NOTE: There were two All-Star Games played in 1960. As mentioned in the last post, it may be possible to duplicate that by placing the two All-Star Games into the schedule file. This year, the AL was the home team for both games. The entry for the first game would be on July 11, which is day 192. The line would be (without the quotes) "192,18,17,3". The second game goes on July 13, which is day 194, and the line would be "194,18,17,1". Again, be aware that adding the All-Star Games into the schedule file may cause problems in OOTP when those days come up. The normal recommendation is to delete any All-Star Game listed in a schedule file and instead add in the All-Star Game manually via the schedule editor in OOTP.
