What real reviews say
★★★★★ W I really like the game just wish the games were shorter
★★★★★ BEST GAME EVER Now don’t get me wrong. This game is good, but it did kick me from the game a couple of times. It’s probably not because of the game. It’s probably just because of the device I’m playing on. Anyone who didn’t like this game is crazy
★★★★★ Backyard baseball I love this game the best baseball game I have ever played the one thing the is kinda annoying is the the ump the calls outs is sometimes a little inaccurate But other than that best game ever
