INTRODUCING THE FIRST INTERACTIVE BASEBALL BAT

Welcome to the first truly interactive baseball video game.  You
actually swing a bat in order to hit the ball on the video screen!

3 GAMES PLUS "TOY" MODE

There are three baseball games to play:
-- HOME RUN DERBY

1 or 2 player game.  How many home runs can you hit?

-- 9 INNING GAME (Batting only)

1 or 2 player game.  Players bat and run the bases but do 
not field.

-- 9 INNING GAME (Batting and Fielding)

2 player game only.  Players bat and also play the field.  Batters
do not control running as in game 2.  Instead, running is an 
automatic feature in game 3.

-- TOY MODE

Practice your swings and hear the
"crack" of the bat.

PLAY BALL

Press the ON/START  button to turn on the game.  Pressing the
ON/START button once puts you in "Toy mode". Practice your
swings and hear the "crack" of the bat. Press ON/START again
to play the default game: Home Run Derby.

NUMBER OF PLAYERS
Use the SELECT button to select number of players:  1 or 2.
Press the ON/START button to confirm number of players.

GAME MODE
Now use the SELECT button again to
select from the 3 game modes:  HOME
RUN DERBY...9 INNING GAME (Batting
Only)...9 INNING GAME (Batting and
Fielding).   Press the ON/START button
to confirm game selection and to start the
game!

HOLD THE BAT
Hold the bat like a regular bat.

Press the PITCH BUTTON and the pitcher
pitches the ball.  The pitcher is crafty!  He
can throw fastballs, curves, and sinkerballs.
 He can also change speeds well.

Watch the ball as the pitcher fires it!  Then
as the ball approaches home plate,
SWING!

If you make contact with the pitch, you'll
hear the "crack" of the bat on ball and
actually FEEL the impact as the ball goes
flying across the LCD screen!  After the
ball is hit, there is a short delay (you'll see
the ball traveling through the air), so that
you have the time to re-position yourself
after the swing to view the play and be in
position to use the control buttons if
necessary.

GAME 1:  HOME RUN DERBY
There are 9 rounds of play.  Each round
consists of 6 swings.  You try to hit a home
run with each swing.

GET READY

TO SWING...

The hitter presses the PITCH button,
follows the pitch and then SWINGS THE
BAT!

If you hit a home run, you score.  If  you
swing and miss it, or you don't hit it well
enough to be a home run, it's just an OUT.
The scoring for home run derby is weighted
more heavily for clutch hitters who perform
well in the later rounds:

SCORING FOR HOME RUN DERBY
ROUNDS 1 -3

EACH HOME RUN 
COUNTS AS 1 RUN.

ROUNDS 4-6

EACH HOME RUN 
COUNTS AS 3 RUNS.

ROUNDS 7-8

EACH HOME RUN 
COUNTS AS 4 RUNS.

ROUND 9

EACH HOME RUN 
COUNTS AS 5 RUNS.

BONUS SWINGS
If you hit all 6 swings in a round for home
runs, you're given 1 free bonus swing at
the end of the round.

Your game will update your score after
each home run.  In a 1 player game, you
play straight through.  In a 2 player game,
players alternate.  Player 1 takes 6 swings,
then player 2 gets his six cuts.  Then back
to player 1 for the next round.

In a 2 player game, if the score is tied after
9 rounds, additional rounds are played until
one player has a  lead at the completion
of  a subsequent round.

FOLLOW THE

BALL

 AS IT

LEAVES THE

PITCHER'S HAND.

SWING THE BA

T!

IT MIGHT BE, IT

COULD BE,

IT IS!  HOME RUN!

GREAT SWING

!

GAME 2:  9 INNING GAME (Batting Only)
In a 1 player game, try for your highest score.  In a 2 player game,
you compete against another player.  If a 2 player game is tied
after 9 innings, extra innings are played until one player wins.
As in real baseball, if the visiting team (the team batting first),
scores in an extra inning, the home team still gets it's last at-bats!
 However, if the visiting team fails to score in the top half of an
extra inning and the home team manages to push a run across,
then the GAME IS OVER.

When you swing and hit the ball, wait for the
"delay" to complete itself (the ball traveling
across screen).  Then you'll see a close-up
of a runner running the bases!

The batter now uses the four BASE buttons
(BASE 1, BASE 2, BASE 3, HOME) to run
the bases.

RUNNING THE BASES
-- Press BASE 1 to run to first base.

-- Once you're at first, press BASE 2 to run

to second base (if you want to try to stretch
a single into a double).

-- Once you're at second, press BASE 3 to

run to third base (if you want to try to 
stretch a double into a triple.)

-- Once you're at third base, press HOME 

to run to home (if you want to try to stretch
a triple into an "inside-the-park" home run.

THERE'S THE

RUNNER

WHEN YOU PRESS BASE 1 AND BEAT THE
THROW TO FIRST BASE, YOU MIGHT WANT
TO KEEP PRESSING BASE BUTTONS TO
STRETCH YOUR HIT!  AS SOON AS YOU
MAKE IT TO FIRST, CONSIDER PRESSING
BASE 2 TO STRETCH YOUR SINGLE INTO A
DOUBLE!  YOU CAN KEEP TRACK OF ALL
RUNNERS ON THE GRID IN THE UPPER
RIGHT HAND CORNER OF THE SCREEN!

When you hit a HOME RUN, don't worry
about running the bases.  You will do your
"home run trot" automatically.

GAME 3:  (BATTING AND FIELDING)
Game 3 must be played by 2 players (no 1 player game).

In game 3, the runners run the bases automatically.  However,
once a ball is hit, the other player (the player not batting), uses
the four BASE buttons (BASE 1, BASE 2, BASE 3, and HOME)
to field and try to throw out  baserunners!

Press BASE 1 to field the ball and try to throw a runner out at
first base.

Press BASE 2 to field the ball and try to throw a runner out at
second base.

Press BASE 3 to field the ball and try to throw a runner out at
third base.

Press HOME to field the ball and try to throw a runner out at 
home plate.

IN GAME 3, AFTER A PLAYER HITS THE BALL,
TURN THE BAT OVER TO THE OTHER
PLAYER, SO HE CAN FIELD AND THROW!

KEEP AN EYE ON ALL THE BASERUNNERS
BY LOOKING AT THE GRID IN THE UPPER
RIGHT OF THE VIDEO SCREEN!  THERE'S A
RUNNER ROUNDING THIRD!  PRESS THE
"HOME" BUTTON TO HAVE A PLAY AT THE
PLATE!  THE RUNNER  IS....OUT AT HOME

!

If you get tired of  playing a particular game, you can press the
SELECT button at any time to exit the current game mode and
go back to the beginning and make new player and game selections.

After a game is complete, make your selections for the next game!
 With your own interactive baseball bat, there's always time for
one more game!
