2K Sports announced today that MLB® Stickball, an exciting, fast-paced, multiplayer game that puts gamers against each other to see whose team can win a classic game of stickball, is scheduled to be available on the Xbox LIVE Arcade for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft on October 8th.

"Gamers who are into sports games will need to check out the Xbox LIVE Deal of the Week this week to get their sports fix. Microsoft is offering discounts to four Xbox LIVE Arcade games, two game add-ons, and one avatar item."
While stickball is undoubtedly a sport with videogame potential, you're better of heading outdoors than playing on your Xbox 360 on this occasion. With just two single-player game modes and bare-bones multiplayer options, the 800 Microsoft points price tag is criminal.
One of the few sports games available on XBLA, it has at least as much replay value as some similarly priced games. Operation Sports can see 2K releasing this game on disc for the Wii and charging twice as much. Collecting players and a variety of fields adds replayability.
