Such is the basis for Backyard Baseball 2003, despite the presence of MLB players disguised as kids. Fortunately, amateur, little league, high school and college, Babe Ruth, pony leagues and legion ball still retain the "love-of-the-game" feel for players and fans alike, and may ultimately save the venerable pastime from complete ruin.īut the real roots of the game can be found in "backyard" pick-up games played by competitive, taunting, fun-loving kids who don't give a damn about salaries, endorsements, or primping for the camera. I ask you this one question.Remember the days before baseball succumbed to greed, player pampering, and steroid-inflated statistics? While that sentiment may be germane to Backyard Baseball 2003 for the fact you can play 31 Major League Baseball pros as kids, overall public opinion of the sport has waned considerably in recent decades because of feuding owners and players. I am now at a loss as to what to do next. The only problem is, that I did not know at the time, that the website I had downloaded from was somewhat. So I made a post here explaining all of this. Every time I clicked the "Play now" or "Today's game" button, the game crashed. I could not hear any of the players talking (although their words did show up on the screen as text), I could not hear any music (during the intro or the game), and the big one: I could not actually play a game of baseball. While I could navigate around to the intro sequence, the trophy case, the player cards, the pick-up window, the league play sign-in, and I could even create teams, there were three things I could not do. Then, I downloaded ScummVM and uploaded the files to it, and the game actually showed up on the list! Then, I clicked on the game, and it opened!īut there was a problem. Then I had found files online that claimed to work with ScummVM.


I had been looking to play Backyard Baseball 1997, and had found out that ScummVM was the best way to do it.
