picked up a dedicated atari relief pitcher proto #4.

I might be the only one who cares about relief pitcher, as its not the best baseball game. But I like atari drawer cabs and it was a proto with a proto board in it(also came with proto klax pcb. I think an early version of klax as the tile colors look different. I will have to look into this). Game was taken home by ab ex atari employee.

It was broken when I got it, but I fixed it. Too bad part of the CP overlay was missing. Also, the side sticker lost part of its stick. What is a good glue to spray to reattach it?
Here are pics:

What's different from prototype to production on the relief pitcher.

probably not much. I would need to dig out my pcb and try to compare. This is not the 1st relief pitcher I have seen. One had the card dispenser on it. I don't know if that one was proto.

I had one of those, not dedicated but it was a decent baseball game. Game play was pretty good (coming from a non-baseball fan).

I have NOS side art and I think a manual for that game if you ever do any restoration on it contact me.

Any decent spray adhesive will work.. Just mask around it as the glue goes everywhere.

The last time I tried spray adhesive was on a track and field that had a corner of its side art lifting. I think I used 3m spray adhesive 77 and it like made the side art bubble/melt/shrink/spider. So a little concerend about using it. I think I got it with some pool table stuff.

Thanks for the side art offer. I don't see need to replace it, but I will keep it in mind. I have the manual for it already.

Relief Pitcher is underrated as a baseball game IMHO. I have one in a converted Defender cab. Game play is good (I was an RBI Baseball/World Series guy BITD), but you gotta love HOF (and now deceased) broadcaster Jack Buck's actual voice clips thrown in there. Pretty cool.

I am more of a clutch hitter fan(A's fan and the team is just after the world series). I have basebal stars pro and 2020 baseball for the neogeo. I just got stv major leage baseball, but I have not played it. I have only played dynamite baseball once or twice and its graphics are good. Would like to see a world series baseball.
