Major League Baseball

What is Major League Baseball?

Major League Baseball is an authentic sports simulation game for the NES which came out in 1988. Although it is one of the earliest official MLB licensed sports games, it did not feature baseball players' names due to the absence of a license with the players' union but instead directly with the Major League Baseball. Conjuring the excitement of baseball unto the player, it allows players to run their own team through simulated seasons.

How Do You Play?

Major League Baseball pits you against one another as a team manager who tries to strategically bring glory to his team. It is much about the technicalities of pitching, batting, and fielding with an emphasis on precision and timing. You are building a lineup, basing strategy on the opposing team, and making rapid decisions that can determine that day's victory.

Tips & Tricks

• Know Your Players: Each player has a distinct skill sets profile, even though they don't have names. Use statistics wisely when picking lineups.
• Pitcher Management: Use your best pitchers in the most important games only; changing up your pitching will confuse the batters.
• Batter Timing: Bad timing can lead to outs, while perfect timing is what leads to great hits and usually, home runs.
• Managing Rest: Keeping players fresh and energetic should be a priority, so rotate them into whichever game they can.
