I'm a history nerd, and enjoy thinking about what-if situations. My United Baseball League is based on the premise that the United States suffered a complete economic collapse, not in 1929, but in 1939. Many of the existing major league baseball teams folded. The powers-that-be then realized the stupidity of segregation, and merged surviving major league teams with the best of the Negro League teams in 1945 to form a United Baseball League, with integrated teams. I threw in a couple modern teams because I just like the names Seattle Mariners and Toronto Maple Leafs.

I control the Cleveland Buckeyes. On April 28, 1950, 27-year-old Cleveland pitcher Irving Riordan threw a no-hitter against the Cincinnati Reds. It's the only no-hitter I've had in all my years of playing OOTP!
