Ball Five Pick Any Season
Any season. Every team. Every at-bat.
Pick any season from 1903 to 2025 and replay it at-bat by at-bat. One click rolls a 1-1000 number, the result lights up on the player’s card, and you click it to make the play happen. It’s the feel of a classic card-and-dice game, without the cards and dice all over your table.
What’s in the game
- Player cards built from each player’s real season stats, with lefty/righty splits on every hitter and pitcher
- Cards that flip like the ones you got in the mail, with real stats on the back
- Fielding checks based on each fielder’s range and errors
- Pitcher warm-up tosses set his form for the day, and fatigue colors tell you when he’s tiring
- Momentum: a pitcher can get in a groove or get rattled
- Steals, pickoffs, hit-and-runs, bunts, intentional walks and pitchouts. You make the calls.
- “At the wall” plays: robbed home runs, balls off the wall, and wind-blown homers
- Real schedules, standings, season stats, box scores and play-by-play, plus the real playoff format for each year
How it works: after checkout, email me the season you want and I’ll send your download link, usually within a few hours. Your link always gets the latest version.
Microsoft Excel only, not a board game. Works in Windows or Mac Excel.
