If you’ve always dreamt of managing your own Baseball franchise and it continues to be a dream. Well, you can continue dreaming some more. But while you’re at it, you might want to check out this new iPad game called iOOTP Baseball 2011. The App Store describe this game as the most realistic and best-selling baseball management ever created. Take note, it’s baseball management game so don’t expect to have true-baseball action here.

As a text-based baseball management game, iOOTP Baseball 2011 may not be a game for everyone. If you’re looking for a fast-paced baseball action game, well this game may not be for you. iOOTP is a text-based management sim. Yes, there’s the right word – it’s a simulation game. As such, you’ll be busy tinkering with statistics and strategies. You’ll be making decisions either as a team owner or team manager.

So, here’s how the game works. You’ll have three game modes to play – major league, fictional or historical. In the major league mode you’ll choose a team and play out the current season. Fictional mode lets you create three fictional baseball worlds and its up to you to populate it with fresh players and clubs. Then you’ll start from scratch in creating your team and building a dynasty for it. Finally, there’s historical replay mode which lets you choose one of the three past seasons – 1923, 1965, 0r 2004. Relive any of those seasons and see if you can change baseball history.

If you’re a true-blue baseball fan, you’ll surely won’t find it hard to get into this game. If you just watch a baseball game for the sake of the action, you might find it hard to play this game or perhaps boring at first. But my suggestion is that, give the game a couple of minutes to work on its own, familiarize yourself with the game menus, indulge in the plethora of game stats, player information and all of the game’s details – and soon enough, you might find yourself enjoying this game.

Honestly, I’ve never played a baseball simulation game before. But I did find iOOTP Baseball 2011 pretty interesting and fun game to play on my iPad.

iOOTP Baseball 2011 is available now from the App Store for $4.99.
