True to its name, this punishing game takes some of the wussiness out of baseball, and were not just talking collisions at the plate.
-
While probably not being able to match up to "World Series Baseball" in terms of depth and such, the games arcade style brings a fresh viewpoint to the genre that some of the sims may take part in later down the line.

Official Xbox MagazineThe main complaint is that the appeal of the game wears off quickly. [Nov 2002, p.129]
-
With great graphics, top-notch sound and amusing gameplay, this is baseball at its most wacky and enjoyable.
-
Brilliantly illustrated and animated, flawlessly announced, and a synch to get into, there is little holding the baseballer back.
-
While it doesn't possess the sheer addictiveness of, say, "NFL Blitz," it's simultaneously a breath of fresh air and a nostalgic look at the baseball game genre.
-
Short of a grand slam, but it still makes its presence felt.
-
If you need hard hitting action buy a football, hockey, rugby, boxing, or even soccer game.
