What is MLBguessr?

MLBguessr is a baseball history challenge in five rounds, each increasing in difficulty. Every round shows you a moment from baseball history captured in a broadcast screenshot.

Your job: identify where and when it happened.

Guess the ballpark on the map, choose the month and year, and submit your guess. After five rounds, you’ll get a shareable scorecard showing your total.

Every day is a new, curated five-round journey.

How Scoring Works

Each round is worth 10,000 points — 5,000 for location and 5,000 for date.

• Location: forgiving curve (500-mile scale) with bonuses for being within 25 miles.
• Date: uses a generous 30-month scale, so being 1-3 years off still earns strong points.
• Calibrated for a 75-year dataset, rewarding good baseball instincts over pixel perfection.

Meet the Architect

MLBguessr was built by a historian, teacher, and lifelong baseball obsessive -- and is dedicated to his dad, an 80-grade baseball fan.

This game lives at the intersection of memory, geography, and the strange details that make baseball feel bigger than itself.
