On the back of many dart boards is a pathetic base ball game not worth playing.
I made one that is far more interesting with each baseball park in the National and American League mirroring the actual dimensions and idiosycrysis of each park. For example some parks give up lots of home runs and some don't.

The dart thrower is the pitcher which is similar to many such games but one may also try to throw out a scoring run (except when its a homer or walking in a run). You pitch half an inning with as little as 3 throws or a maximum that is unlimited. All the rules of baseball apply except if you get a double play the pitching 'team' decides which two runners are out. Also if a dart falls out it is a ball or if throwing out scoring runners - no play.

My lawyer says after I pay adjusted MLB royalties I make about 3 cents per pack (National League Pack or American League pack) but for the love of the game its going to market anyway. It was cheaper to just use the city name for the ball park instead of using the name Fenway or Boston Red Sox so I just use Boston.

Although each ball park dart board vinyl overlay is different, the same feature of a homeplate and foul ball areas are the same.

Here is Boston:

PS

Now that all the parks are done I am doing a war on terrorism dart game that is not as grim as it sounds. It works for fascist patriots as well as liberal peacniks.
