Jim825 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 File Name: Total Classics 1975 File Submitter: Jim825 File Submitted: 09 Nov 2010 File Category: Total Conversion Mods Version: 1.0 Baltimore -- the unanimous preseason pick in the American League East -- won 90 games, but Boston surprised everyone by finishing 4½ games in front of the Orioles. Rookies Fred Lynn and Jim Rice sparked the Sox, as Lynn became the first player to win both the MVP and Rookie of the Year Awards in the same season. The Sox also featured established hitters like Carl Yastrzemski and Carlton Fisk, as well as pitchers Rick Wise, Luis Tiant, and Bill Lee. Cincinnati's Big Red Machine ran away with the National League West, boasting an All-Star lineup that included league MVP Joe Morgan, Johnny Bench, Pete Rose, Tony Perez, Ken Griffey, Dave Concepcion, and George Foster. The Reds and the Sox swept their respective League Championship Series, setting the stage for one of the most dramatic World Series in baseball history. Cincinnati crawled out to a three-games-to-two lead, which included three one-run games. But the real fun didn't start until the sixth game in Boston. The two teams battled into the 12th inning of game six, when Fisk, the Sox leadoff hitter, blasted a long fly ball to left. The ball had home run distance and stayed fair, giving Fisk a home run and Boston a 7-6 come-from-behind victory. Game seven was almost as intense. Boston jumped to a 3-0 lead, the Reds tied it in the seventh, and Morgan won it in the ninth with a run-scoring single. Many feel the 1975 Series helped spark baseball's popularity, which soared in the late 1970s and throughout the 1980s. ------------------------------------------- the Total Classics 1975 mod brings you the sights and sounds of the 1975 baseball season.

AlexTony Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Excellent work Jim ! Another blast (perhaps a lead off HR in the bottom of the 12th) from the past to re-live and perhaps re-write (sim speaking) some history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordo Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Really got this going with the set-up I like (Kado's classic pitch mod and my All-Star slider). Here's a screenie using the HDR Bloom #2 as well. The textures on the old style socks look very realistic. Had 2 great games with the Reds.... simming others. Lots of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
