Pizza Box Baseball puts you and your opponent on the mound and at the plate. It's a game-long showdown. The pitcher must figure out the best way to approach the hitter. Try to get ahead using balls or strikes? The hitter must decide whether to be aggressive or patient. Attack and swing? Or stay away from pitches outside the strike zone? Both players try to work each at-bat to their advantage. Players use one card per at-bat. A result card reveals the action, and play continues. Players track the action using the game board or using the score pad. Score more runs by the end of the game to win. Four strategy levels allow players to add stealing, bunting, pitchouts, different hitter strengths, pitchers that get tired, and more! Players can complete a full game of baseball in an hour or less (20-30 minutes at the most basic game level). Real baseball drama offers a baseball experience any fan can enjoy. Play ball!
