THE 1973 SEASON:
Oakland wins their second straight World Series in seven games over the New York Mets. MVP Reggie Jackson leads the A's and the AL in HR and RBI (.293-32-117), while Catfish Hunter, Ken Holtzman and Vida Blue each win at least 20 games for the repeating champs. Each league championship series goes to full-length as well with the A's defeating Baltimore 3-2 in the AL, and the Mets upsetting Cincinnati's "Big Red Machine" 3-2 in the NL. '73 is the first year of the designated hitter in the American League.
The NL East sees a tight pennant race with St. Louis, Pittsburgh and Montreal trailing the Mets by 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 games respectively. The L.A. Dodgers finish 3.5 back of the Reds with a record of 95-66 that would have been good enough to win two of the three other divisions.
Pittsburgh's Willie Stargell leads the majors with 44 HR, while Atlanta showcases three 40+ HR sluggers, Davey Johnson (43), Darrell Evans (41) and Hank Aaron (40). California's Nolan Ryan breaks Koufax's strike out record with 383, while John Hiller of Detroit sets a record with 38 saves. San Francisco's Ron Bryant and Wilbur Wood of the the White Sox lead the league with 24 wins each.
You will receive 24 un-cut TEAM CARDS. Each team features up to 28 players (14+ batters & 10+ pitchers). A total of over 600 players, each with specific ability ratings. Also included is an Instant Results Chart which allows you to play full team schedules in minutes.
