Hank Greenberg smashed 2 homeruns and Vern Kennedy pitched a complete game at Sportsman's Park as the Detroit Tigers beat the St. Louis Browns by the count of 7 to 3. Detroit tallied 3 runs in the 4th inning. St. Louis out-hit Detroit 12 to 9, but Detroit ended up with more runs. Kennedy(1-0) was the winner allowing 3 runs for the game. The loss was charged to Ed Cole(0-1). He couldn't find the strike zone and allowed 10 walks in 5 and 2/3 innings.

1938 AL Standings

April 25, 1938
My MLB 1938 AL asplayed replay is underway. Tried posting via the SOM Baseball 2013 game but it doesn't show up here even though the game says "Blog posted successfully". I'll have to manually post results, so, unfortunately I won't be giving as much info on the season as usual. Just too time consuming.
Anyway, I'm 1 week into the season. The only thing of note to report right now is the fact that Detroit Tiger Hank Greenberg has hit 6 homeruns in the 1st 6 games. Since Detroit is the team I manage in this replay, and Greenberg hit 58 that season, I'll be reporting often on his progress as he attempts to surpass Babe Ruth's 1927 MLB record of 60. Here is the 1938 AL Standings after 1 week of play.

Trying a 1938 AP Replay Blog

I recently got a new computer and have been having trouble posting results from my previous Strat-O-Matic asplayed replay, the 1987 season. That season is complete and I'm now starting a 1938 asplayed replay. I'm going to see if I can blog my season results here.
