PC Gamer - Out of the Park Baseball 13 is a baseball management simulator in the mould of Football Manager. I know a lot about management; less about baseball. With a greenhorn’s naivety I created a manager in my image and selected the ‘Start Unemployed’ option.
My plan was to score a minor league job, then, with a mixture of inspirational talks (“do more homeruns!”) and sound tactical advice (“stop conceding homeruns!”), ride to the big time on the back of a handful of men smacking balls about.

"Adam Ames presents his recent picks for titles which he feels should be able to see the light of day on Steam. While everyone pretty much agrees Steam Greenlight needs some major work to correct a few glaring problems, the platform does give indies a chance to offer up their games to a larger audience."
From the review: "Overall, Out of the Park ’13 made a few improvements over its predecessor, but the meat of the game is pretty much the same game, which is actually a good thing. If you already have Out of the Park ’12, $39.99 might be too much for a few visual and AI improvements. If you don’t have a prior OOTP game, OOTP13, much like last year’s game, is an excellent baseball management simulator."
The amount of information is a little overwhelming at first but real good once you get used to it..
The latest update for Out of the Park Baseball 13 has gone live, and it adds the ability for online league members to watch games being played “live”.
