Managing a minor-league game?

Fenway · 06-30-2009, 12:13 PM

I chose the quick-start option to manage the 2009 Washington Nationals. I'm having fun with it. But I'm wondering -- is there a way for me to pop into a minor-league dugout and manage a game or two for Syracuse or Harrisburg so that I can see up-and-coming talent in action? When I choose 'select league,' and then click the 'baseball' icon under 'league,' I only get the option to 'watch' minor-league games.

Also, a minor question, but it's bugging me: what's the logo for "options" depict?! It looks like a trophy, or a baseball on a stand, or a Rorschach test, or something. Maybe my eyes aren't decoding it right! I mean the logo you find at the bottom-left of the screen, next to the "home" icon, etc.

You can do by making yourself commissioner. There may be other ways, but that has to be the simplest.

You can watch that game or if in commissioner mode you may take over as manager for the day.

Thanks!

So does anyone know what the "options" logo depicts?
