10th Inning

Meet 10th Inning, a rare gem from the early days of pinball history. Produced by United Manufacturing Company in 1948, this electro-mechanical pinball machine taps into the nation's growing enthusiasm for baseball during the post-war era.

10th Inning features two flippers and an unusually high count of 11 kick-out holes, providing a challenging playfield as the ball careens through the layout. A standout feature is its rotating upper playfield, which adds an extra layer of excitement and unpredictability to gameplay. Advertised as compact, measuring just 28 inches long by 16 inches wide including its stand, 10th Inning was designed to fit into tight spaces in a recreation room or bar.

Specific details about the machine's designer remain unknown, but its baseball theme and distinctive rotating playfield mechanic make 10th Inning a notable and rare find for collectors interested in the early post-war era of pinball.
