"Sluggin Champ" in the 1970's another "Grand Slam" "Extra Inning"
"Playball" "Homerun" culminating with this 1977 "Big Hit".

pinball machine ever made from the premier manufacture Gottlieb of
this era of pinball machines. In our opinion the best one they ever
made and the end of an era. Fun filled Sport themed pinball machine
