New York, NY - August 11, in the year of our Lord 2011 - Now that the trade deadline has officially expired on every planet between Earth and IRK, the final Nicktoons MLB roster has been released. Characters from the casts of eight favorite shows vied for a coveted spot on the team and ultimately, 23 animated all-stars earned the right to go toe-to-toe with over 300 players from all 30 Major League Baseball® clubs. Taking the field next month, Nicktoons MLB will be available in stores on September 13th for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft featuring support for Kinect™ for Xbox 360, Wii™ system from Nintendo, and Nintendo DS™.

Baseball of this caliber can't be played in a sandlot, so Nicktoons MLB features a unique mix of 12 authentic and out-of-this world ballparks. Iconic locations include Wrigley Field (Chicago Cubs), Fenway Park (Boston Red Sox), Yankee Stadium (New York Yankees) and Dodger Stadium (Los Angeles Dodgers), along with the home fields for last year's World Series teams, AT&T Park (San Francisco Giants) and Rangers Ballpark in Arlington (Texas Rangers). The fantastical Nicktoons stadiums range from the underwater Poseidome (SpongeBob SquarePants) to the frozen Frosty Freeze Field (Fanboy and Chum Chum), as well as Air Temple Courtyard (Avatar: The Last Airbender), Yolkus Stadium (Planet Sheen), Ghost Zone Field (Danny Phantom), and IRKEN Field (Invader Zim).
