A "holy grail" of sorts for baseball simulation game lovers - whether it be the elaborate presentation (a large box, beautiful components, well-written rules -- compared to competitors which came in envelopes with charts and rules hand-typed just days before) or the fact that EVERY copy shipped without an Ozzie Smith card. In the end, only 1-2 seasons were created, and the gameplay is nothing different from Strat-O-Matic or Pursue the Pennant; but for a while Clubhouse Baseball was "the" new kid on the block.
