NEW YORK, The Major League Baseball Players
Association ("MLBPA") today announced that it has reached an agreement in
principle to grant sweeping rights to Take2 Interactive, Inc. It is the centerpiece of "Join the
Major Leagues @ your library ," a program created to celebrate and promote two
American classics -- baseball and libraries -- while heightening awareness of
21st Century literacy skills, such as using computers and other media and
knowing how to find, evaluate and use information. Unlike most contests, players are encouraged to look up
answers using both print and online sources at their library and participants
can even consult a librarian if they need assistance.
In addition to the grand-prize, 12 first-place prizes will be awarded,
including a copy of Promises to Keep, a book written by Jackie Robinson's
daughter Sharon Robinson, a baseball T-shirt and a poster featuring Jackie
Robinson.

2006 , Take2 will have exclusive rights among third-party publishers to develop
and market simulation, arcade and manager-style baseball video games on the
current and next-generation PlayStation, X-BOX , Nintendo, personal computer
and hand-held video game systems. At the same time, manufacturers of video
game systems will have the opportunity to develop and publish baseball
simulation games for their own platforms. "The
upcoming change in technology makes this the perfect time for us to implement
our plan for growing the business, and we have no doubt that Take2's proven
creativity and innovation, combined with their incredible distribution
strength and powerful commitment to baseball , will add real excitement and
depth to the video game marketplace.
