	Description Edit \| History

Pizza Box Baseball puts you and your opponent on the mound and at the plate. It's a game-long showdown. The pitcher must figure out the best way to approach the hitter. Try to get ahead using balls or strikes? The hitter must decide whether to be aggressive or patient. Attack and swing? Or stay away from pitches outside the strike zone? Both players try to work each at-bat to their advantage.

Players use one card per at-bat. A result card reveals the action, and play continues. Players track the action using the game board or using the score pad. Score more runs by the end of the game to win.

Four strategy levels allow players to add stealing, bunting, pitchouts, different hitter strengths, pitchers that get tired, and more!

Players can complete a full game of baseball in an hour or less (20-30 minutes at the most basic game level). Real baseball drama offers a baseball experience any fan can enjoy. Play ball!

Pizza Box Baseball Scorecard

More scorecards, based on the ones that come in the Pizza Box Baseball game. I use these for every game, but i wanted a place for entering the inning R, H, E, LOB stats at the bottom of each inning column as well. I tried my hardest to do diagonal lines so you could enter r and hits, and errors and lob in the same boxes, but numbers doesn't support it, and i wasn't going to redo it in excel. Maybe later.

Updated Solitaire Opponent (1D10)

This is my updated version based on Hans' great creation. Instead of using 2x1D6 + 1D8, I modified the chart using 1D10 and slightly changed the probability for some scenarios. However, all are very minor changes.

SOLITAIRE PIZZA BOX BASEBALL

This is a one page printable Solitaire Opponent Card which has several readings charts that require the roll of two 6-Sided Dice to determine the Solitaire Managers Game decisions. This Solitaire is to be used with all the original and expansion rules set out by On the Line. Feel free to copy, print, share and modify. The first trial game result was 5-4 for me. Results seem to work o.k. thus far. Enjoy.

Quick Reference Charts (Pitcher Strategy - Stealing - Fast Runner - Bunting)

This is a quick reference chart to using the Pitcher Strategies against Normal/Fast Runners stealing, Bunting and Sending the Runner. Also added a Throw to Second Rule when a Fast Runner is on 2nd Base.

Pitch-by-Pitch / MLB Player Rule Variant

This concept was born of an idea by BGG member Ninja Bob. It adds Pizza Box ratings to batters and pitchers according to actual MLB stats. This also plays every pitch in every plate appearance. I added two MLB teams (Cubs and NYY) The concept is very preliminary and this document is intended to be shared and built upon by anyone up to it. Have fun. Please provide feedback, add-ons , omissions etc.
