A good family game
We got this game for my son and he loves it not just for the solo game play but because you don't have to be a big baseball fan or a gamer to win the game. This means that when we have a family game night, this is one of the ones that always gets pulled out.

The special pitches and the bat that allows you to hit a baseball 186,000 miles makes the game a little sillier but also more fun for those non-baseball purists in the house. It won't replace MLB: The Show but at the same time, it's designed to be a fun little game for those that probably aren't at the stage of making the double switch.

Only fun if you play on the hardest difficulty level
It's a pretty fun game if you play on "hard" difficulty. Otherwise, you hit home-runs much to easily. I also wish the outfielders were bigger because you can barely see them out there. Graphics are not very good which is to be expected. I wish it had more mini games but home-run derby is fun. To sum it all up, if you are looking for a baseball game that is not extremely hard to play like many of the others, it's a descent purchase for [...] bucks. I wish they made it for PS3 though!
