"Lyke, what's a triple?"
"What's a grand slam?"
"Why is it that you can hit as many balls as you want foul without being out, but when I bunt it foul with two strikes, I am out?"
Stupid stuff like that. Anyways, this game owns. Awesome, awesome game.

Two words: Achievement *** and idiots that never played the great game of baseball.
I'm not a fan of watching baseball on TV at all, so I rarely watch any games, but I've enjoyed a few baseball video games over the past few years. Watching is boring, playing is fun. That's pretty much it.
And there are far easier titles to get gamerscore with.

If it gets people into playing the game and learning the rules, that's a good thing. My son is in little league right now, and if a game can help him understand the rules because he can visually see what's going on instead of being told, it helps him when he's actually playing.
Don't knock people because they ask questions about the game! lol You didn't know all the rules at one time, either, eh?

Awesome, awesome game. Two words: Achievement *** and idiots that never played the great game of baseball. That is exactly why and I think it's pretty sad.
This isnt always the case. For me, I like to have a variety of games. I like to play a lot of different games. Like i'll buy a tennis game because its different. What got me started doing things like that is from buying Fifa a couple years ago. I used to have a PSP and I used to buy games for my travels that I wouldnt normally play on a console. Just to play something different. And I bought Fifa thinking it was a cheap soccer game and it turned out to be a really fun and addictive game! Im looking for a different sports game. Im tired of playing bball and im not very interested in playing anymore football games. I have never really played a baseball video game and it looks like its fun. I dont watch baseball on tv but i wouldnt mind playing the game. Thats why I want it. I like a variety of games.
More people should try that. Try to stray from the norm from time to time. You can find some really fun games out there that you normally would turn your back on.

Some of it's highest paid players only play once every 6-10 days, the players in the dugout seem like they can barely stay awake, and you could watch a 3-hour game only to see a couple base hits and a horrible walk. Then look at The Bigs, and it helps remove all that filler for anyone who isn't Billy Crystal's soul mate.
