    Impossible to read text + poor batting controls + very poor graphics = save your money.

    An o.k. game. The best part of this game is the commentary duo of jon miller and joe morgan. The batting is alright. The most annoying part of this game is the web gem plays that the outfielders of the other team make 3 or 4 times a game. I dont know how many times i got pissed off when the centerfielder would steal a home run from me buy making a wall climb and extending his glove over An o.k. game.

The pitching is a fun experience though. Not a good buy, but a great rent.… Expand

    Graphics bad, game controls sub-par. I think EA needs to get the rights for MLB again.

    The lack of online, 2K card system, and minor league teams is a huge letdown though, especially when you consider the Wii Connect 24 integration that could have allowed for live stat streaming, updated trades (Santana is still on the Twins, for example. Why?), and competitive stat tracking.

    If you're a die-hard fan of the great American pastime and don't own any other consoles, this is still a decent game of baseball. [Apr 2008, p.88]

    A huge step in the right direction in combining the hands-on experience that the system is known for with authentic baseball gameplay. There are still plenty of kinks to work out, and next year there will simply be no excuse for omitting online play or the ability to update rosters because the roster that ships with the game is painfully out of date.
