Customer Review: Baseball Players
I love Backyard Baseball, I can pick all the pros I like featuring, "Derek Jeter", "Kenny Lofton", "Ken Griffey Jr.", "Nomar Garciaparra", and so much more. When I create a kid, my kid's name is Dizzy Lamb, who I like to add to my baseball team. His nickname is "Dizzy" and his birthdate is 5/28/1991. His batting average is 9, his running average is 10, his pitching average is 2, and his fielding average is 4. His face is light, and his hair is black. That's the story of Dizzy Lamb. I also like some of the backyard kids which features, "Pablo Sanchez", "Achmed Khan", "Vicki Kawaguchi", and so much more. In all, my favorite team in the game is Oakland A's. I like every level exept for Sandy Flats, and Dirt Fields which those are two hard fields to play. This game is great!!
