Vertically framed backglass with a gold-yellow outer border. A yellow ribbon banner curves across the top carrying the title: the word United's in small white letters on a red angled tab at the upper left, then Major League Baseball in large purple cursive script outlined in white and black, tilted and rising to the right. Immediately below, a black arched band reads GAMES in white block capitals. Two slanted rows of numbered windows fill the upper third: the top row shows 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 in alternating red, yellow and green tiles with white and black numerals, and a second staggered row beneath shows 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. The central panel is a green baseball field seen from directly above, with pale tan infield dirt, a small white pitcher's mound at centre and a diamond of base paths; eight tiny white-uniformed players are scattered across the field casting long white shadows, one standing on the mound. At the bottom, a purple-and-white counter panel reads Runs / SPINS / RUNS FAVOUR in white script and capitals above four purple windows showing 1 2 3 4 in orange-yellow numerals. Spectators line the lower edge behind a white rail: at lower left a man in a dark cap and blue shirt, a figure in a bright red top with a purple-and-yellow flag on a pole, and a man in a white-and-red cap; at lower right a blonde woman in profile with red lips facing left, and beside her a man in a white cap with a red brim in a green shirt.
