Playing Baseball Highlights: 2045 is like watching TV highlights of mid 21st-century baseball games, with heavily thematic gameplay, no outs or innings, and without bogging down in a play-by-play baseball simulation. In this quick and interactive game, two players build their teams as they play, combining both strategy (building your team) and tactics (playing the game) without any of the downtime.

During each “mini-game” (typically 10 minutes or less), each player alternates playing six cards to simulate a full game’s highlights. The mini-game includes defensive and offensive actions, and your single card play may include elements of defensive and/or offensive plays.

Do you try to thwart your opponent’s pending hits, put up a strong offensive action of your own, or use your better players to do both? Players buy new free agents after each mini-game to improve their roster, and the team who wins the most mini-games in the series is the champ!

The latest release of Baseball Highlights: 2045, the Bases Loaded Edition, includes a comprehensive assortment of unique starting teams, all previously issued expansions and promo cards, and a brand new 15-card All-Star Expansion, all housed in a larger box designed to accommodate not only the entirety of its contents, including dividers for effortless organization, but also future expansions, ensuring your collection grows seamlessly alongside your love for the game
