Old Time Baseball simulates the great game of baseball as it was played and enjoyed during the golden age of radio. This baseball simulator is unique in its presentation of the game by a radio announcer. There are no graphics except an old style scoreboard that shows balls and strikes, runners on base, the score, and inning of play. Your team is directed with simple controls that set strategy, otherwise allowing player skill and chance to decide the ultimate outcome of a game. Alternatively, you may match two teams controlled by the computer and listen to the game as it unfolds.
The genuine sound of baseball on the radio cannot be mimicked without advertisements between innings. These have been selected from jingles on my home team broadcasts, ads from old time radio shows, internet archives of radio advertisements, and some outright fabrications.
The announcer's voice is supplied by the text to speech capability of your android phone. By changing the default voice in your text to speech settings you will change the voice of the announcer.
Game play is uncomplicated. The defensive side selects a pitch or makes a pick off attempt. A fast ball pitch is more likely to be a strike, but also more likely to be put into play. A breaking ball pitch is more likely to be off the plate, but the batter may be fooled into swinging. Batting averages, on base percentages, and earned run averages are calculated from outcomes in game play and, as such, accurately reflect the probabilities of a turn at the bat. Pick your pitches accordingly.
The offensive side may choose to swing, take a pitch, or you may let the batter decide. If extra bases are selected, the runner, if he is fast and aggressive, may try to extend a single into a double or double into a triple. Stealing second and stealing third are self explanatory. If a bunt is called for, the batter attempts a bunt rather than a swing.
