Baseball '09 Features

 Instead of taking you out to the ballpark, we let you take the ballpark out with you. Baseball '09 lets you knock a few out of the park no matter where you are. Step up to scorching heaters, deceptive yakkers, crazy ball butterflies and even the odd meatball. Baseball '09 uses simple and natural controls and realistic batter physics to give you total control. Hit down on the ball to ground it, under to flies, dead on to give you a line drive, and swing a touch early or late to pull left or right.

• Control swing power to cunningly place shallow flies, or swing for the fences.
• Tell your runners exactly when to try to grab an extra bag, just be careful not to get caught in a squeeze play!
• The pitcher has a variety of weapons at his disposal including fastballs, curveballs, screwballs, sliders and knuckleballs.
• Strike out batters with carefully chosen and placed pitches. Accept the catcher's suggestions or shake them off something a little less predictable.
• Fielders use team work to snags out, relaying throws, supporting base players and running squeeze plays.
• Three base levels of difficulty, with dynamic up-scaling.
• End-of-game scorecard shows hitting stats including home runs, hits, batting average, strike outs and walks.
• Full 3D graphics.
• TV sports-cast look and feel.
• Online stat tracking and Hall of Fame. Challenge your friends, and the world, to beat your high score or killer batting average.
