Sean Lahman: Building Baseball History, One Stat at a Time

If you've been playing OOTP for a while, you probably know Sean Lahman's name: He created the historical player stats database that the game uses, and he helped give OOTP plenty of exposure during its early years. We thought we'd drop him a line and learn more about his career.

"I was blown away within 15 seconds," he says of the first time he laid his eyes on OOTP 1 way back in 1999. Find out why in the latest interview on our blog.

By the way, Lahman enjoys playing historical seasons in OOTP, and a new blog called Bullpen By Committee recently took a look at Charlie Ferguson, a Philadelphia Quakers pitcher whose career could have rivaled Cy Young's when it began in 1884. Sadly, he died of typhoid fever in 1888, leaving a huge "What if?" question behind. Bullpen By Committee used OOTP 16 to answer that question, with impressive results.

Now Playing: Our New Tutorial Videos

If you're new to OOTP and could use a video overview of how to run your team, you're in luck: We're in the process of creating a series of videos that dig into the game's many features. We've posted the first two on our YouTube channel: The first one covers the basics, and the second one discusses calling the shots from the dugout during games.
