Does it show how many pitches the pitcher threw? I want to be able to see how many pitches threw o I can be ready on when to bring in a new pitcher from the bullpen.I want this game to be realistic. MLB 09 Is what I currently play and it's honestly not that bad. I keep losing for some reason.. I won one game. I think some of is because I keep swinging at every pitch lol. What MLB 09 is missing is how many pitches has the pitcher thrown and I read the reviews for MLB 2013 and it looks amazing. Does it show how many pitches the pitcher threw?

Yes you can. If you hit the start button, you will see the statistics of the pitcher and his pitch count. Also, there is an energy bar that can be displayed when choosing the pitch type

I bought this game for my 11 year old nephew and he said there is not a pitch count that he can see... But I find that hard to believe...?

Yes. Though I wish there was more detailed scouting reports of pitchers from other organzations in RTTS.

Just one. But it's really, really white. It comes in a clear plastic cube to keep it really, really white. This brand new ball is fun to take out of the cube and play with your glove while you watch a baseball game. Makes the game less boring. Don't drop the ball or it might scuff. Then you'll have to spend another $18.20 for a new and really, really white one. Also, go online and see how a four-seam fastball is held, a two-seam, a split finger pitch, knuckle ball and how a change-up is held. With that brand new and really, really white Major League baseball, you, too, will feel like a $25 million a year pitcher. Just don't scuff the ball. Just one. But it's really, really white.

thanx for the info--being in my financial condition, it is either wait another few months to purchase or pull the trigger and get a "used like new"--i have already missed the ncaa and the masters--i hate to miss all of baseball season! am looking forward to your review.

It's how many of a certain suit (whichever you're supposed to be doing) is. My suggestion would be to go on You Tube and find a video on how to play it. I've done that for SO many games and it's been so helpful. Once you guys get the hang of it, you'll have so much fun with it! I'll admit, I've had to read the instructions over and over each time we play, but we have fun with it!

I'm not sure if that's a serious question. The game features multiple game modes. You can play online, start a manager career or a player career, exhibition matches and skill games.

I haven't played it much myself but it seems like it's a difficult game for someone that age. There are several game cards referencing people that a 9 year old would not know. As far as content, I think the content would be ok. I don't recall any questionable cards or anything like that. This is just based on what little I've played it. Hope I was able to help in some way.

My ten year old son uses it for defense. Great for defense but I don't believe the ball will return at pitching distance. If it doesn't return completely it's still better than throwing at a five gallon bucket.

It's not like Yugioh at all. It's a cooperative game where you each have a certain amount of cards in your hand, but you do NOT get to look at them. You face them outwards towards your team. The objective is to build up the different color fireworks by giving hints/clues to your team about their hands and play them in the correct order. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=video&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CB0QtwIwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DFZlk3rHbPcI&ei=8x87VO6wBNeAygS34IKAAg&usg=AFQjCNEGGanLdQ3e3nHWk8M7CeSAPuRENg&sig2=RZYCflLoI0y3rzBwWQBOkQ&bvm=bv.77161500,d.aWw

You can put it away after each time you play. The last person that won gets the advantage at the start of the next game. There are stickers and things that you get to label your cities when you win so you kind of get the advantage next time and if you have someone like my son who wins every time it's a little frustrating for those of us that would like to win once in awhile. I think there are like 15 different times you can play before it's pretty much done but you can still play after that. It's just not as much fun. For a RISK fan like my son, he loved it.

There is an option in the settings menu to have the player play from where it left off or to start from the beginning. It's up to you.

I think it says up to 10 players because you have the option of team play. Not positive, but I think that's the case.

This one appears to contain 6 teams from various years before 2010. It also appears to come with a voucher for 6 free 2010 teams. Strat-O-Matic has produced card sets since 1961 and has also produced card sets for great teams and historic seasons going back to the early 1900s. The included teams could be from any of those categories. The set to buy for a full set of teams is called the "Current Edition", however the one currently offered has 2012 teams. Each year the traditional "Opening Day" for the release of the previous year card set coincides with the opening of MLB Spring Training. This year the 2013 set will be released on Feb 14, 2014.

It was at the time. However I HIGHLY recommend not purchasing this bat. Both of the ones we had suffered the same break. We have had ones from DeMarini and Louisville Slugger that have multiple seasons and are still going strong. If money is an issue there are many,many, softball players who upgrade yearly and then sell off their still good used bats. Perhaps that is another option for some.

It came with instruction on how to play. There is no writing on it. We just play that if you wrap it on the bottom it's 5 pts, middle is 10 pts and too is 15 pts. Games go to 100 pts. That gives you a good 10 min game usually.

Well I agree the rules are not easy to follow when you play for the first time. To be sincere I couldn't play the game by just reading the manual. What I did is find a YouTube video where I saw a whole family playing together and describing every move. Then it started to make sense. I took me a couple of hours to learn it. The manual is great when you're already in a game, because you'll always use it as a cheatsheet. Here's the link I'm talking about :S05E01 - 7 Wonders - How To Play: http://youtu.be/z_Wfdn5Es8UI recommend you watch all of these videos, I mean S05E02, etc. 7 wonders is a truly amazing game, the more you play it, the more you'll love it.

Not like and Easton or DeMarini...has pop out of the box but would recommend using it to hit ground balls etc to help its cause...

Sorry I can't answer that. I didn't know there was one like that. If you can get that it would be nice. We have used the game so much that the pens are already out of ink.
