There is special attention to the 2003 MLB season, as you can replay historic moments in the
This Week In Baseball challenge. With an official license, there are about 80 stadiums, authentic uniforms, and a hall of fame that honours MLB legends. Next to the 30 official Major League teams, there are some historic bonus teams such as a wartime and a postwar stars team, and various fantasy teams.
