Bottom of the 9th
The home team has one chance to score in the bottom of the ninth while the visiting closer tries to shut them down. Players take opposing roles as pitcher and batter and resolve each plate appearance with dice, cards, and player-specific abilities. Gameplay plays out over three outs or until four hits produce a run, with bluffing, deduction, and hidden information shaping decisions. The game supports variable player strengths, customizable lineups, optional expansions, and advanced league and solo rules for extended play.

Ben Bishop6.5 Take the most exciting parts of baseball, then boil it down to a 20 minute dice game. This is that in a peanut shell. The app is great too.
