The live action multiplayer table game that lets you throw the pitches, swing the bat, and even knock a few out of the park!


     Homerun Baseball - A new unique tabletop baseball game designed by a true baseball fan rather than a salaried design engineer who might not even have liked the game of baseball! This game has what fans really want... lifelike action! What perfect timing for a game like this one, with the world wide interest and excitement generated by baseball and it's home run races.


A true 'back to the basics' baseball game

Outstanding and unique features include:

  • A two (2) to nine (9) player game.
  • Pitcher actually pitches ball towards batter.
  • Variable speeds of pitches controlled by pitcher.
  • Pitch capable of curving.
  • Batter actually controls the bat and the bat speed.
  • Batted ball can actually be lifted over the outfield fence for a "Homerun" in any direction and variable distances.
  • All fielders are movable and capable of fielding the ball.
HOMERUN BASEBALL uses three levels of play by utilizing one of three different sized balls. The large ball is for young children or beginning players (not too many home runs and slower action) - another is medium sized for moderate speed action and a few more home runs - and a small ball for fast action and lots of home runs (including tape measure shots).

Outfield and infield defensive players can be moved to field batted ball if that particular position is manned. Unmanned positions are used stationary. If only pitcher and batter are playing, outfield and infield positions can be placed where desired by pitcher.

Start your own home run race and shatter the big boys' records!
Create your own Subway Series!

Game size can be made to suit. Using proper engineering, it can be made for home use or modified for commercial use in arcades, sports bars, fairs, and even at ballparks. It has the potential of rivaling pool tables and even video games in popularity.

In addition to all the outstanding features of HOMERUN BASEBALL, a product review has been conducted with very favorable findings:

  • POTENTIAL MARKET - very large with extensive national and possible international market.
  • TREND OF DEMAND - rapidly expanding with significant growth opportunity.
  • PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE - more than ten years.
  • PRODUCT LINE POTENTIAL - moderate with multiple markets/use potential.
  • LEARNING - moderate with normal instructions sufficient for most users.
  • NEED - very high. Fulfills both psychological and physical needs.
  • PROMOTION - low. Relative to expected sale advertising suggestions. Display ad in specialized national magazines. Classified print advertising.
HOMERUN BASEBALL can be made to resemble an existing major league park such as Wrigley Field or Fenway Park, for example. Imagine putting these interactive games in fans' homes all across America, and the world! Besides being a huge hit with grown-ups and kids alike, HOMERUN BASEBALL also received excellent reviews from the patrons at an arcade where it was featured for a time.
"The most fun is seeing the excitement in a kid's eyes when they hit a Homerun. You would think they had just hit a five hundred foot homer out of Turner Field off of Greg Maddux."

The HOMERUN BASEBALL prototype shown on this site is primarily made of wood with basic home tools. Felt was used to resemble the grass and playing surface. However, using plastics and a textured playing surface, it would be relatively easy for a manufacturer to make this game for commercial use.
