Summary

Tommy Lasorda personally endorsed this video game; at the time he was the manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers. The game is not licensed by any professional baseball league, making all team and player names fictional. Game modes include single game exhibitions and a 30-game season mode. A pre-game difficulty switch makes the game biased either towards the pitcher, batter, or an equal game of skill between pitcher and batter. Due to an agreement with Sega, this game was never released for any home console other than the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis.

This game was released in Europe and Japan as Super League (スーパーリーグ).
