The Houston Colt .45's

I don't see how there would be a fix for this without hard coding it, but...

When the Houston Colt .45's (old name for the Astros) appear in historical leagues, the city name is recorded as "Houston Colt" and the nickname is ".45's". Oddly, this sort of thing doesn't seem to happen with the Toronto Blue Jays or Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

I assume you've tried manually editing it? (actually, I assume no such thing, because if I did, I wouldn't've bothered to post.)

You can manually edit it to the right thing, but it changes back the next year. Of course, they only existed with that name very briefly.

This was claimed fixed for the third, as yet unreleased, patch. If you find this still to be an issue after patching, please post as such in Tech Support along with the TT number given above. Thanks.

This was regressed by the testers and sent back to the developers for review.

This was again claimed fixed for the (as yet unreleased) third patch. If after installing it you still find this to be an issue, please post as such in Tech Support along with the TT number given above. Thanks.
