ABL - Yep, It's Baseball in Australia!!

mikezone13 · 06-02-2024, 07:12 AM

Sydney Baseball Championship and the Victorian Baseball League merged about 3+ real life years ago and are now the Australian Baseball League. A fictional world set in Australia that has mvoed to OOTP 25.

We've been going for nearly 70+ in game seasons, or about 9 years of real life. Note, I don't GM a team, so completely unbiased commish, I commish only.

This is one of the great OOTP leagues IMO (yes I am biased), but we've got a bunch of guys who have been there from day 1 and most GMs have come from referrals.

We're a reasonably mature bunch of GMs where communication daily on slack isn't critical, but it's great to give your fellow GMs a ribbing when they underperform and choke in the playoffs
