I would venture that this was the source of their creation. I have never seen any instructions of of how dominoes relate to baseball, but I am not a game aficianado. Still, if you and your buddies are bored sitting with a bunch of disks, use your imaginations like the kids of yore and apply it somehow to create a field of dreams.

Ben,
I agree with what Todd said about the PX7 discs not being used for a specific baseball themed game, but for some version of a dominoes game. And that is exactly why I mentioned about the directly related to baseball themed games that are out there, and included the reference to the baseball themed game site you can take a look at. The number of different baseball themed games that have come out over the years is absolutely astounding. If you and your buddies are looking to maybe find an old baseball themed game to actually play, there are a lot of options, just maybe not with the PX7 Dominos Discs.
