Deadball

A dice-driven tabletop baseball simulation that recreates teams from any era or location using real player statistics. One or two players manage lineups and resolve plate appearances with RPG dice, running through a full game in roughly 15–20 minutes. Gameplay emphasizes quick, intuitive resolution of pitches, hits, baserunning and defensive plays while preserving statistical differences between players and teams. Setup and turns are compact, letting users simulate historical matchups, fantasy rosters, or pickup contests when time or weather keeps play off the field.
