Orval Overall came over to Washington in an offseason deal with Brooklyn. For the first time in his career, he’s a #1 pitcher, and he’s the biggest reason for Washington’s return to the World Series. The Senators are Overalls 5th team, and he hasn’t hit 30 yet!!

George_Bell · 01-14-2014, 04:31 PM

I forgot to take a screen shot from the World Series screen, but the New York Giants were able to take the series in 5 over Washington.

Shoeless Joe Jackson finished the series with a .524 OBP. They couldn’t get him out.

Wow, shades of 1908 - two pennant races that come down the final day. And poor Jack Chesbro. Is he always fated to pitch like a world-beater, only to lose the final, crucial game?

Wow, 2 unearned runs in the 7th, and a wild pitch in the ninth. This is not the way you want to lose a do or die game!!

It figures though, that Chesbro has remained a Pirate in my game. It's weird to say a team with 2 championships was a disappointment, but they absolutely have been. Easily the most talent squad, these Pirates should have way more titles, and have blown it on several occasion.

Jack Chesbro, having his finest season, blows the pennant on the last game of the year. It matches up to this Pirates team. They tend to blow it!

I'd keep an eye on the Giants if I were you. Having Shoeless Joe Jackson and Chick Gandil on the same club is just asking for trouble.

1910-11 Offseason News and Notes

Cy Young has finally decided that enough is enough. He retires from baseball at age 43. After Cy tore his flexor tendon in his elbow during spring training 1902, he was never the same. He won the AL pitcher of the year award in 1901. Cy only made 71 more MLB starts. He had a great career, but injuries really derailed them. Here’s a look at his final career numbers.

Old Pete, better known as Grover Cleveland Alexander was the 1^st pick in the 1910 draft. He is now a member of the Cleveland Naps. Here is the 1^st round.

1911 Preview

Highlanders legend Ed Delahanty lost his starting spot to Shano Collins, who hit .241 last season. This really hurts Big Ed’s chances of reaching 4000 hits.

If Boston Rustlers Ty Cobb, and Gavvy Cravath have monster seasons like that, the Rustlers
will have the best team in baseball.

Top Player

Ty Cobb, it’s gonna be like this for a while.

Top Pitcher

Walter Johnson has officially arrived, and he’s the top pitcher in baseball.

HAHAHAHA, I'll keep a close eye if they make the world series again for anything suspicious!

1911 Regular Season

June 13^th. Devastating news out of Chicago. Walter Johnson has torn an elbow ligament, that will keep him out of action for at least 10 months. This is the type of injury that can change careers. Johnson, only 23, was baseball’s best pitcher coming into this season. It will be a long time before we know if he can get his career back on track.

August 24^th. More injury news. Shoeless Joe Jackson, of the 1^st place NY Giants, is hit in the head with a pitch. Jackson was knocked unconscious, and stretchered off the field. Doctors are saying Jackson’s season is over, and they won’t know the severity of the injury until sometime in the new year. Jackson was hitting .386 at the time, and the Giants led the Rustlers by 2 games in the National League.

It was quite the season in Boston. Ty Cobb became the first player since Nap Lajoie’s record setting 1901 season to hit .400. Ty ended up hitting .410. Problem is, he only played 108 games. Ty has been a bit injury prone during his career. He’s only played more than 126 three times in his 8 years. Maybe a full season of Ty Cobb gets Boston back to the series.

Gavvy Cravath, sets the new HR in a single season record with 28! He also knocks in 143 runs, which is only 4 behind Cap Anson’s 1887 record.

With Cobb and Cravath doing such great things, the Rustlers still miss out on a world series trip, and we will get to watch the first battle of New York! Here are the AL and NL leaders.

George_Bell · 01-17-2014, 03:40 PM

Without Shoeless Joe Jackson, the battle of NY maybe one sided. Jackson’s replacement, Danny Moeller, is a .202 career hitter. The Giants are also missing front line pitcher Casey Patten and starting catcher Yip Owens. The Highlanders are healthy.

George_Bell · 01-17-2014, 03:42 PM

1911 World Series

That’s about as dominant a team can be in the World Series. The Highlanders outscore the Giants 28-5. Oddly enough, the Giants held leads in three of the four games.

1911-12 Offseason News and Notes

Ed Delahanty only played in 37 games during the season. 17 hits in 61 at bats. He can still hit, but time is running out in his chase for 4000. He’s days away from turning 44.

Dutch Leonard, Wally Schang and Cy Willams all join the majors this year. The Red Sox select Reb Russell first overall, a pitcher I’ve never heard of.

1912 Season Preview

Some wide open races this year. It looks like there is a good amount of parody in the AL.

I'd love to see a race between the Giants and the Braves.

MLB Top Player

Shoeless Joe takes the reigns from Ty Cobb this year, right after Ty has a career year. Interesting.

MLB Top Pitcher

Walter Johnson has 1 week left on the DL. He’ll rehab a bit in the minors and hopefully be back in the Cubs lineup by May.

George_Bell · 01-20-2014, 03:39 PM

1912 Regular Season

A set back delayed the return of the "Big Train", but Walter Johnson returned the the Cubs on June 1^st. He threw 120 pitches, and all 9 innings in a 13-2 win over the Braves.

Cincinnati needed to beat Pittsburgh on the final day of the season to clinch, but Noodles Hahn did infact get the win over Jack Chesbro 8-1, to clinch the pennant. Another Pittsburgh collapse, they had the league lead half way through September, and a win over the Reds on the last day would have forced a playoff.

Cleveland makes their first ever World Series, while the Reds try to win their first, having lost to the Highlanders twice.

Walter Johnson returns in great form, while Ty Cobb hits over .400 for the second straight season.
