About this product

Product Information

Baseball, aka Home Run, is an early, extremely crude attempt at video baseball, failing miserably in many respects, most egregiously in the area of fielding. Players control a single fielder or three fielders moving in unison. They cannot throw the ball, and there are no fly balls to catch, but tagging players out is ridiculously easy. Two-player games between competent gamers usually end in a zero to zero tie, and the computer is very easy to beat. Pitching, on the other hand, is nicely executed as players can throw curves, fastballs, screwballs, or change-ups in a fairly convincing manner. Home runs, strangely enough, are scored only by hitting the ball directly over second base (providing a fielder doesn't get in the way). Home Run looks and sounds as simplistic as it plays.
