    Flippers (2), Pop bumpers (2), Passive bumpers (8), Kick-out holes (2). Mechanical backbox animation (men run bases). On the backglass, the home plate is incorrectly depicted 180 degrees from its proper placement on a real baseball diamond. The pointed end should face the catcher, not the pitcher.
    ipdb.notes
    This game is a conversion of Williams' 1948 'Yanks'. The conversion consists of a refinished playfield, repainted cabinet, refinished legs, multicolored backglass, and new coin chute. In The Billboard, Mar-4-1950 page 96, an article dated Feb-26 states that this game is in production using source games already received but that none will be delivered until April, to time it to baseball season.
