Replay The 2022 Season As It Unfolds!
- Play games in the library through to 4/17
- On the morning of 4/25 update the stats from Baseball Reference
- Play the games in the library through 4/24
- On the morning of 5/2 update the stats from Baseball Reference
- Play the games in the library through 5/1
- Continue this process until the season is over...
NOTE: the instructions above follow a weekly update schedule. However, any interval can be used, and the interval can change from time to time based on your schedule. The only rule is to avoid playing games in the library that are beyond the date of your last update. For example, if you have updated the stats through 5/1 don't play games in the library beyond 5/1.
Instructions on how to update this library as the season unfolds can be found in the Digital Diamond Baseball User Guide (in the 'Advanced Tutorial - Playing the 2022 Season In Real Time' section). Just click on the User Guide link below to access the guide. It is a good idea to backup the library regularly -- especially right before you import stats (just in case you make a mistake with the import). If you have any questions, contact us at support@digitaldiamondbaseball.com.
Enjoy the replay!

Tips On Screen Resolution When Playing Games
- The Base Font Size option located in the User Interface Option Group is used to change the font size of all text displayed on the game screens except for the Play Ball Page. This option will not have any impact on the Play Ball Page. The Play Ball Page screen elements are controlled using Digital Diamond Baseball's auto scaling feature described next.
- The Auto Scaling option located in the User Interface Option Group is used to control the appearance of the Play Ball Page. When enabled, Digital Diamond Baseball will scale the components on the Play Ball Page based on your current screen resolution. NOTE: this feature works best if you have Windows Display Settings set to 100%. In addition, you need to either restart Digital Diamond Baseball or right-click on the game screen and select "Reload Page" whenever you change your computer's screen resolution. This will allow the auto scaling feature to adjust to the new resolution.
- There are also several options that control the size of the screen elements on the Play Ball Page.
These options are available to you during a game by selecting Menu->Options.
NOTE: If you generally have trouble reading small fonts on the computer, your best option is to reduce your computer's resolution. By definition, higher resolutions make fonts and other screen elements smaller. The easiest and most effective way to make your screen easier to read is to reduce your resolution.
10.0.4 - Minor Patch
- Updated the Play Ball Page to use a slightly larger font for the linescore and players in the lineup.
- Added support for the 2022 Ohtani DH Rule. This rule allows the pitcher to also be the designated hitter. In addition, if the pitcher is replaced on the mound, they can still act as the DH. The option can be enabled in the Alternate Rules Option Group. The 2022 Real-Time Replay library will have this option enabled.
- Updates were made to the Real Time Import feature. This is the feature that will be used to update the 2022 season as it unfolds. These changes make the import more efficient and accurate.
- Updated the Bench Coach so that the team and batters are auto populated to match the game situation.
- Minor corrections to some game summaries.
- Minor corrections to the HR special event text
