Fun for fans of all ages, the iplay Deluxe Stadium Baseball Game places the action of America's favorite pastime in your hands. With a spring-loaded batter and pitcher, this 3-D stadium-style board game gives you that ballgame feeling as you throw a curve ball or slam a home run. Each infielder can be placed strategically on the field, waiting to catch a pop fly or tag a runner out. Pockets around the board tell you if you've hit a triple, single, or foul ball, while a handy slot lets you keep track of balls, strikes, and outs.

Realistic Baseball Action With the lifelike moves and hard-hitting action of the Deluxe Stadium Baseball Game, everyone can enjoy playing ball. Ideal for road trips, family gatherings, or even office parties, this game features a spring-loaded batter and pitcher to give you and your opponent an authentic battle. There are 12 hand-detailed players in all.
Wind up your batter and see if you can hit the pitcher's fast ball. Runners who try to steal are subject to the roulette wheel--give it a spin to see if your player is safe. The board contains wide blue mounds at each infield and outfield position, displaying three possible slots to place your player. If the ball hits one of the fielders and drops into the pocket, you're out!
Customize Your Ballgame
Just like a major league player, you'll have the option of making those split second decisions that make or break a game. A little slide lets you move your batter from having an open or closed stance, while the lever pulls the bat back as far as you need it. When you're on the pitcher's mound, three triggers behind the score board provide several choices for your next move.
Along with activating the pitching chute, you'll also be able to throw a curve, fast, or screwball. If you want to really challenge the batter, press the trigger to drop the mound by the batter for a disappearing "miracle ball".
Versatile for virtually any amount of participants, this game can played by two players -- or, if there are more people, you can choose to form teams to play against each other.
Stadium-Inspired Board Design
Each time you hit the ball, you'll be able to tell how--and if--you scored thanks to the navy blue pockets that surround the board. Brightly colored signs labeling double, single, and triple hits line the back, while large white words declare your foul balls. For those questionable calls, three pockets behind the batter indicate if a missed hit is a ball or a strike.
The board measures 17 x 17 inches (LxW) and fits on most tabletops.
