    Like any real baseball fan I have bought all 3 baseball games which I know
of for the Mac. They are:
1)   one from Activision (done by GAMESTAR)
2)   HardBall by Accolade
3)   Computer Baseball by Strategic simulations

For arcade type action I would recommend HardBall. It looks pretty good,
has a bit of digitized sound, plays pretty well (more features than
the one from Activision)

   If you want to manage a real Major league team then clearly Computer
baseball by Strategic is the one to go with. The program in in MS Basic
(ughhhh) and can be slow but you get about 24 teams which can be matched
against one another (for example the 1979 Orioles vs 1979 Pirates is
one of my favorites...I'm still trying to remove the blot of the comeback
in the real '79 series). There are a couple of glitches and bugs but it
does work reasonably well. If there were another one on the market which
had those features I would probably buy it first since this is not the best
job that could have been done.
   Hope this is useful.   David Gelphman
