Join baseball's all-time leader in consecutive games played for some hardball in CAL RIPKEN JR. BASEBALL. Select your team and choose your home field: a domed stadium, an outdoor stadium, or one geared toward power hitters. Each squad has its own strengths and weaknesses, so find one that fits your playing style and hit the diamond. You can play against the computer, a friend, or team up with your buddy and take on an AI-controlled team. This game has everything you'd expect from a quality baseball simulation: squeeze plays, plays at the plate, pinch hitters, and relief pitchers. If you're a huge Cal Ripken fan, field a team on which Cal plays every position and then challenge someone to a game!

* Play on natural grass or artificial turf and get accurate game play effects.
* Watch cutaway camera angles for realistic close-ups of the game action.
* Use Cal as a pinch-hitter for either team during the game -- or create an "all-Cal" team that can challenge the best of them.
