Albert's Big League Baseball Game

This undated but likely mid-20th century title has an unusual mechanism based on two midway-style spinning wheels, one red for pitching and the other green for batting. Each wheel has four large fins in the middle that players use to spin the wheel, vertical teeth on the rim between each of the 40 wheel segments, and a flexible metal strip mounted to a post on the corner that slows the wheel and eventually comes to rest between two of the pegs. There is also a thick cardboard field and plastic pegs to mark runners, balls, strikes and outs. The fielding player spins the pitching wheel, which includes 12 strikes, 13 balls, 6 fouls, 1 foul pop out, and 8 hits. Balls and strikes may lead to strike-outs or walks, but on any hit result, the batting player spins the red wheel. That wheel in turn has 12 ground outs, 14 fly outs, 8 singles, 3 doubles, 2 triples and 1 home run. Most results have specific consequences such as tagging up, advancing runners or double plays.
