Here I'll be posting the latest highlights, scores, and stories from my 1970 Major League replay. I'll be using the Diamond Mind Baseball sim v10, using actual line-ups and transactions.
While the 1950s are commonly referred to as the "Golden Age" of baseball, and they might have been if you were a fan of one of the New York teams that dominated the decade. Boring as hell for fans of any other team. The true Golden Era, in my humble opinion, has to be the 1970s. Was there ever a decade full of exciting teams, colorful personalities (not to mention colorful uniforms... yes, I'm looking at you Oakland, Pittsburgh, and Houston)... and groovy hair? Yup, I just used groovy. It was also the decade when I first fell in love with baseball, which might have much to do with my fondness for the era. It was the epic World Series in 1975 that first turned my attention to baseball, and then the "Year of the Bird" the following season hooked me for good.
It is my goal to replay the entire decade season-by-season, and perhaps take it into the 80s to re-live the building of my favorite team's champion ball club of 1984. Time will tell. Until then, I hope you enjoy my efforts, and will continue to follow along as the project grows. Peace!
