Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
NG MLB Mobile Bus holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ParkStAug has 217 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 9% of ParkStAug's written reviews are positive against 0% of NG MLB Mobile Bus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
