Answer to Last Week's Trivia Questions:
Who was the only pitcher to face Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle?
Al Benton, who made his major league debut with the Philadelphia A's in 1934 and finished his career with the Boston Red Sox in 1952.
As for the bonus question, I have to admit that the question is a bit of a trick question. The two players drafted by the Royals in 1979 and went on to become Hall of Famers are these guys.
This Week's Trivia Question:
Every person who has played major league baseball in the 1930s is deceased -- with one exception. Who is it?
Notes: OOTP 17 is still available for 50% off ($19.99). Since we're moving to that version after the season, it might be a good idea to pick it up now while it's on sale.
Next Sim: Thursday night. The next sim will go to July 30, giving us an extra week before the trading deadline.
Has everyone upgraded to Win 10? Any issues with OOTP, either this version or the next? I'm going to have to upgrade soon.
ReplyDeleteI've been running OOTP15 on Windows 10 for a while now with no issues at all.
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, I've had sporadic bugginess with OOTP15 on Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan). Sometimes the application won't start (or, get into a crashing loop at start), and always displays a "This application crashed unexpectedly" message when I manually exit the game intentionally.
ReplyDeleteFrom the 10 minutes I've seen with OOTP17 on my Mac, I haven't experienced either issue yet.
I have noticed some weird commish-only issues with OOTP16 that may be resolved in 17 - specifically, it bombs on the upload of the league file when certain settings are enabled. I've never had a problem doing normal GM stuff, though.
