In 1970, the NL had 9 hitters with double 1s. Since this was my first set, I thought that was normal. It might be, now, but in the early 70s, I don't think it happened a lot. I think there were only 5 in 1973, counting players with 350+ PA.

The double play by the Yankees makes me think that APBA ( and other games) should have a play where the two fielders are both judged for their talents. Maybe a result where the shortstop is charged with an error unless the 1B is a Fielding One. Or both infielders have to be, to get the DP.
