Earl Weaver Baseball
DOSSports
Earl Weaver Baseball is a baseball simulation developed by Mirage Graphics and published by Electronic Arts for DOS in 1987. It combines on-field baseball with detailed managerial decision-making, allowing players to control pitching, batting, fielding, lineups, and substitutions rather than simply playing an arcade-style game. The game is built around statistical baseball and the tactical approach associated with Baltimore Orioles manager Earl Weaver. Players can manage a team, compete against computer opponents, or play another human. Its presentation and unusually sophisticated artificial intelligence helped it earn a strong historical reputation among early computer sports simulations, although its interface requires patience and familiarity with baseball terminology.
How is this list kept current?
How rankings are calculated
The list is generated from active EmuGamers catalog entries. Votes and play activity determine order; browser compatibility is reported separately and does not turn an untested game into a higher-ranked recommendation.
| Order | Signal | How it is used |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
