About The Game
About The Game
Fast Inning Baseball (FIB) is a modern tabletop baseball game inspired by the "condensed game" format seen on MLB websites. Rather than tracking every pitch and at-bat, FIB focuses on the key moments that define a baseball game—clutch hits, web gems, pitching decisions, and dramatic home runs.
With FIB, you can:
Play a complete 9-inning game in just 10 minutes
Generate realistic line scores including runs, hits, and errors
Capture pitcher decisions and key at-bats
Experience thrilling game moments without the complexity of other baseball simulations
The core game uses a streamlined system of team qualities (Scoring, Power, Defense) and player grades to create a baseball experience that's easy to learn but provides the drama and unpredictability of real baseball. Whether you're looking to replay a historical season or create your own baseball universe, Fast Inning Baseball delivers fast-paced baseball action with minimal setup and record keeping.
