Here's the stratomatic baseball league I'm doing right now. LOW is on hold. I'm using the Hall of Fame and the Negro League sets, playing card and dice. The teams are setup how they are in the computer game.
Negro League is divided into four teams: (home ballpark)
Kansas City Monarchs (Muehlebach Field)
Detroit Stars (Mack Park)
Pittsburgh Crawfords Greenlee Field)
Washington Homestead Grays Griffith Stadium)
The HOF set is made up of eight teams by era of baseball: (home ballpark)
Pre-World War II National League (Ebbetts Field)
Pre-World War II American League Yankee Stadium)
Post World War II National League (Wrigley Field)
Post World War II American League Fenway Park)
Turn of the Century (Polo Grounds)
Dead Ball Era (Shibe Park)
Old Timers (Baker Bowl)
Left Outs (Crosley Field)
Let me know if you want to see the rosters.
This is a round robin tournament, best of seven game series.

Old Timers outscored the Stars 39-29
I certainly wasn't looking for the Old Timers to come from a 3-1 deficit to win the series in seven games. Especially after they lost the 17-inning marathonm in game four to fall behind 3-1.
Game 4
Detroit 9, Old Timers 8 (17 inn)
Detroit 023 210 000 000 000 01 - 9 26 0 20
Old Timers 000 212 120 000 000 00 - 8 19 1 16
An epic game four saw Detroit blow a 5-0 and an 8-3 lead before finally winning 9-8 in 17 innings!!!! Detroit now leads the series 3-1.
Let's start with pitching. Pud Galvin didn't have it. He made it five innings, giving up eight runs on 16 hits. Detroit then had 10 hits the next 12 innings off three relievers. The Old Timers had 10 hits the last 11 innings of the game.
John Clarkson, an unbelievable effort out of the bullpen for the Old Timers. He pitched nine innings and took the loss. Clarkson gave up seven hits, two walks and struck out four. The Old Timers only have three pitchers in the bullpen. Mickey Welch went just one frame and Candy Cummings two.
The winning pitcher was Frank Wickaware. He went four innings, allowed three hits, three walks and fanned two. Rube Foster had a big outing, working five innings, allowing two hits and four walks.
Bill Monroe and Charles Blackwell four hits apiece for Detroit. The Stars left 20 men on base!!!!
Detroit scored eight runs the first five innings. Judy Johnson, making his first start of the season, had a home run and five RBI in his first two atbats.
Top of the 17th inning, Blackwell hit a solo home run 1-7 ballpark split off Clarkson to take the lead.
The Old Timers had the bases loaded in the 11th. In the 15th, Oscar Charleston threw out Bid McPhee at the plate 1-17 safe split. They had a leadoff double in the 16th and didn't score. Two men on in the 17th and a double play ended the game.
