This translation is intended for people who already know English and are learning Japanese. It is not intended to be used to learn English, because the sentences in English may use strange or awkward wording in order to illustrate the vocabulary and grammar of the original Japanese.
Game title
Japanese
野球格闘リーグマン

Baseball Brawling League Men
- Clearly リーグマン is literally "League Man" rather than "League Men", but since this is used for the name of the group, and Japanese tends not to use plurals for loanwords, we'll take the liberty of translating it as "League Men".
