Compare that figure to how many he DID allow and you get the number you will use to make his FR Allowed Rating. 025 you find out how many HR he would "normally" have allowed. Using that # (.025) you take a pitcher – let’s use Orlando Pena, who lead the AL in HR’s allowed with 40 – and multiplying his Batters Faced by. The first item you need to know is the league’s % stat of HR’s per Batters Faced (or Plate Appearances) as the Base # (in 1964, for the AL, it was.
Let’s take the latter (and I’ll use #’s from the 1964 season, one of baseball’s most interesting). The two areas? Walks Allowed and Home runs allowed. Mostly in two major areas (which then affects basic Pitcher numerical "hit" rating, which is, one would hope, based on Hits per Batters Faced, although it usually isn’t). I have done so for the APBA Master game pitchers (let’s face it, pitching stats were/are never APBA’s strong point). ) So I tinker well not so much tinker, as make the games more "statistically" realistic. I am also not only a major baseball aficionado, but have been playing tabletop baseball games since 1955 (my first APBA) and I have literally played them all (you name it, I played it. I am, by profession, a game designer (140+ published board games). Here’s a description of Richard’s HRA modification in his own words: At least *I* was impressed when I saw his list of accomplishments in the tabletop gaming world. In case you’re wondering, Richard does come with some credentials. With his permission, I’m posting it here. The best way to find out what all the symbols mean would be to purchase the physical card and dice game and read through the instructions/play book.Richard Berg shared this modification with me which increases accuracy for Homeruns Allowed for the APBA’s Baseball Master Game. An example of this with a play result number (red numbers on the card) of 30: fly out: PO:LF (K-SO PO-C), here the pitchers K rating trumps the fly out. Again this is something you would see in the card and dice game and where APBA GO does it for you automatically. k, x, y add more strike outs, z and zz limit walks, w adds walks and passed balls, r turns a strike-out into a flyout or groundout. The x,y,z, zz, k, r, and w are strike-out and control ratings that go above the normal pitching grades A, B, C, D.
This is something you have to do while playing cards and dice, APBA GO does this for you automatically. Pitchers are either a 1 or 2, C 5-9, 1B 2-6, 2B 4-9, 3B 3-5, SS 5-10, OF 1-3…you add up the total fielding and it gives you the fielding rating for the team (35 or less is fielding 3, 36-40 fielding 2, 41 and up fielding 1).
