Did we have anyone die tragically at an early age like Addie Joss? While it's fun to note similarities and create a similar, but different timeline, I guess it doesn't have to mirror RL that closely.

Well, I don't mirror stuff like Cochrane's beanball incident only because I'd have to injure someone... I wanted to replicate Doc's injury because it was historically significant... And I was lucky enough to have a good OF have a career ending injury that year, so I simply wove my story around it...
But yes, I'd like to mirror RL as closely as possible... so, please post any significant happenings from 1939 on (prefereably in
the "go-live" thread) and I'll do my best to get them in....

LOL... I have a feeling we'll have some GM's-to-be pulling their hair out by the time we finally get to 1946... I bet there will be a wacky trade at the '45 deadline that sends one of you reeling!!
