Strat O Matic baseball board game turns 50

Doug Glanville will be part of the celebration 2/12 in NY. Anyone ever play any of the stat-based baseball board games-Strat, APBA, etc? You can trace the birth of sabermetrics to the day that Bill James started breaking down stats to try to win a board game league. Somewhere along the line I read that of lot of current baseball GM's had played these games growing up.If Hendry had played one, he might have learned the value of OBP.
