Baseball

Baseball is divided into 2 teams to take turns to bat and pitch, to determine the outcome by scoring. When batting, aim at the 9th square of the batting area and control the path and timing of the swing. When pitching, the pitch type is selected first, then the path is selected and the ball is pitched. As long as you use abilities such as full-strike, strike, and best pitching through the power, you can also develop a strong strategy. In addition, you can also perform abilities such as stealing, running, returning to the base, and holding the ball to direct the entire team. This way, you can play more in the way you want.
