Out of the Park Baseball (abbreviated as OOTP) is a text-based baseball simulation for career, historical, and fictional play. Starting with OOTP 16, the game has licenses for Major League Baseball and Minor League Baseball. The first version was released in May 1999 with the help of sportswriter Sean Lahman, who sold the game through his website. This initial version received attention from several online gaming sites. The breakthrough release came in 2001 with OOTP 3. In 2002, lead developer Markus Heinsohn joined with other independent developers to form .400 Software Studios to publish OOTP 5. Heinsohn and a few others split from .400 Software Studios in mid-2003 to continue work on the OOTP series as well as Inside the Park Baseball. More information...
