Built for betting – built for real
Featuring all 30 Major League Baseball (MLB) teams and developed with real-world data from the MLB, Virtual Baseball In-Play offers unrivalled detail and realism.
High quality video with broadcast style transitions keeps punters interested while state-of-the-art motion capture from professional athletes ensures the virtual avatars move and react like real players. This is enhanced through our unique partnership with the MLB as each game uses actual team names, official uniforms and MLB branding – directly appealing to MLB fans who also want ‘as-real’ team strengths and player stats.
With games lasting, on average, 177 minutes, the inclusion of common and rare on-field actions keeps punters glued to the action.

EXPAND YOUR LIVE BETTING PORTFOLIO WITH VIRTUAL BASEBALL
Virtual Baseball In-Play offers 60 betting markets and the three basic lines for baseball betting, Total Runs, Money Line and Run Line.
Total Runs. Also known as over/under odds, punters predict how many runs they think will be scored during the game by both teams combined.
Money Line. Easily the most popular betting type, punters simply wager on which team they think will win (not by how much they will win).
Run Line. Similar to Money Line, but here, a team must win by two or more runs.
Punters can bet on direct outcomes or on a wide range of in-game events, including pitch speed, next hit result, will there be another inning, and much more.
Markets also offer a range of betting times from a full game (on average 177 minutes) to a single pitch (20 seconds).
Ensuring punters can play how they want, when they want, wherever they are.
ALL BETTING MARKETS IN DETAIL
With 60 betting markets on offer, punters have an impressive range of options to choose from – with the ability to sort their personal markets and have them available at a glance via the gaming platform’s Favourites tab.
