I grew up playing Strato-Matic baseball. One of my all time favorite strato cards was the 1969 Willie McCovey card. He was a beast vs. right handed pitching with a 1-5,6,7 straight homer. Anyone have a personal favorite? I mostly played with the 50's, 60's, 70' and 80's players. I never played with the Arod, Pujols or Barry Bonds cards.

My favorite card is the first home run I rolled. It was the Chris Bando 1984 card. Back then they used the old card patterns. Bando's card, if I remember was a 2/5 2/6 3/6 home run card.

I still remember my very first inning. Bret Butler walked and stole second. Julio Franco singled (1-star). Andre Thornton walked. Chris Bando, 3-6 Grand Slam home run. I won that game 4-to-1. After that, I was hooked.
