Robert A. Jung reviewed the game which was published on IGN. In his final verdict he wrote "Baseball Heroes is a very good translation of the sport, though not a perfect game. It has a few rough spots that will try some people, but for the most part this is a quality title and a showcase game for the Lynx." Giving it a final score of 8 out of 10.{{Cite web |title=Baseball Heroes |url=https://www.ign.com/games/baseball-heroes |access-date=2023-11-30 |website=IGN |language=en}}
