Playing out Games

While some people like to simulate many games quickly using OOTP's auto-play, for others nothing compares to being the on-field general of a baseball team. OOTP's Play-by-Play Mode allows you to enjoy this experience by acting as the in-game manager for one, some, or all of your team's games.

There are a number of game screens related to playing out games. We will cover all of these, as well as a few more options, as follows, in this section of the online manual:


Which Games do I Manage?

There is no rule about which games you have to manage. You could auto-play all your team's games, and then act as in-game manager just for the playoffs. You could act as manager for weekend games only. You can also choose to watch your games play out, without actually making the managerial decisions. It's all up to you.

Wait a minute, I thought I was the General Manager!

The role of a human manager in OOTP is a little bit of a blend between a real-world manager and general manager. As a result, despite being a general manager, you can still choose to manage individual games if you wish.
