Double-Play Baseball (1979)

About this game

Double-Play Baseball follows all the rules for playing professional baseball. The game is played in nine innings. The nine dice represent the batting team. The single white and black pitcher die represent the fielding team. Use the score board and pegs to keep track of each inning and game score.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
