ASTROS OFF; RANGERS WIN SIMULATED SLUGFEST
In an attempt to fill the void left by the absence of Major League Baseball, the long-time baseball board/computer game, Strat-o-Matic is playing the 2020 season, virtually.
Strat-o-Matic is using their computer technology to recreate all of the scheduled 2020 games.
As a light-hearted attempt to fill the absence of live-action baseball, KWHI will post the daily results of the computer-generated games involving the Houston Astros and Texas Rangers.
While it, in no way, can replace actual baseball, we hope it will act as a tongue-in-cheek substitute until real baseball returns.
Monday, the Astros were off and will travel to Arizona, Tuesday.
The Rangers ripped 19 hits and scored nine runs in the sixth inning, on their way to a 14-9 win over Oakland. The A’s loss moves the Astros into first place in the A.L. west by mere percentage points.
Here is the box score…enjoy!
