Here you will be able to follow the baseball history as it happen in real life via OOTP12. So expect nothing fictional as I use the real leagues and team rooster as they were (except for the line-up). The only real element of surprise is the injury factor and of course the OOTP factor.
Hope you will enjoy and don't hesitate to comment on special event that happen in those years (as we have real expert here it's a good way to learn about the baseball past history).

The National League is born

By the end of 75 it was evident that many serious problems were created by the way the league works. Indeed the unstability was created by the low entry fee for a franchise (less than 50$) wich brought the schedule problem since teams folded during the season.
So in the beginning of 76 William Hulbert one of the Chicago franchise administrator called a meeting in Louisville Kentucky to work on a new league. It was decided to give more power to the league autority and to allow teams in exclusive territories in large cities only.
The february 2 the National League is founded.
6 teams from the National Association
Boston (Red Caps)
Chicago (White Stockings)
Hartford (Dark Blues)
New York (Mutuals)
Philadelphia (Athletics)
St. Louis (Brown Stockings)
and 2 new clubs
Louisville (Grays)
Cincinnati (Reds)
Morgan Bulkeley the owner of the Hartford club is name President of the new league.
The National Association didn't survive.
