The game presents baseball from a side-view, with players handling pitching, batting, fielding, and baserunning. Pitchers can mix pitch types and aim for specific locations, while batting depends on timing and pitch recognition. On defense, players can throw, catch, and attempt tag plays. Modes include exhibition and season-style play, with progress tracked through team results and standings.

Manage pitcher stamina carefully in longer season play.
