Baseball Stars 2
Baseball Stars 2 is the sequel to the very successful Baseball Stars game that appeared for Nintendo in the late 1980s. It was published by SNK for both arcade and Nintendo Entertainment System. Players can create leagues of up to 125 games (6 teams playing each other 25 times) and view statistics such as league standings, average, home runs, runs batted in, earned run average, wins and saves. Players can fire players and upgrade them using the same 15-point system introduced in the original Baseball Stars.
Story

Baseball Stars 2 built on this by introducing new batting positions, improved pitch control, the ability to change field lineups for improved coaching strategies, and a number of other features. Players can create leagues with up to 125 games and 6 teams. Statistics are tracked throughout the season, and players can be upgraded over time.
