Description

The playfield of the game is laid out like a stadium with roaring crowds, a play-by-play announcer and features a moving baseball glove. The game has three flippers, two pop bumpers, two slingshots, drop targets, a captive ball, and a four-ball multi-ball.[3][4]

The artwork of the sidebox is very bright and the head artwork features a flaming baseball.[5]
