### 2/5 — Unfair bracketing

*2025-08-09, version 1.9.9*

We have a player Turey219 who should be moved to a different bracket of players more suitable for his skill level, pretty unfair when they finish 1st in everything! Other players are getting frustrated

### 3/5 — Log in h

*2025-06-24, version 1.9.9*

I been playin  this game for awhile and it’s not letting me get in the game it’s not loading at all today i got good wifi and good internet connection with my wireless network which is at&t and it keep saying unable check connection

### 2/5 — To Developers December 5 it happened

*2025-01-03, version 1.9.9*

I been playing for years and never understood how a player named DMW plays but waits a few days after the new season starts and within a few minutes has 15000 - 30000 club tokens generated for their team that’s right I said 15000 to 30000 if nobody believes it take notes and watch the beginning of every season I asked many times and nobody ever answers this Also these teams that form together are a waste 50 people and nobody plays on half the teams maybe try eliminating the team play since no awards are given

### 3/5 — Constant reboot

*2025-01-01, version 1.9.9*

I really enjoy this game when I can get into it. It’s consistently rebooting or doesn’t let me in at all. Pretty frustrating.

### 3/5 — FIX THIS PLZZZ!!

*2024-10-17, version 1.9.9*

It’s bad enough that if you don’t have money and I mean money!!! To blow then you can’t level up the way you must to be competitive. So at least if nothing else fix it to where you play others who are in your range. If my overall rating is 100 then I shouldn’t be playing people who are 190 plus!!! I would also like to win some tournaments or at least compete. Be nice if you would fix this. Thanks!! Bc I do love the game and I dedicate many hours to it. If i had the $ then I would spend it. When I do I will. Be nice for those who can’t at the moment to be able to compete tho.

### 2/5 — Force quit

*2023-12-14, version 1.9.9*

Everyday I build a big lead,then the game just shuts down. How hard is that to fix?

### 1/5 — 9 month player

*2023-05-28, version 1.9.5*

I don’t recommend this game. When I first started playing this game it was fun, but not anymore. This game crashes all the time and they want you to spend a lot of money $$$$$$ to upgrade players. The issues started when they added the WBS playoff tournament, single elimination tournament, daily league tournament and home run derby. I have been reporting these issues for the past 2 or 3 months. When I started playing this game you would collect coins and rubies to upgrade players now with the new tournaments you collect points and crowns to upgrade player. So when the game crashes you are charged with a loss and eliminated from the game. I have reported these issues, sent pictures and explained these issues. they respond by saying sorry for the inconvenience but you have reported these issues, we are aware of these issues, try restarting your device. In other words they are not going to fix issues or compensate for these issues they just want your money.

### 2/5 — Loved it!!! For a minute….

*2023-04-08, version 1.9.3*

I loved this game at first… up to the point where you advance in to new stadiums (around stadium lvl 9-10) I found that at this point your players need a lot of $$$ upgrades to be competitive. So from this point on you will get matched with players you have zero chances of beating much less scoring any runs against. TOTAL BUMMER!

### 1/5 — SteveH

*2023-03-11, version 1.9.3*

The game is fun but the customer service is the WORST I have EVER experienced. I have written several times about the same issue of being glitched out of any participation in Tournaments and nothing done at all after spending hundreds of dollars. Atrocious.

### 3/5 — Great game, for a while

*2023-03-07, version 1.9.3*

This game was great at the start and up to stadium five or so. Now I’m opening stadium eight bags and getting stadium 4 cards. It cost way too much to upgrade cards at this level. Once you get higher up you receive lower end cards and not enough of them. it is set up to be a money game for the most part, which is too bad because it’s a pretty fun game. Unfortunately, I’m erasing it even though I spent a little money on it.

### 1/5 — Warning

*2023-02-14, version 1.9.2*

Be careful when you buy anything in this game. Make sure you get what you pay for.

### 1/5 — Clearly designed to take $ to win!

*2023-02-06, version 1.9.2*

Fun design, but unfair unless you pay to play

### 2/5 — It's ok

*2022-12-27, version 1.9.1*

All u do is play the last inning and pitch/bat

Gets boring fast
Cant control  anything else

### 3/5 — Goofy ahh

*2022-12-20, version 1.9.1*

Goofy ahh game

### 1/5 — Gigger?

*2025-10-13, version 1.9.9*

I was actually enjoying the game until i saw a dark skinned character named Gigger. All the names you could have chosen, y'all decided to go with Gigger? Yeah y'all are trash for this and I hope y'all get everything y'all got coming to ya.  🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

### 1/5 — To Developers harassment occurs

*2025-06-02, version 1.9.9*

Our team keeps getting harrassed by certain people and nobody can report anything I been playing for years and never understood how a player named DMW plays but waits a few days after the new season starts and within a few minutes has 15000 - 30000 club tokens generated for their team that’s right I said 15000 to 45000 if nobody believes it take notes and watch the beginning of every season I asked many times and nobody ever answers this Also these teams that form together are a waste 50 people and nobody plays on half the teams maybe try eliminating the team play since no awards are given

### 1/5 — Game needs work

*2025-04-19, version 1.9.9*

Get to a certain level usually stadiums 9 to 10 and can’t win anymore. Start playing teams way better than yours…not enough tournament play either, only way to get better players without paying actual money….tired of losing to better teams that pay money ….candy crush is more fun than this

### 1/5 — Game needs work

*2025-04-09, version 1.9.9*

Get to a certain level usually stadiums 9 to 10 and can’t win anymore. Start playing teams way better than yours…not enough tournament play either, only way to get better players without paying actual money….overall the game stinks

### 1/5 — Server Errors

*2025-01-01, version 1.9.9*

Great game but getting “internal server” errors for days now.

### 1/5 — Server Error 400 Everyday

*2024-10-23*

Nice how we watch advertisements for the rewards and everyday Server Error 400 comes up and we get no rewards Thanks and then DMW is loaded and somehow drops amazing number of points every season Luker T is loaded and runs up the score Don’t play this game 2 people ruined this game you can’t even compete with Luker T and DMW Gold card teams humiliate your team teams are not evenly matched at all it’s a waste of time

### 1/5 — Love the game but …….

*2024-07-15, version 1.9.9*

Love the games but they should add pitching practice and have a place for girls to play as well but over all great game and yes I know this is a baseball games but still softball is just as hard as baseball just with girls playing and different pitching and rules And girls out there like me being a softball player you GO!!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Terrible game

*2023-09-24, version 1.9.7*

Don’t waste your time!

### 1/5 — Steal from you

*2023-08-05, version 1.9.7*

On more than one occasion when you purchase items from the App, they charge you for items you did not intend to purchase or charge you a fee in excess to the posted amount.   You take the item and then reasonably believe that you can get a refund but they deny eligibility for a refund. Thereafter, you ask for a reconsideration, thinking they would come to their senses, but they fail again. They did not provide any explanation. They clearly stole from me

### 1/5 — Game has locked up and nobody cares. Anyone else?

*2023-06-28, version 1.9.6*

Today, completely unable to access anything with internal server error. Customer service non existent, exorbitant prices and fixed beyond belief. Should be a great game but in incapable hands. It’s really too bad.

### 5/5 — One problem

*2024-11-04, version 1.9.9*

Great game but one problem. I recently upgraded phones and my account was lost. I searched it up and it’s still active but I cannot login to it. The account is VES. Can anyone help?

### 5/5 — Please fix

*2023-10-05, version 1.9.8*

I'm trying to purchase the big deal and it's not letting me, I'm willing to purchase the characters, please fix the issue, it keeps saying preparation, I really love this game and want to continue playing it, thank you

### 5/5 — Losing games due to disconnection from internet

*2023-05-28, version 1.9.5*

I spend more than most on bats, balls, and player upgrades and have a pretty successful team because of it. Be that as it may, I have recently starting losing games that I have won because of my internet disconnection. To be clear my internet does not disconnect from my phone I’m still receiving text messages and phone calls while playing on my WiFi all my calls and texts are wifi generated. But the app keeps disconnecting while I’m on a winning streak and thus I’m eliminated in single and double elimination games because the app says I was disconnected from the app even when I won the game the app even tells me I won the game and it will be graded as a win once I restart the app but when I restart the app it’s graded as a lost. Im beginning to feel like it’s a conspiracy and the app does nt want to me to win these tournaments which is silly because it’s just an emotional win. Im not really winning anything tangible. And with the amount of money Im spending on the app way more than people who acting place higher than me in these tournaments it makes absolutely no senses you would not want to keep a good paying customer happy. Please help and explain these weird internet disconnection losses. My screen name is Showtime 1 thanks

### 5/5 — Fun game but…

*2023-03-27, version 1.9.3*

Honestly I really dislike the physics on the womens’ chests. Makes me uncomfortable

### 5/5 — Opponents forfeiting

*2023-03-20, version 1.9.3*

I spend a majority of my time playing in the tournaments. However, if an opponent decides to forfeit, the winner should be granted additional points for such an action. It ends up hurting your final score when opponents forfeit. I suggest that if your in a tournament, either you shouldnt be allowed to forfeit or if you do so, the winner should be granted additional points. Also, the strike zone doesnt line up, the ball may be just out of reach of the bat and still be called a strick at the bottom of the box. Please address this. Lots of players are using this to their advantage.

### 5/5 — The game

*2023-01-15, version 1.9.2*

It’s a pretty good game, I like it

### 5/5 — Really fun

*2022-12-16, version 1.9.1*

It’s easy for beginners to play but I’m a pro fun to play when bored

### 5/5 — please add more

*2022-12-09, version 1.9.0*

game is great but it would be even better if you added a lot more players and stadiums to unlock, other than that its an amazing game.

### 5/5 — Money edited

*2022-11-29, version 1.9.0*

I like the game but it gets expensive to stay competitive in the later stadiums… I stand corrected the new update makes this game much better. The scout system evens the playing field. Thanks WBS.

### 5/5 — Put this in the game

*2022-10-02, version 1.8.2*

Oh I forgot to mention this the bots can’t hit home runs every hit that won’t be fair for the other player that you shouldn’t add one hit every location where the ball is they it a home run
