About this game

Bottom of the 9th is a baseball game from Konami featuring polygonal players. Batting and pitching use aiming cursors, with a lock-on option designed to make play easier for novices.

The game includes real players from the 1995 season through an MLBPA license, but teams are identified by city names rather than official Major League Baseball affiliations. Eight fictional stadiums are available, along with an announcer who calls the action.

Modes and Features

  • Complete-season mode with statistical tracking and memory card saving
  • Season schedules of 13, 26, or 52 games
  • Training Camp for pitching, hitting, fielding, and running practice
  • General Manager mode with player trades

Bottom of the 9th was released on PlayStation, Nintendo 64, and Sega Saturn.
