@tatomuck18 Yes.
Real sports baseball for Atari 2600 was better.
gameplay was unreal….fielding was better than anything today..todays games are too much about batter/pitcher.
can you steal bases in this game?
Great game great times back in the day! My cousin and I would play this game for hours thanks for the memories he was the expos I was the jays . Videogames are great now but this gameplay was amazing back then . I’m glad I was able to start out during the big gameing boom . Quarters lined up on the galaga and pacman machines at the local arcade it was a great time for sure !!!!
OMG Intellevision. I used to play this since the system came with a bunch of sports games. Baseball was our least fave, but I love seeing it again regardless.
I used to play this with my dad all the time. Then I got MLB for Nintendo….sad to say it, both of those I mentioned are better than 2k10 for the DS.
This game was actually pretty dumb once you figured the controls and got fairly quick with them. 90% of fielding could be done with the pitcher. Most hits could be grabbed either by an infielder or the right fielder, who could easily throw the runner out at first, even from the right field wall. If both players were competent, only way to really get a hit was to thread the ball between shortstop and pitcher, and even then, it could only be a single. So you could only hit singles or homers.
this is the best baseball title i ever played. Even with today’s advanced graphics, this classic is tops for me.
On defense, I would stick the second basemen right on the bag since the pitcher always shifted to that open space after the pitch is delivered. You pull more double plays that way on hard grounders.

Good times back in 84
As comic book guy on the Simpson’s says,’BEST GAME E-VER’
1:27 C’mon, the pitcher should have caught that!!When your pitching you keep your right thumb on the 5 pitcher button and your left hand on shortstop!Any help here??We used to play this game for days and after we all got as good as each other it was kick ass!
“YOUR OUT” Scared the shit out of me
This and D&D were great Intellivision games. Played Baseball on IV so much, I didn’t need the overlays, plus they’d keep slipping out anyway…
I used to have this game and me and my dad would play all the time. I love it now this is a great game but if you lost the overlays you were F-ed!!!
Those outfielders have amazing arms.
I think I was about 5 when I first played this game with my older brother. 20-some-odd years later, I could still remember the “Yer Out” sound. Just thought to look it up today! lol. Ah, refreshing! Such a classic and I remember now that the sound was startling to me as a 5 year-old. Ha!
My bro and I still do that “Rgyeroowwgt!” noise to each other when the other says something stupid. Haha
The thing I remember about this game was how tempermental the damn buttons were! Sometimes you’d have to press 50 times to have the guy throw to 1st base.
I threw 2 perfect games against my friend Tom Humeston. He soon stopped playing against me. He nearly had a fit when he hit one of the wall in left center, my center fielder through to short and I threw him out at first. Happened both games. Awesome memory.
You’re not kidding; I would’ve busted the scoreclock on these clowns 20+ years ago.
I remember my best friend and I played each other to a 15-inning scoreless game, only for him to finally punch one across the plate. Simpler times but to us, that was the F’N World Series….
man this brings up memories
1:12 It sounded like, Yewout! I love 4-bit talking noises.
I remember playing this the first time and
thinking”Wow,I can’t beleive how awesome these graphics are”
Loved when the ball would inexplicably
disappear.
Favorite game of all time
It was a fun game but I remember once in a while the baseball could go off the screen and there was no way of getting it back so you would have to quit the whole game.
