Summary

Step into the shoes of one of baseball's most legendary pitchers in *Roger Clemens' MVP Baseball*. While the game doesn't feature an official Major League Baseball or MLBPA license, it includes 26 teams with rosters that mirror real MLB squads, using 1991 season statistics. Although real player names aren't used, the fictional monikers clearly hint at the athletes they represent. For example, you can strike out one of Oakland’s Bash brothers—M. Bash or J. Bash—with Texas’ R. Nolan or hit a long ball with Detroit’s C. Fieldman against Chicago’s M. Gaddox. The gameplay in *Roger Clemens* stands out from most NES baseball titles. While batting mechanics may remind you of games like *R.B.I. Baseball* or *Major League Baseball*, the camera shifts to an outfield perspective once the ball is in play, offering a fresh take on controls and presentation. Compete against a friend or the AI, and in solo mode, choose between exhibition games or a full 33-game season that culminates in the playoffs. To guide you through the season, the game features Roger Clemens himself, offering expert tips to help you succeed.
