    A fielder's choice is a play that the fielder has a decision (choice) of what base to throw to. In my baseball game, it is focused on catching the ball in the air, so a fielder's choice is out of the question.

    "Around the horn" references the players throwing the ball from Home, to 3rd, to SS, to 2nd, to First, then to the pitcher (more of a warm-up). If a game is going on, "Around the horn" usually refers to (after a strike-out) throwing the ball from the catcher, to 3rd, to 2nd, to SS, who then flips the ball (sometimes behind the back for fun) to the pitcher.


    This pretty much eliminates these names, but you are on the right track!

    Thank you!

    HotCatch. Hmmm, that is an interesting idea, but it isn't hot. Maybe if it was hot potato...

    Here is another screenshot just to wet your whistle :) (this is the homerun mode, it is controlled by tilting)

    BTW: You tap in the area of the score/highscore labels and the pause menu comes up.

    Around the Horn is a TV show also from ESPN, no doubt it is trademarked.

    I wasn't aware of that, thanks for the heads-up!

    I guess I don't watch enough TV :(

    I'm just a hardcore Tampa Bay (Devil) Rays fan so when they play well I always watch the shows afterward to see if anything gets mentioned...

    ...Like today, Evan Longoria's Walk-Off Two-Run homerun in the bottom of the 13th with two outs against the Red Sox made the Number One play on Sportscenter today. :D

    I am a HUGE baseball fan. More like a HUGE baseball player. I play on 3 teams per year, but I don't have cable, so no ESPN. I don't care though, because I like playing it more than watching it ;)


    Oh yah, that's one HUGE reason why I made this baseball game :p

    Title

    Maybe ''Roll it up'', as in rolling a double play or "Web Gem" if that is aloud by ESPN

    "Roll it up" doesn't really stand out as a baseball title.

    No, Web Gem is not allowed by ESPN :(

    No, you can always sleep on it and see what you can think up in the morning! Like I have said, you can submit a name or icon as many times as you like (different names/icons, not the same one :p)

    LOL, that sounds like Feel Good :p I will think about it though.


    There have been 0 icons so far! Even though it may take a little bit longer to make, you have more of a chance of winning if you make an icon, because I can choose it for an update (even if you didn't win) and you still win the full prize!
