yeah man, i love the scoreboard.

Question: is this game your using for the pc? And secondly, is it a sim-only game, like EHM, or can you play the games as well? Awesome job with this, dude, i'm really liking how you give updates on every team as well as your phillies.

Although I still am dissapointed with the Phillies for the music they played for the rays in the world series opener...it was just pathetic, low class, and highly unsportsmanlike. But that's a topic for a different thread, preferably in the baseball forums.

Out of The park baseball 9 is a text sim,along the lines of Football manager.For me,its the only baseball game I can play because the realism is unmatched anywhere.Instead of trying to describe it here,you can go to out of the park developments web site and download the demo.I believe it lets you play a full season or so,I'm not sure.There are also forums there that could pretty much answer any questions you might have.OOTP X is in the beta process now and will be out hopefully in May
