Official Fact Sheet:
Your involvement as GM does not stop in the team’s front office. This year’s version of Baseball Mogul gives you complete control over your team on the field. You start by setting the starting defense, batting order and pitching rotation for your team. On game day, you choose your level of involvement. You can retire to the luxury box and make calls to the dugout as needed. Or you can take control of each player, choosing what pitches to throw and when to bunt or go for an extra base. A powerful game engine simulates each pitch of the game based on customized player ratings and over 100 years of historical data, assuring you the maximum realism possible!
- NEW Animated Play-By-Play! All-new in-game Manager Mode lets you call plays and make substitutions as if you were in the dugout. Or retire to the owner’s box and let your coaches and players control the action. It’s up to you!
- NEW Pitch-By-Pitch Mode! Fully interactive pitch-by-pitch mode puts you in complete control of the game. New graphical batting and pitching interface gives you pinpoint control over each pitch. Brush back the batter with an inside fastball, then put him away with a splitter in the dirt.
- NEW Custom Pitcher Database! Sports Mogul unveils a 30,000 line database with data for over 1,200 pitchers that you can’t find anywhere else. Includes individually researched ratings for every pitch in each pitcher’s arsenal, going back to 1901. From Gaylord Perry’s spitball to Daisuke Matsuzaka’s “Gyroball”, Baseball Mogul 2007 is the most complete baseball simulation you can buy.

Every scouting report includes lefty/righty splits, plus a skill breakdown against each type of pitcher (or hitter).
