Backyard Sports: Sandlot Sluggers — About this game
Sandlot Sluggers gives the Backyard baseball cast a neighbourhood rivalry and a story built around facing local teams before the bully's side. The original DS game puts direct control into pitching and batting, with buttons or stylus available, while fielding is automatic. That division makes pitch selection and batting timing the centre of each inning. Pick-up games provide a short start; Season and Playoff offer longer competition, and Story follows a created character. Watch runners and outs after contact before planning the next pitch or hit.
