The basic idea is that there are no teams, and for each game you draft your team from a lot of sixty players. Every single player available has a different skill set. But the game doesn't just limit the player abilities to power, contact, speed, and arm strength. A few have the ability to climb fences, fly at night, or swim in water. Yeah, a few fields have puddles in addition to the occasional tree trunk or rock. One guy even has the ability to avoid being tagged out (occasionally).
