Here's a trailer for it:

I do kind of like the idea of 2 vs 2, but anymore than that and there'd probably be too much sitting around for a 3rd player.

That's interesting that a game had already tried this idea, I had no clue. I was thinking more just taking a real mlb team and control their players instead of trying to build yours from scratch. Fantasy drafts would probably make it more enjoyable as well. I think that there would be some interest with the 9v9, but I also like the idea of having one player control the outfield while one controls the infield just to get a little more action.
