Game Zone Super Stadium Baseball Game - Realistic Tabletop Baseball Game for 2 Players Ages 6+

This One - PROS - little guys vs cardboard cutouts, dugouts, no plastic barrier behind the triple/double/single pockets, home plate trap door - CONS - not 2 full teams of players, no functional scoreboard, very overcomplicated scoring sheet, very teeny tiny foul “poles”Slammin Sluggers - PROS - functional scoreboard, all the MLB teams, foul poles - CONS - no dugouts, cardboard pieces are flimsy and start to rip after repeated use, pitching machine height can block the ball, plastic barrier behind the triple/double/single pockets makes it difficult to get the ball out but they can be removedMy son is 7 and in his opinion this is 5 stars and he likes it better than Slammin Sluggers (it’s also newer so that could be part of it.) As a parent paying for it, I’d give it 3-4 stars because it seems to have a little less functionality compared to Slammin Sluggers. If this game had 2 full teams of players and a functional scoreboard it would win hands down in both of our eyes!

Rainy days don’t stand a chance anymore. The game is fun and quality-made with strong pieces and fantastic pitch and hitting mechanics. My kids love it and we play together. Great way to teach your kids about the game of baseball too. Great gift idea for grandparents to get their grandkids!

Gifted this to a friends 8 yr old who live baseball. He plays it with his little brother regularly! (When they aren’t outside playing baseball). Recommend for a boys gift for sure!!

My grandson loves it. Good value and decently made.

This is one of the best purchases I have made in a long time. I bought it for my five-year-old son for a number of reasons. We love baseball, he is just starting to learn the sport, and I wanted something that we could do together. The beauty of this game/toy, to me, is that it acts as a wonderful teaching tool or just a fun way to pass time. My son is learning how runners advance on different kinds of hits. He's learning what sacrifices are. He's learning balls and strikes. He's learning outs. He's learning all of it, and he's having a blast doing it. It helps that the guys are blue and red (we're huge Cubs fans and we, naturally, despise the Cardinals). The game works pretty simply. The pitcher pulls back a small, spring-loaded lever and releases a pitch. You can control the speed of the pitch by how far back you pull the lever. With a five-year-old, I don't pull it back that far. But when i'm playing with my wife or a buddy, the pitches can really come quick. You have to time it up with some genuine effort. It also gives you the option of throwing sliders in either direction. Batting works in much the same way. You pull back the bat and you release it when you're ready to swing. There are pits all over the field. Each represents an out or a type of hit. You can even hit homeruns.Keeping track of strikes, balls, and outs is a cinch. You move pegs. Again, great for learning the rules of the game. I even let my son know that certain hits, though they register as single outs in the game, would really be double-play balls. All of the plastic players move. Setup is essentially taking the field out of the box. It's lightweight, easily portable. It can be played lying on the floor or on the dining room table. We have a lot of fun with this.This was, by far, my son's favorite Christmas present. We're still playing with it regularly in February and he's ready for the Cubs to get going!

This is well made and sturdy. The only drawback is the lack of spare parts. Would be nice if an extra ball or two would be included since the game is designed so that a well hit ball can go outside of the game and roll which has resulted in a ball being lost

La puntualidad, y la calidad del producto

It's okay. For the price I expected more.
