Ver 1.20 — Three-Game Series / Pitch Tempo / Postseason Stats

Version 1.20 is now available. This update reshapes the schedule into three-game series and adds "pitch tempo" (change of speed) to the pitching simulation. It also brings a postseason stats view that was never visible before, along with fixes to walk-off winning-pitcher rulings and more.

The Schedule Is Now Built Around Three-Game Series

• The season schedule now lines up like real pro baseball: up to three games against the same opponent at the same ballpark, then on to the next series. Matchups used to be scattered at random — the schedule tab now looks far more natural
• Interleague games (against the other league) are grouped into a single mid-season block (an interleague period)
• Opponents rotate after each series, so you won't face the same team over and over

"Pitch Tempo" Added to the Pitching Simulation

• The batter treats the recent pitch speeds (up to the last 4) as the timing they've locked onto; the further a pitch strays from that baseline, the more likely it is to be mishit or swung through
• The more consistent those recent speeds are (a settled baseline), the bigger the surprise when you break it with the opposite speed. Mixing fastballs and off-speed pitches to vary tempo now pays off

Postseason Stats Are Now Viewable

• In the history tab, each year's postseason stats (batting and pitching TOP 30) are now shown below that year's regular-season tables
• They follow the batting / pitching tab above. Years without a postseason simply don't show them
• These were tallied before but couldn't be seen on screen — now you can view them properly

Records & Rulings Fixes

• For walk-off and come-from-behind wins, the winning and losing pitchers are now correctly credited to the pitcher of record at the moment the lead was decided. Fixed the case where a starter pulled after 5 innings was credited with the win on a later walk-off (thanks for the report!)
• Fixed watched postseason and All-Star stats leaking into your regular-season career totals

Improvements for Name / Data Mods

• Mod "Data" folder names and CSV filenames are now matched case-insensitively. On Linux / Steam Deck a lowercase "data" folder could fail to load before — now either spelling works
• The Nat (nationality) column in ForeignNames.csv now absorbs spelling variants. Recognizable values like "America", "USA" and "アメリカ" — across English, Japanese and separators — are mapped to the correct nationality (recommended keys are romanized: USA / dominican / korea, etc.)
