MLB Advanced Media launches simulation game

MLB Advanced Media (MLBAM), the interactive media division of Major League Baseball, has launched 'SimSeries', a simulation game in which fans predict the outcome of a 'tournament' involving baseball's best ever teams.

Sixty four teams will be divided into four divisions, each team playing head-to-head in a best-of-three single elimination series until two teams are left to compete in a best-of-seven World Series.

"SimSeries is a fun and exciting way to keep baseball fans connected to the game after the season is over," said SimComm’s Gregg Klayman.

WhatIfSports, the sports simulation company for online interactive gaming, will simulate each of the games and provide MLBAM with the game results.
