Pablo is the GOAT!

[@bigbananadealer846]

i love talking to the kids and hearing their stories of the neighborhood, like tony telling a story how pete wheeler asked tony if he can help his dad with fix the car, and he goes to petes house and sees his dad doesnt even own a car

The fact the ball can bounce off the mound is unexpectedly wild. The field is actually completely 3D even though you mostly see it from the top, that's so cool.

I was a broke kid back then so I never played too many video games, but this baseball game has so much charm even though it's pretty old. Love the details they put in

[@209BlackCat]

This is comedic genius. The anticipation mixed with the randomness and suddenness of the game. Punctuated by the hilariously simple character animations. The AI targeting your pitcher in a wheelchair the first inning. Throwing their best pitches against Jorge. 23 minutes of laughter.

[@normanclatcher]

The sheer disrespect of icing Jorge like that...

[@chainuser1774]

The nostalgia!! Can't tell you how many hours I've put into the Backyard sports games, they were my childhood!

[@jakeystarsuper]

You can still play it

[@lillyateass333]

As todays kids, I so badly wanna play this game ngl.

[@shy9954]

as a young adult still in school, I know exactly what it's like to

[@billycole6887]

I always found that Ahmed was best using the power swing, Stephanie was best with the line drive swing, and Pete was always best with the line drive as well. I always picked Luanne Lui too because she could pitch and bunt her way on with speed

[@zacharymaneja1207]

I think it's great you remember these nuances

[@karlrovey]

Why risk it with Pete though? Bunting with him was pretty much a guaranteed hit.

[@gjshomeofsilliness9391]

Just imagine if you could, upon fulfilling certain requirements, have Luanne Lui put her Teddy down before stepping up to the plate. Her batting stat would SKYROCKET while Vinny would declare on commentary; "She's put the bear down! I repeat: SHE'S PUT THE BEAR DOWN!"

[@JJ-fg2wd]

Luanne could hit NUKES in the GBA version

[@porphyrin9705]

Please keep playing Backyard games! While NTE can make anything entertaining, everything about these games is already better than what EA has to offer.

[@MrSkerpentine]

The writing & voice acting are still better than any recent 2K Sports game

[@carlodangio1724]

This was and still is my favorite baseball game of all time

[@Hossyboy420]

One of my first games I ever played! All the backyard games were so amazing, including backyard football that had Steve Young playing lmao

[@jaredmarshall1754]

Pete Wheeler was the best WR in any football game ever made.

[@frost-hj4cp]

Young, Cunningham, Farve, Marino (who was the worst QB), Drew Bledsoe, I forgot the last QB then you got Barry Sanders and Jerry Rice

[@BRonSports]

I haven't played the Backyard Sports games in years so it's wonderful seeing you play this one Drew! I wonder what Pablo Sanchez is up to these days? Hopefully being a GOAT at whatever he wants. Kid was amazing

[@JdDobbins97]

I’m not gonna lie I would not be opposed to this being a series

[@lancestevens1651]

I'm a 40 year old man, and this is still one of my favorite games! Not just back in the day... like now! It's awesome! As a teen, my little cousin had all these "Backyard" games. Played them for hours at his house. Years later, as an adult, I found the baseball and football games at a thrift store. Just as fun to play as ever! I loved that in the football game, you could create your own plays. Definitely better than modern Madden! Pablo will always be the GOAT OF GOATS!!!

[@imthataceguy3035]

Now this is prime content here. Though I wish you would have picked Mikey Thomas and the Delvecchio siblings. Tony has a great arm for outfield and Angela is the best pitcher all around. But hey, I'm biased. Either way, I really hope you can actually do a full season of this game

[@seannolan9857]

Doable in the original, but by 2001 being on the same team will always give the Delvecchios bad days. They play better against each other. So I always picked Angela, and never used Tony.
