Hey thanks!
It's kind of funny how ideas get in your head sometimes. I mentioned at the top of the first post how I came up with the team logos, but turning the logos into leagues themselves is a bit stranger.
My daughter was born in October 2020 with an issue keeping down her feedings that was bad enough to need medical intervention. In the meantime I stayed up during the night to supplement her feedings for about six months - thank god for project-based remote work - and during these nights I had to come with stuff to fill the time.
One of the things was getting into Japanese media and culture after the Japanese baseball season was over (was streaming live games) and another was seeing how I could turn these things I was working on in my free time into functional OOTP leagues. There was test simulations and spreadsheets and research and experimentation with OOTP settings and so on.
Hence....this!
P.S. - A fascinating source for things pertaining to the history of pre-professional baseball is
