Inside Pitch Advanced playtest: 1984 NLCS replay

With the newest iteration of Inside Pitch now out in the wild for beta playtesting, I thought it would be fun to see what's going on in developer Chris Davis' mind these days. Although I no longer play Inside Pitch regularly, it is a great sim and was a mainstay of mine for years, and Chris is always coming up with interesting design ideas. (His hockey and soccer games are still top-of-class for my money.) Since the 1984 Padres hold a special place in my memory bank - I spent the summer in San Diego doing nothing but watching baseball and playing the APBA MG after the family had moved West from Boston - I decided to give the game a spin by replaying the 1984 NLCS. So, once again, the NL East champion Chicago Cubs (96-65) will face off against the NL West Division champion San Diego Padres (92-70) . . .
