Hand Baseball

Instructions

Press the green flag to start. You play against the computer. The goal is to get more runs than your opponent in 1 inning. Extra innings with a runner on second base will be played in case of a draw. If you chose to pitch first, the computer bats in the top inning, you bat in the bottom inning and vice-versa. While you are pitching, you will have the option to choose between 10 numbers (1-10) and every time you click a number the computer will also choose a random number from 1-11 and the sum of the numbers will be displayed at the left of the screen below the computer's chosen number. A strike will be recorded if the sum of your number and the computer's number is odd (only if the computer's number is not 11) and a ball will be recorded if the sum of your number and the computer's number is even (only if the computer's number is not 11). 3 strikes results in 1 out and 4 balls will result in a walk (1 additional base will become occupied). When all 3 bases are occupied and a walk is recorded, 1 run will be recorded and the 3 bases will remain occupied. If the numbers which you choose and the computer chooses are the same, a home run will be recorded which clears the bases and scores anywhere between 1 and 4 runs (depending on how many bases are occupied). While you are pitching, the computer will also have the option to attempt to hit a single (in which case the computer's chosen number will be 11) and if you had chosen an odd number the computer will successfully hit a single (advancing every baserunner and the batter by 1 base and if all 3 bases were occupied a run would score and all the bases would remain occupied), however if you had chosen an even number, a fly out will be recorded and the bases occupied will remain the same. No baserunner will advance, tag up, except a runner on 3rd base if there is less than 2 outs in the inning (sac fly). While you are batting your role will be reversed with the computer from when you were pitching. You will also have the option to attempt to hit singles (by clicking the small bat icon in the baseball to the right of the number 10). In case you attempt to hit, your chosen number will be 11 and the computer's chosen number will be the sum minus 11. The bases occupied, balls, strikes, outs, runs scored by each team, pitches in the half inning and the sum of your number and the computer's chosen number will all be displayed on the screen. There is also the option to mute and unmute the sound effects in the bottom right of the screen. Please don't spam the buttons. There is a small delay of 0.75 seconds between when you can choose numbers in order to prevent spamming. That's all you need to know in order to play! Good luck!
