1947 Deluxe Past Season with transactions and lineups available now!
Experience all the thrilling moments of the 1947 baseball season with our Deluxe Past Season edition. This is the season when Jackie Robinson of the Dodgers makes his groundbreaking debut, shattering the color barrier in major league baseball. The Dodgers win the pennant but lose the series to the hated Yankees in seven games.
The 1947 Deluxe Past Season database contains everything you need to play games using teams and players from the 1947 season -- a full set of ratings and statistics for every player who appeared in the big leagues that year, plus team rosters, manager profiles, ballpark ratings and league schedules. Statistics include official batting, pitching and fielding totals with left/right splits for all batters and pitchers.
More than just an update to the original Classic Past Season database, this "deluxed" edition has been recreated from an empty file as a completely new database using new tools and all of the latest statistical data from the most up-to-date online sources.
Database contents:
- basic player facts: names, batting and throwing hands, birthdates
- official batting and pitching statistics, including left/right splits
- fielding statistics by position
- games started at each position against left- and right-handed pitchers
- thousands of player ratings that you can see: injury, bunting, range, running, throwing, and so on
- thousands more player ratings that you can't see: the event tables and pitch-by-pitch ratings that make the game produce accurate results
- opening day rosters for every team, plus nearly 800 real-life transactions
- manager profiles for every team, including starting rotations, bullpen roles, saved lineups, depth charts, manager and player tendencies
- ballpark data, including dimensions, park factors, and weather ratings
- the original (as-scheduled) and as-played schedules for the season
- real-life starting lineups for every game played this season
The 1947 Deluxe Past Season database is priced at $24.95 and is available in version 12 format only. This means it can be installed with Diamond Mind Baseball: Version 12 but cannot be used with any other earlier version of the game.
Customers who have previously bought Diamond Mind's 1947 Classic Past Season database are eligible to buy this upgraded edition for the discounted price of $10. Send an email to dmb_info@imaginesports.com to request your discount promotion code.

Version 12a Patch
The Version 12a Patch
On Friday, December 16th, we released a software patch for the version 12 game. This update includes support for MLB's new Starting Pitcher as Designated Hitter rule, otherwise known as the "Ohtani rule" as well a number of other enhancements and bug fixes.
We wanted to make sure that this update was ready before the 2022 season database because support for allowing a starting pitcher to also appear in the lineup as the Designated Hitter will be a necessary enhancement for anyone wishing to replay the 2022 season and for leagues that will be based on the 2022 database.
We have created a Version 12a Patch information page that includes all of the details about this update, including a list of the fixes along with download and installation instructions.
Version 12a Patch Information Page
The "Ohtani Rule" and the 2022 Season
The 2022 Annual Season Season Database will be ready for release on Tuesday, December 20th, 2022.
Beginning in 2022, MLB introduced a new Starting Pitcher as Designated Hitter rule (Rule 5.11(b)) -- commonly known as the "Ohtani rule". This rule allows a team to choose the same player as both the starting pitcher and designated hitter (DH) and then make in-game substitutions as if there are two different players in the lineup.
If you have the version 12a patch installed, this new rule can be set with the "Starting pitcher as DH" option in your League or Organization's Rules/options page and will be enabled by default for the 2022 season.
Therefore, it will be necessary to have the version 12a patch installed to be able to play the 2022 season and take advantage of this new rule.
