Gameplay
According to the ESRB listing:
This is a baseball simulation game that incorporates whimsical, fantasy elements. Players can compete in stadiums such as a ghost town, amidst Aztec ruins, or even inside of a stomach. Besides learning how to hit, throw, and catch, players can accidentally sink in quicksand or get stung by mettlesome bees. While in the "Innards Stadium," players might hear an occasional burp.[1]
The game retains similar gameplay to its predecessor.
Cover athlete
Like MLB 2K9, Tim Lincecum of the San Francisco Giants is the cover athlete, albeit in cartoon form.
