NOTE: There were two All-Star Games played in 1962. It might be possible to replicate that by entering the two All-Star Games into the schedule file. This year, the AL was the home team for the first game while the NL was the home team for the second. The entry for the first game would be on July 10, which is day 191. The line would be (without the quotes) "191,22,21,1". The second game was on July 30, which is day 211, and the line would be "211,21,22,2". Be advised that adding the All-Star Games into the schedule file may cause problems in OOTP when those days come up. The normal recommendation is to delete any All-Star Game listed in a schedule file and instead add in the All-Star Game manually via the schedule editor in OOTP.

Because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our abilities and skills, because that challenge is one we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win."
