About This Machine
Big League, manufactured by Genco Manufacturing Company in February 1950, is not a pinball machine. Genco's own records show only two sample units were ever built, and the game never reached production. A handwritten list compiled by designer Steve Kordek grouped it with other 1950 non-pinball games rather than with Genco's pinball line.
Little else is documented about Big League's gameplay, theme, or design - its extreme rarity, with only two known units, means most details about the machine remain unconfirmed.
Note that this 1950 Big League is a distinct, unrelated title from Genco's earlier 1940 pinball machine of the same name.
