Don Daglow (USA) has been active in the development of baseball games for 43 years, as of July 2014. He wrote the first interactive baseball game, Computer Baseball, on a DEC PDP-10 mainframe at Pomona College, California, USA, in 1971.


Don Daglow attempted to produce Tony La Russa's Baseball with Fans in 2012 using money acquired via Kickstarter – he asked for US$249,000 (£158,000, 187,000 Euros) but only US$2,515 (£1,599, 1,885 Euros) was pledged.

Daglow ported Computer Baseball to the Apple II in 1981 and added graphics to it a year later. He helped produce Intellivision World Series Baseball (Intellivision, 1983), which was the first game to use multiple camera angles. He also worked on Earl Weaver Baseball (1987, EA) and Old Time Baseball (Stormfront Studios, 1995). In 2003 he was given the CGE Achievement Award for "groundbreaking accomplishments that shaped the Video Game Industry".
