Real Life Lineups ?

adml2 · 04-08-2012, 06:24 PM

I have OOTP12 and am brand new to the game. I've read that OOTP12 has real life lineups but I cannot seem to find them. For example, if I wanted to view the real life lineups from July 1, 1908, is there a way to do that ? Is the Federal League included ? I can't seem to find it within 1914.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I may be wrong, but I think the real lineups start somewhere around 1919 or later. The Federal league is not included.

That's right. It's either where baseball reference starts (1920) or where retrosheet starts (1918). The game does have the starting pitchers back to 1901.
