A decent Acclaim baseball game built around star Frank Thomas. Fine for MLB fans, but clearly overshadowed by RBI Baseball and EA contemporaries.

Frank Thomas Big Hurt Baseball (Mega Drive) price, value & rarity
Is Frank Thomas Big Hurt Baseball still worth playing in 2026?
An MLB licensed baseball simulation, Big Hurt Baseball bets on digitised sprites in Frank Thomas' likeness and rich statistical content. The production seeks realism but suffers from a certain heaviness, dated artificial intelligence and a sometimes sluggish pace against the genre's references. The title arrived late in the console's life. Its interest today stays mostly documentary, for fans of retro baseball or completists of the Mega Drive sports catalogue.
