Bottom of the Ninth was released by Konami in 1989 with an approach different from other baseball games of the era: instead of simulating a full game, it concentrates the action on ninth-inning situations, the moment of greatest tension in any game, with big sprites and exaggerated animations for both batting and pitching.
It's one of the many Konami sports games of the late eighties that favored arcade spectacle over strict simulation, meant for quick, decisive matches rather than replicating a full nine-inning game.
