When the game is started, a lineup screen comes up with the lineups of both teams. This allows the player to change his lineup before the start of the game. Each stadium has its own bitmapped batting screen with the batter closest to you. There is also the option of displaying where the pitch was in relation to the strike zone and a speed gun. I would recommend some sort of disk caching software.
Controls are simple.
Commands are given by a menu. The player selects an option by moving the joystick or pressing the appropriate button on the keyboard and either button one or two. When the ball is hit, the place where the ball will land is marked on the field by a circle. The smaller the circle, the closer the ball is to the circle. The controls are very good and it is very easy to use in any mode.
