Boring
As boring as real baseball.
Pay to play
This game is bunz there’s no skill to it at all. You can’t time up the hits any better. It’s pay to play, I had a 30% chance to win a game and out of probably 100 retry’s I won 0. Crazy
Don’t bother
This game is about as boring as can be. There is nothing to do but play prime games 24/7. There is no team building as power is the only stat that matters. Dev team doesn’t seem to have a clue on what they’re doing. Their solution to everything is “it’s on the list” or wait for the next update which to this point has always been a letdown. Don’t waste your time or money.
Game doesn’t load
I downloaded this game and it won’t even let me play it it won’t even load pass the the screen that says turning a double play and it kicks me back to my Home Screen after that not a good game
Paywall
At a certain point you get stuck behind a paywall and have to buy card packs with real money to proceed
Money Pit
Can be fun but get ready to take a 2nd out on your house and go into credit card debt. Be warned. Customer service is junk and all they want is to wipe out your finances and take your money.
Other pitchers in playoffs are to good and infielders
I spent two days trying to get past one playoff game but I physical could not because the pitcher was to good and would not come on all game this is not a good game don’t download it! The infielders are way to fast and are way to unrealistic with the plays they can make same with the outfielders this game is way to unrealistic.!!
.
Never give me a stupid pride tag again.
Fix the game
Giving teams with low power opponents that have ptw users
Terrible game
Horrible timing system and horrible level up system boring af
Lost gold
Everything was good until i didnt get my rising star 20 gold and had 2595 in gold an bought one yellow coin and then i only have 495 in gold
Game sucks
The management is terrible. They make poor decisions, ignore what players actually want, and focus on things that don’t improve the game. I don’t understand why they’re spending time adding Pride badges while other issues with the game go unaddressed. At the same time, I’ve seen players disrespect the military, and it doesn’t seem like the moderation is applied consistently. The gameplay has barely evolved, the stats aren’t realistic, and there hasn’t been enough meaningful content added. Overall, it’s become repetitive, and I can’t recommend it. Do better Kirby..
Temu Tap Sports Baseball
Day 1 player in a top club and a big spender. Game is nothing but a money grab. 2 updates in and no real fixes to player issues and concerns. I’m done spending and so is my club until the devs actually made the game better.
Pay to play and a cash grab takes advantage of players.
I’ve downloaded this game because I had high hopes for it. I’ve been thoroughly disappointed with the quality of players and the cost associated with getting a decent player. The developers know exactly what they’re doing. The odds are not in your favor when spending gold to try and collect ultra rare players and higher. I’ve spent way more money than I want to admit on this game just to get cheated out and they do not care. I like the camaraderie with the other players, but this game is just absolute trash. If you’re not gonna spend at least $500 a month just to be a decent player in power, don’t bother. And I’ve also purchased gold and other things directly from their website to bypass Apple so I’m definitely in the $1000s of dollars spent in the course of almost 3 months. I know it’s my decision to spend money, but thinking they will change the algorithm to let you win. Decent players is an absolute joke.
You should definitely be ashamed of yourselves developers for taking advantage of a great group of people that just wanna play a game and don’t mind spending money, but don’t wanna be messed over royally. Greedy! Greedy! GREEDY DEVELOPERS!

Terrible
The worst mobile game I’ve ever played have to spend money to win
👎🏽
They care more about guys having sex with guys than they do about baseball. Celebrating sex degeneracy month and I deleted the game.
They Rob and Steal
The owners of this game are so money hungry it’s comical. Charge $99 to get 1 player. What is that? Then when you spend 1k gold on a 1k gold box and get the best player (Arraez) they take him from your team and claim it’s not true! I’ve spent thousands on this game along with so many other players and they treat us with disrespect and think we’re stupid. They’re taking advantage of people who absolutely love this game and support them and it’s just a matter of time before mass exodus happens and they lose all their best supporters.
Impossible Odds
This game is terrible. A 22% chance to win is more like a 0.1% chance or at least in the playoffs. Don’t want to play regular season games? Just sim them. There basically pointless anyways. It feels like every hit is scripted. Ground out after ground out after ground out and then the occasional fly out. And then the 1% of the time you do hit a home run to take the lead by one the AI puts 8 points down your throat the next inning. It’s terrible. I don’t know how much money you have to spend to make this game playable, but it’s probably somewhere in the range of the 2026 Dodgers total player salary total. This game is awful.
Sucks
Don’t get this game. It actually does
Cheat. Get high enough and it won’t let you get passed a certain playoff level by keep all your hits grounders. Apparently the makers are poor excuses for game designers. Stay away from this designer

Ridiculously Flawed
Don’t even bother, once you get through the first 4 levels and hit pro you stand NO chance unless you fork out money into this game.
All you do is hit ground balls and the computer scores 5 plus runs every other inning making it impossible for you to have a chance. Don’t waste your time!

Scam
The game is a complete scam. When you are doing good it does everything to make sure you’re out in the final game of the season and makes your players play horrible
Not for me
Celebrating pride month? I’m out.
Garbage, Scripted game
Dont spend any money on it. Feels very scripted and based on random events (leaning heavily towards pushing you to buy packs) with no skill involved, also anytime you have a runner on first with 0 or 1 out…you can almost guarantee to hit into a double play. You’ll beat teams with ease leading up to the playoffs, but then your team suddenly becomes trash and can’t hit while your defense gives up runs every inning. Very pay to win, avoid.
Pride month
They are supporting pride month and I don’t want that on my phone
Terrible
How tf is he throwing it from right field all the 3rd when my spend is 80% game is terrible
Player performance changes
The player’s performance changes during playoff games. The players you use to consistently hit home runs during season games can barely hit the ball out of the infield during playoff games. When they do manage to make a hit to the out field it either short or right at the wall and caught. It’s very frustrating.
MLB the show 26 mobile
Hey every one the mobile version of MLB the show 26 is out now it’s amazing! Five stars 👍👍
Pay to Win Only
Although enjoyable sometimes, you’re going hit a wall if you want get past to higher levels, unless you pay for premium packs, coins, etc., to level up your team to an extremely high rank. Otherwise you’ll just be hitting ground balls and all of sudden the opposing team will score 10 runs in 1 inning, making it impossible to catch up. Fun while it lasted, but very rigged.
DELETE THIS
IT'S TERRIBLE EVERY TIME I GET A HOME RUN I GET OUT SOMEHOW AN WHEN I HIT IT I GET OUT ALSO MY TEAM SUCKS AND CANT HIT HARD
The worst
This is the worst baseball game ever I literally would do great in the normal season but as soon as I got to the playoffs I would hit a pop up or a grounder to the first baseman every time I spent 6 hours trying to beat one team that I was better than I broke my phone playing this game one star
Garbage RNG App
No matter what you do it’s impossible to hit the ball well. Even good swings are just lazy fly balls and half the time they just bait you with balls caught at the wall. It’s impossible to get good at this game when every good item is locked behind a paywall and trying to get a good team for level 5-6 still takes forever because the only way to get FTP rewards is to win championships which become impossible at level 5-6 for newer players.
PAY TO WIN
Good look getting through the “playoff” game even with your stats maxed out. It’s an obvious pay to win scheme
Update killed it
Loved loved loved this game. Downloaded the update. No it won’t load. Disappointed
Crashes
My iPad is up-to-date to 26 in Apple, but your game keeps crashing and it’s the only one that does it. I deleted it 100 times it does not do anything. I cannot play this game because of it keeps crashing all the time so unless you can do some that will end the crashing. I have to say goodbye to the game.
Classic p2w game
You will hit a point not very far in this game where it’s basically unplayable since you can’t upgrade anyone without spending real money since you will never have enough xp. Spent a week trying to win a playoff game but couldn’t since I couldn’t get enough xp to upgrade players. Was fun at first but now it’s unbearable. Will be deleting
A terrible P2W
Do not play this game. I never thought a game could be more p2w than tap sports baseball but this game definitely is. They get more and more greedy with every update. Literally nothing but a cash grab game. Stay far away if you’re smart.
Was decent until an update
Game was decent until an update and has made the game unplayable for almost a week. Support is aware but has no timeline to fix the issue if you are using an I pad. Which is not much of an answer.
Game doesn’t work
50 to 60% of the time the game crashes. Occasionally, also the game will go into his gray screen state where you can’t click it. Poorly made slop
Bad Play
This app worked ok until the update, after the update there are screen blackouts and game drops during play.
Game no longer works
After recent update the screen blanks out after you start the game and you can’t hit the ball. Was great game before update.
Rigged playoffs teams
The game is great until you get to pro level 8 playoffs. That’s when the game wants you to pay for players to help your team win. Also you never can land on rare players unless you spend money
The computer generated teams are rigged to where you lose in playoffs matches

Save your time
A zero skill game. The boss battles are completely rigged and they don’t let you win until you buy something to upgrade the team.
It’s OK
The game play is decently fun. The in app support is trash! You can definitely tell they care more about the parts of the game that get you to spend money more. There season pass doesn’t have enough levels I don’t understand why it isn’t just infinite. Your personal level as of right now is just capped at 39 so it’s not really possible to actually play a challenging game once you get there.
Pay to move on
Really don’t enjoy when games clearly are programmed to not let you progress at a consistent rate without paying money for their expensive bundles….
It’s not up to you whether you win or lose and that’s why this game only got two stars
While the game is ok game I feel that the game has too much control over what happens. see if a lower team go up against a high rank team then they automatically lose what should not because I’ve seen lower ratings beat higher in the real game so it’s an OK game and fun to play but they need to loosen up that game control. We should have control over the game and what happened. About our skills and that is the reason for me giving three stars instead of five if the developers can change that than this will be a All-Star game I wish people would come on here the truth instead of just being like this game is amazing. It’s OK. Game.
Pride
Not bad until you had to go to the Pride BS! Game was simplistic, not overly challenging and it was easy to do away with.
Paywall is trash
Horrible game play unless you pay for packs. I’ve been stuck on one game for three days. Can not hit a home run , everything you hit goes directly to the other team. Bs game , it will waste your time
Impossible fielding
I hit so many balls that where basehits and the characters cant possibly get there but they do. Like I hit a line drive over third base and the short stop caught it. This game is so ah.
Batting
It’s honestly a 40% chance of getting a good hit but the 60% is you just getting out (do not recommend)
Glitches
Great game but you’ll eventually get tired of trying to play a whole game without the app closing out automatically and loosing your progress on games. I hoped they would fix this in the last 2 updates but still same issue. I’ve basically stopped playing because the app keeps closing mid game.
