. Cobb, Medwick, Dean, Ruth, Gehrig, etc. I can't remember exactly what that was.
