Earl Weaver Baseball is an unreleased baseball game for the Sega Mega Drive. While it shares a name with a 1987 computer game, this Mega Drive version appears to have been an entirely different simulation, much like the relationship with John Madden Football and its computer counterparts.
Despite appearing at Summer CES 1991, Earl Weaver Baseball was cancelled for unknown reasons, though a prototype is known to exist. EA's line of baseball games during the era meant that computer versions of Earl Weaver Baseball and Earl Weaver Baseball II had been released in 1987 and 1990, respectively, and a new series starting with Tony La Russa's Ultimate Baseball had began in 1991. The game was confirmed to be cancelled by at least mid-1992.[2] There is a possibility that this game either became, or was replaced by the Mega Drive release of Tony La Russa Baseball in 1993.
