From BoardGameGeek
Fast Inning Baseball (FIB) is a solitaire, quick-play, card & dice game inspired by the “condensed game” format of major league baseball websites, where video highlights are shared an inning at a time. The game engine uses a combination of team and individual player qualities to rate teams on scoring ability, home run hitting power, pitching, run prevention and defense. With FIB, each game will take 10 minutes or less to play and will produce a basic line score including runs, hits, and errors. Pitcher decisions and key AB's including home runs can also be tracked. Some run scoring events will be automatic, but many will be dependent on pitcher grades, or a pitcher vs. batter matchup. The game was designed to play fast, but provide compelling gameplay and narrative drama. -description from designer
