Sports Talk Baseball is a Mega Drive/Genesis sports game where realistic announcers do the play-by-play (voiced by Lon Simmons). Unlike real professional baseball however, the game ends when one team has 10 or more runs than the other team (win by domination rule). Players can play either exhibition, regular season, all-star, or playoff games. The game also features authentic MLB rosters for the 1992 season. Gameplay commonly features double and triple plays, and only the fastest runners in the game are capable of stealing bases. It was one of the first video games to feature individual hitting abilities for each pitcher. Barry Bonds of the Pittsburgh Pirates is the game's best player.
[edit] Sonic the Hedgehog Cameo
When you play as the batter, if you hit the ball hard enough, you can see a black-and-white picture of Sonic the Hedgehog on a billboard with the name "Sonic" under it.
