5 out of 5 stars A fun and decorative game....   April 15, 2004

I ordered this because I liked the look, and thought it would be a neat addition to my game collection. To my delight, it also turns out to be great fun! It is basically a pinball style game, but even without the electronics and all, it is a joy to play. Have a friend who wants to play? It's easy to follow basic baseball rules and play through nine innings. Swing the bat to get a single, double, triple, home run, or even get out! Much like real baseball, you'll have to work to get some points on the board. As an added bonus, this game is easy to assemble and beautiful to behold. It stays out nicely, as a decorative piece for your game room or as an addition to any sports memorabilia collection. I'm not even a sports fan, and I love this game. It's a good return to simple fun, with value added craftsmanship.

I got this game for my 6-year-old son in my parents' name for Christmas 2005, and it was his favorite toy. He loves baseball, and of course pinball carries its own intrinsic interest and sense of fun. He's especially interested in it if I play with him, so there's a definite positive social aspect to the game as well. Additionally, the game's wooden and metal components are well made and, within reason, this is a durable toy.

Ok, not getting anything else done. This game can be played solo or with a friend. Great for hand/eye coordination. Great game!

Our 6-year-old son just loves this game! It was super easy to assemble, easy to learn how to play, and the games go by fairly quickly and are exciting. Plus it doesn't make all those noises that almost all the new, electronic toys make. It seems pretty durable and well-made and we're very happy with what we got for the price.

Once you play this game you enjoy it. It is fast paced and fun. It brings baseball into the home with ample players playing. If you like pinball and baseball this is for you. If you have Grandkids this is for them. Well made durable wood product that will last generations of kids.
