One Pitch Baseball: The baseball manager you play by ear.
One Pitch Baseball puts you in the dugout of a swamp-league ball club and hands you every decision that matters: the call at the plate, the bullpen, the lineup, the trade deadline and the draft. It was built for VoiceOver from the start, so every play is announced as it happens.

Who it’s for
One Pitch Baseball is for baseball fans who want to manage, not just watch.
- Blind and low-vision fans: with VoiceOver on, every play, pitching change and injury is announced.
- Strategy and sim fans who want a whole franchise: the draft, prospects, trades and free agency, season after season.
- Anyone short on time: one decision per at-bat keeps games quick, and you can sim ahead whenever you like.
Features
Make the call, one at-bat at a time
Each plate appearance comes down to a single decision. At the plate: swing away, work the count, bunt, squeeze or hit-and-run, with a steal riding along. On the mound: pitch to him, challenge him, pitch around him or walk him.
Set the infield and outfield, pinch-hit and pinch-run, or sim an at-bat, skip to your next turn, or sim the rest of the game.
Manage the bullpen like it matters
A reliever needs three batters’ time to warm up, only two can warm up at once, and a pitcher left warming too long goes cold again. Fatigue carries over between outings, and every arm tells you how many batters he has left.
Build a dynasty
Manage one club in a league of 4, 8, 16 or 32, over a 10-game sprint or a full 162. After the season, players age, veterans retire, prospects grow, and the league moves into free agency and a three-round draft.
Trade with rival front offices, who weigh age, ability and their own needs, or let them name their price with Find a Trade and Shop a Player.
A league with some character
Every player has an 8-bit portrait, a hometown, a school and a draft record. A League News wire files stat races, injuries, trades and the occasional gator escorted from a dugout.
See it in action
A silent screen recording of the first inning of a game: one call per plate appearance, and the result in a line of play-by-play.
No sound. Recorded on an iPhone simulator and sped up about five times.
What happens in this video
- The Snag Harbor River Rats are in the field. The screen shows the score, the bases, the batter and pitcher, and four calls: Pitch to Him, Challenge Him, Pitch Around and Intentional Walk.
- Pitch to Him is chosen. The play runs and the result is written out: “Perry pokes one to right — a single.” The runner appears on the bases.
- More calls follow, each with its own line of play-by-play, until the third out ends the half-inning.
- The half-inning flips and the same screen now offers batting calls — Swing Away, Work the Count and Bunt for a Hit — with the bench and bullpen below.
Accessibility
One Pitch Baseball was built for VoiceOver from the first line of code.
- With VoiceOver on, every play, pitching change, bullpen note and injury is announced, and urgent news can interrupt.
- Plays are spoken by VoiceOver itself, so they use your own voice and speaking rate.
- Press Situation at any time to hear the inning, outs, runners, score, batter and pitcher.
- Controls stay in the same order from play to play, so your swipes land where you expect.
- Reorder your lineup and pitching staff with VoiceOver actions such as Move up and Move to bullpen, and Coach Tips walk you through your first game.
Privacy
One Pitch Baseball collects no data. The game itself plays entirely offline.
- No ads, no analytics and no account. Game Center and the optional purchases go through Apple.
- Your league is saved on your device.
Common questions
Do I need VoiceOver to play?
No. You can play by looking at the screen. With VoiceOver on, every play is announced and the whole game can be played by ear.
How long is a season?
You choose: 10, 20, 40, 81 or 162 games, in a league of 4, 8, 16 or 32 teams. You manage one of them, and the computer runs the rest.
Are these real teams and players?
No. The clubs come from swamp towns such as Muck City and Gator Gulch, and the players are fictional.
How much does One Pitch Baseball cost?
Your first season is free: every league size and length, the postseason, watching games play themselves and the Trophy Room. Dynasty, a one-time $4.99 purchase, carries your league into the offseason, free agency, the draft and every season after. It is not a subscription, and there are no ads. Anyone who downloaded One Pitch Baseball before version 2026.2 gets Dynasty free, and optional tips unlock nothing.
Can I play offline?
Yes. Games never need the internet, and your league is saved on your device. Only Game Center and the App Store connect, and neither is needed to play.
