Trevor May, Minnesota Twins pitcher and e-sports entrepreneur: Sammy Sosa High Heat Baseball 2001 is my favorite of all time. If you’re not tossing a ball back and forth this Father’s Day, try one of these instead. So, with or without real baseball, what are the best baseball video games of all time? We asked a bunch of people - a Major Leaguer, a professional scout, a Little League coach, a streamer, a game reviewer and a video game historian - for their picks and favorites. It’s the only way, for now, to literally Let The Kids Play (and bat flip, and talk shit, and OMG wear their hat backward).
But video games? They’re always around! Hell, a bunch of Major Leaguers played in a video game tournament in the spring on MLB The Show 20 (the latest and greatest baseball video game release), since they couldn’t play the real thing.
Real, actual Major League Baseball may be back soon after a COVID delay… or it may not.
