The AllMusic review by "Blue" Gene Tyranny awarded the album 4 stars calling it "Subtle, droll, hilarious takes on the trivia of baseball sounds".[2]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz observed: "Though a collaborative effort, this more and more feels like a Zorn project. It is one of the great improvisation records of the decade and is a key item in what turned out to be a vintage year... A record to cherish".[3]
