most highly regarded and successful baseball game has been souped up,
adding graphics, sound, and expansion disks. The entire CD product carries
a suggest retail price of $80.00 and is currently available.

The CD enhanced version of the highly successful La Russa II, provides
baseball fans a sense of realism that hasn't been possible until now. "It
is so realistic" states Chuck Kroegel, Vice President of SSI's Product
Development, "you can almost smell the hot dogs and taste the beer!" The
CD version uses close-up camera effects showing greater field detail,
right down the mow lines, wet dirt, and players leaping against the fence
at the warning track. Over 50% more detailed instant replays appear on the
jumbo video monitor in the ballpark - the largest amount of replays in any
baseball game. The familiar voice of Ron Barr, popular talk-radio sports
show host, is greatly enhanced attributed to a higher sample rate.
Improved sound effects and music, including interactive crowd noises which
are triggered by game play, capture ballpark atmosphere and the crack of
the bat.

baseball games available," by both professional players and by computer
game fans. So, in keeping with enhancing this CD version SSI has increased
statistical accuracy which takes into account every meaningful factor.

newer version of Tony now has over 500 authentic color portraits of
baseball's Hall-of-Famers. Each player is individually rated for his
