Sixties week

Forgive me for asking but being 76 I don't know what they mean when they say its sixties week. I see my Rocky Colavito card is playing better so does that mean all players who played in the sixties will play better ?

It means it is a different run environment than normal weeks. It does not mean that players whose card is from the '60s will play better.

In 1961, according to this sheet, there are more balls in play, the same amount of homers, more triples, fewer doubles, slightly more walks, fewer strikeouts, and a similar slash line to the accepted 2010 baseline for regular league play.

How does weekly Ballpark Section interact with Theme Week?

Which cuisine reins supreme?

the same way as ballpark works with a normal week: they both impact things. ballparks are all relative to everyone else's ballparks though. it's not going to change the league totals, if eveyrone is playing coors, it's like everyone is playing in the neutral park.
