League facts

Sims

Every house league’s sims, on each league’s own clock

Teams

How many teams the league has. Every team plays once each game-day, so this sets how many games are played each game-day.

Game times

Whether each of a sim’s games gets its own first pitch through the day, or they all land at the sim time.

  • All at the sim time

    Every game of a sim is played at the sim time

    No house league · Start your own →

  • Spread through the dayThis league

    A sim’s game-days split the time until the next sim. Games start one after another, never between 1:00 and 10:00 AM league time.

    20 house leagues →

Live games

Whether games play out pitch by pitch in real time or land all at once.

Missed sims

What happens when a sim is missed, for example while the league is paused.

  • Catch upThis league

    Missed sims play 10 minutes apart until the league is back on schedule

    20 house leagues →
  • Skip

    Missed sims are dropped; the schedule picks up at the next sim

    No house league · Start your own →

Schedule

The preset a league is built from. It sets when the league sims, how many game-days each sim plays, and how long a season is.

House leagues shift these times by up to a few hours, so finals land all through the day; each league shows its own times.

The 1986 season

1986 baseball: artificial turf, stolen bases and starters who finished what they began. Every player from that season, in the run environment they actually played in.

Mid-1980s baseball ran on speed and contact: stolen bases, artificial turf and starters who often finished their own games. Roger Clemens struck out 20 in a game that April, and Wade Boggs hit .357 to win another batting title.

Player ratings come from Retrosheet play-by-play. Clubs are shown by the game’s own team names; see credits.
