After that is complete players then move onto a best-of-seven series to win the title. Players have full control over their team’s lineup as well as managing their pitching rotation to get through the grueling schedule.

The player sprites are detailed while still maintaining a cartoonish look that fits perfectly with this type of game. The stadiums also look great with various details like scoreboards and dugouts adding to the realism. The sound effects are also quite good with various crowd noises being present during matches as well as some decent music playing during menus and cutscenes.

Its simple controls make it easy to pick up and play while still providing enough depth for more experienced gamers to enjoy too.
