    I would go with Tecmo Super Baseball for the SNES.

    While it doesn't have a MLB license, so no actual team names, I never noticed this as a kid. However, it does have a MLBPA license and includes digitized images of the players, which is pretty neat for 1994.

    The game had a catchy rendition of 'Take Me Out to the Ball Game' as it's title theme and the crowd noises were what what would expect for a baseball game of the era. However, I'll always remember the 'Home Run' noise as the ball streaked out of the play field. Also, the use of the SNES's Mode 7 for fielding was pretty neat. I much prefer this to the overhead view of most baseball game where your players shrank to the size of ants. And the bullseye on the ground to locate where the ball was going to fall was also a nice touch.

    Overall, I think it's the best baseball game on the SNES. Sure, Ken Griffey Jr.'s Winning Run looks and sounds absolutely amazing, but Tecmo Super Baseball came out right during the MLB strike of 1994 and it was a great way to still get your baseball fix.

    the best baseball game Ive played so far on the Genny is Sports Talk. Im not a fan of the pitching. I cant move the ball while its in the air which is kind of annoying. but my God is the game fast. in other games you have to wait for the catcher to throw the ball back to the pitcher. or watch as the players walk up to the mond. in Talk, everything is instant.

    still getting used to the controls though. i get destroyed by the CPU. its very hard for me to strike out a batter. and most the time i can hit the ball but it just gets caught. damn I need to practice some more

    I stand by Baseball Simulator and Baseball Stars being the bast the genre has to offer. I love the arcade action. It seems like they dont make sports games like that anymore. the Hitz games were probably the last of their kind
