Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Vipers Softball at 100% against Blast Softball's 27%. Vipers Softball also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). Blast Softball's advantage is rating (4.0 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (194 vs 2). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Blast Softball sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Vipers Softball asks for nothing beyond the download.
Blast Softball holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blast Softball has 194 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of Blast Softball's written reviews are positive against 100% of Vipers Softball's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
