The 2026 MLB season is already in full swing — the longest grind in major sport, with games nearly every single day. Stop running your group on a spreadsheet that dies in May. The Tipoff handles everything automatically, so your group keeps going from tonight's game all the way to the final out of the regular season.

Spreadsheets get forgotten. Group chats go quiet by the second week. The person running it gets tired of updating scores by hand — and baseball plays almost every single day, which makes that job brutal. The Tipoff was built for a genuine marathon: 162 games across 30 teams, from Opening Day in March to the final week of the wild card race. Whether it's your office, your family group chat, your college roommates, or a bunch of siblings who've argued about baseball for twenty years — the engagement keeps going because the platform keeps running itself.
When tonight's games get underway, the Match Wall activates for every game your group tipped. You see everyone reacting to the same walk-off, the same blown save, the same ninth-inning swing in real time. Not a generic feed. Your group, your picks, your moments.
MLB is 162 games across 30 teams — the longest season in major sport. Every feature in The Tipoff is designed to keep your group engaged from Opening Day in March to the final week of the wild card race in October.
Every group runs on a private leaderboard — but every tipper also earns a rank on the global leaderboard alongside MLB fans from around the world. Your group's best tipper might be one of the best MLB tippers on the planet. Now you'll know.
“You beat everyone in your group. Now find out if you're one of the best MLB tippers in the world.”

“My dad's been taking me to games since I was seven, and our family group chat has argued about the Cardinals for twenty years without ever keeping real score. We switched to The Tipoff for the stretch run this year and it just works — results update automatically, the leaderboard runs itself, and three generations of us are finally settling who actually knows this team.”

Every “free” prediction game you've seen has a bookmaker behind it somewhere. This one doesn't.
