Completed Game: Alternate History of Baseball With No Strike Fiascos - Doug Fowler - Bog

Imagine no 1994/5 baseball strike/lockout, and steroids being fought in baseball a decade early.

The rest of the 1994 season unfolds week by week. Highlights showcase the game's excitement, the coming storm, and the record chases whose results mirror the uncertain future which comes because of this history's steroid scandal. This 1998 will be memorable for an entirely different reason from ours, as owners act to cut costs one way or another.

Seasons from 1994-2013 - with an emphasis on the earlier years - are discussed with fans able to consider the joy and sorrow different franchises would feel.

1981, of course, was also marred by a strike. The last section shows the 1981 division races month by month. Readers will see the pennant races of a completed 1981, with the playoffs and World Series, plus major award winners and statistical leaders. Changes to 1982 and beyond, minor as they are, are also discussed.
