  • Why?

    I would have given this game a decent review, but considering the mechanics of the game are sooo messed up, this is not worth more than 2 stars. There’s no reason why a ball that’s hit foul, counts as a hit, or why your player hits a ball, is safe at first and decides to randomly start running for second when the ball is directly next to that base. Also, when on defense balls are hit and your players pick the ball up and instead of immediately throwing to the base for an out, they run back to the pitchers mound before throwing it which causes the opponent to be safe when it should have been a sure out. I just don’t understand why this game was designed this way. I had fun playing the first few games, but once I realized the mechanics of the game, I automatically didn’t want to play anymore. Total of 10 minutes and I can’t stand the game any longer.

  • Could be a little better

    The game is very fun. It has me hooked for sure but the the teams like to do stupid things. The pitcher always throws the ball to wherever the lead runner is going. The outfield will throw the ball to the other outfielders. If there’s a bad throw in the infield after the play the runners will just take off which sometimes works but most of the time leads to an unnecessary out. If the devs could just make it a little more realistic in some situations this game would be a gem.

  • This game is pretty fun

    So this game is a very good time passer for sure I like watching all the plays and stuff and enjoy it’s only one inning long 2 innings would be fun too although. The pros: good progression, fun stadium building, vendors are cool, fun training camp building, nice stat building.
    The cons: runners don’t stop running when they should (there should be an option to advance or stop just like there are power ups), wish it was a tiny bit more interactive like a tap to hit dynamic, position players don’t play the ball right they either run the opposite way away from the ball or they try to return to their preset positions to try and throw runners out, sometimes when the third out is recorded a runner will cross the plate after the fact and it will still count as a run

  • Great App

    I’ve been playing the app for about a month now. I mostly use it to pass the time between briefs or just passing time in general. It’s a lot of fun. The only downside to it is the terrible animations your players do whenever a ball is hit to the outfield or bunted right in front of the plate. Is it really an idle game if the app doesn’t run unless I’m still on? When the ball is hit to the outfield, if it falling in the general direction of your outfielder he’ll just hold still and put his hands up and pray to god they catch it. Sometime infielder do the same thing but it is what it is at this point. Now the most infuriating thing is when the ball is bunted towards the pitcher. Your pitcher will run over to the ball, pick up the ball, RUN BACK TO THE MOUNT, and then throw the ball towards the base to try to get the out. I understand that I’m not playing MLB The Show here but they should at least be able to do the bare minimum. Oh! and it’s a serious grind to grab great players. I’ve been stuck in pro league 3 for about 2 weeks now and I just continue losing cause of these animations I constantly get and the lack of “skilled” ball players.

  • Was ok but update ruined it

    The game was ok, passed time and was interesting. Since the new update though it has become terrible. First off the daily amount I would get got cut in half, and the prices to improve your stadium stayed the same making it impossible to upgrade. They increased the cost for players so now I basically have to log in three days in a row before I can either upgrade my stadium or attempt to get another player. If I want to be able to upgrade anything or get players I have to spend money. It use to be watching ads which was slightly annoying but a lot better than spending actual money.

    Guess it’s time to delete. If you get the game just be prepared to spend money and watch ads, with game play actually not that good.

  • What a Joke of a game

    First I have no clue how this game is rated as high as it is. No way it should be more then 2 stars in anyones eyes. The baseball game portion you have no control so the computer makes dumb decisions time and time again. On offense it makes your players run when they clearly should not. It makes even more horrible calls for you when your on offense when your opponent doesn’t score or has one run. It is like watching a tee ball game no matter how much you upgrade your players the computer will always do what it has to do to screw up a key win. What point is upgrading your batting cage and ect when technically it does not help your players.

  • Good but needs improvements

    It’s good at the start you can upgrade quickly however I noticed that when off the game I earn the same amount of coins in an hour as I do in 8 hours when I go to sleep so it takes forever to upgrade items this really needs changing so you get x amount an hour with no limit.
  • The IQ of my players

    This game is great you manage a baseball team and renovate a baseball stadium I like it. But the games are the best part you watch your team that you levelled up to be played by a cpu to go against a different team that is a cpu, buuuuut there is one huge problem I would be my teams IQ let’s say the opposite team is safe on third and the ball is there too but the 1st base player is running to second and is half way there(ooooohhhhhh squidward on a chair) the logical thing is to throw to second but instead my team will throw to the pitcher and then they throw to second but already they are there. As well as when they hit it to the field my fielder is like “ I got it” but it goes by like by six feet and gives them a home run. All in all great game but please raise there IQ and not make my team dum dums also the umpire is ridiculous about calls so also make it so not every throw unless they swing a ball. So fix that

  • Updated

    Well, it was good but since they have updated it you have to earn more money to upgrade your stands and training facility, something that was 50m coins is now 329m… and the coins you earn when not playing the game I.e driving my car to work is way less… needs reverting back
  • You’ve ruined the game

    You’ve completely ruined the game with the needless change to the money system whilst keeping the old prices
