It’s the second inning and you’re up at bat. Taking your place at the manhole cover, you notice that the pitcher is getting ready to throw overhand and you try to prepare. You want to make sure that you hit the ball dead on and high enough to miss the fire hydrant and that car parked outside the brownstone. 

Ready for action, you swing hard and connect, sending the ball all the way down the street. As other players run for the ball, you race to the trash can cover, fly past the mail box, round the grate acting as third base and sail on home to the manhole cover. You got yourself a home run!

Stickball is an American east coast tradition that has been played by city kids for generations. It’s like baseball but with different equipment. Instead of a bat, players use what amounts to a sawed-off broomstick. The surrounding neighborhood and its elements become the ball diamond, bases, foul line and obstructions. This is ball at its rawest and best!

The application gives you the authentic look and feel of a real stickball game. You get five different venues from choose from, so go ahead and play in an empty lot in Boston, a school yard in Jersey City, a street in Philly or Brooklyn, or try playing up a hill in San Francisco. The buildings, scenery and details will take you to those places and put you in the game, along with cartoon people who are patterned after that city’s stereotypes. 

There’s lots of fun and variety for you here. You get to choose your bat and ball, the pitch style and the play mode, where you select a Quick Game or pit your skills against an opponent. You can even decide to try your hand at Fungo, where you toss the ball into the air and hit it on the way down or after a bounce or two.
