Read the full game description
Lords of Baseball puts each player in charge of a professional club rather than a single game on the field. Owners develop their organizations, manage money and personnel, and make strategic choices that shape the team over a season. Cards resolve the pressures and opportunities around each series while technology tracks and club improvements reward long-term planning. The result is an economic sports game in which sustainable franchise building matters as much as winning the next matchup.
