Out of the Park Baseball 20’s New Perfect Team Cards - The Generations Collection
Baseball is based on history, both good and bad. In many ways, the sport traces itself along the arc of American society. Out of the Park Baseball 20’s newest Perfect Team card collection is a unique set, comprising players whose career overlap at the point of one player retiring as a new one debuts. Starting in 1890 with the debut of Kid Nichols and ending in 2019 with the retirement of Brian McCann, it’s a wonderful way to look across the spectrum of our favorite sport!

If you’re a true die-hard baseball fan, one video game simulation just isn’t enough. As someone who plays MLB The Show year after year and marvels at how consistently great the series continues to be, I’ve still found myself wondering from time to time: what else is out there? Maybe it’s born out of some fatigue at looking at The Show’s familiar presentation and incremental improvements over such a long period of time. Maybe I was just really excited about baseball season finally starting after a long winter. But whatever the reason, I was anxious to see what other baseball video games had to offer.
