About
In a 24th century where baseball team owners are dissatisfied overpaying their players (e.g. US$2.4 billion per year for a lifetime .250 hitter), they have replaced the athletes with armed robots;[2][1] there are four models of robot to choose from, each optimally suited for specific baseball positions.[8] One of the game's innovations is where upon force plays, the two opposing players fight for possession of the base; another is the ability to upgrade robots' abilities between pennant games.[9] If a team loses three robots in a game (to destruction from incremental damage), they forfeit the game.[10]
