Does anyone else know anything about this board game. Its called Billy Ball, produced in 1982 by Tube Games, Inc in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Any info would be appreciated.

Never saw this before but I'm assuming it has to do with the Oakland A's. Billy Ball was a marketing thing about Billy Martin, the manager. But you probably knew that.

Yes, thanks. Curious to know about the production run...if the company made other games etc. Google search brings up nothing i can see.

Also during his time in Oakland Billy endorsed this Atari Real Baseball game:
