I would agree with this appraisal. BTW, I just got the latest flyer from SOM
and they announced a version of their baseball game for the Apple IIe, IIc
and II+, with a version for the Commodore 64 to follow. I am certainly not
an agent for them, but I can supply details if requested.

PS. Here are some changes to the game for the 85-86 player set:

Optional clutch hitting and ballpark effect have been added, there are
now 8 pitcher's hitting cards, and injury readings will not occur for
players who played in all of their teams games (I see this last one as a 
small improvement to a neglected feature of SOM. They have never, in my
humble opinion, been very good in terms of intangibles or environment: 
injuries, weather, ball park, and others things like player ejections. 
I realize that several of these are hard to do).
