"MLB SportsClix Extra Bases introduces new players, rookies and trades that vastly increase the playability and collectable aspect of MLB SportsClix," said Jordan Weisman, WizKids CEO. "With the outstanding success of SportsClix, MLB SportsClix Extra Bases will take the game to even greater heights."
