About the Game

It's bottom of the ninth on 52nd street. The count's 0 and 2. The pitcher winds, throws, and... CRACK! A long fly ball to Ralph's territory out in left field. Ralph is on the run - dodging tree trunks, sloshing through puddles, beating through bushes - then whipping the ball homeward, he recovers just in time to see Butch complete a sacrificial slide onto the old trash can lid that doubles as home plate...
In the big leagues they'd call that a 'run'. In Street Sports Baseball, it's known as survival.

Originally released in 1987, this unique baseball game brought the fun of kid's baseball to home computers. Now, relive those days in this remastered emulated version of the Commodore 64 release.

Gameplay

Choose your team from 16 of the neighbourhood's hot hitters and hacks. Each kid has their own strengths and weaknessess. Play against the computer or another human. Features a unique split-screen view so you can see all of the action.


This enhanced version introduces a number of modern features to this retro classic, including:

  • Saving/loading the game at any point
  • Support for most modern game controllers
  • Full control remapping
  • Image scaling and smoothing options
