BBW is loosely based on the APBA Baseball Master Game which allows for decisions which affect baserunning, steals, defense and other facets of the game and APBA GO does not provide for that.ĪPBA GO will display the batter’s card (if you want) and will display a graphical display of each dice roll (again, if you want). If anything, it is a dice version of the Basic Game formatted for the computer. I opted to manage the Red Sox against the default AI manager who had the Dodgers.ĪPBA GO is NOT APBA Baseball for Windows (BBW) nor does it pretend to be. Finally, there is an option for Tournaments for multiple opponents and a more complicated structure. You can compete against another APBA fan too or issue an open challenge. You can play solitaire either by managing for both teams or taking on an AI manager.

Once you click “Play Ball”, you get a couple of options. Of course, I wanted to see the new cards of the two new teams so I chose the 2018 Dodgers and Red Sox. Logging into APBA GO, I noticed that I still had last year’s World Series teams, the 2017 Houston Astros and the 2017 Los Angeles Dodgers in my repository. Remember the 2017 World Series teams will no longer be free after November 30th.

“Now Available! The 2018 World Series Teams – You can now play the 2018 World Series teams (Boston Red Sox and the LA Dodgers) for free!

Why? The APBA Games Company have announced that the 2018 World Series teams are now available for free for a limited time. I’ve taken another look at APBA Baseball’s new online game called APBA GO.
