INTRODUCING THE FIRST INTERACTIVE BASEBALL BAT

--HOME RUN DERBY
1or 2 player game. How many home runs can you hit?

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

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
When you swing and hit the ball, wait for the "delay" to complete itself (the ball traveling across screen). Then you'll see a

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!
