ASTROS/RANGERS FALL IN VIRTUAL MLB ACTION
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.
Sunday, the Nationals scored five runs in the seventh inning, to rally past the Astros, 6-3. Houston is off Monday.
The Rangers’ rally fell short, as they fell to the White Sox, 7-6. Texas is also off, Monday.
Here are the box scores…enjoy!
