Description

Baseball is a BASIC game that plays out the 1967 world series between the Red Sox and Cardinals. All the players are present and probabilities for their actions can be requested when asked to make a move. The game itself is mostly played by answering yes or no questions, or a base to perform an action with. Questions include whether to steal a base, or which base to throw a ball to.
