How to play Baseball Bat

Baseball Bat is a one-button batting game seen from behind home plate. The pitcher winds up, the ball comes in, and you tap, click or press Space as it reaches the plate. Timing decides everything: swing early and you pull the ball towards the left foul line, swing late and it slices right, hit it dead on for a perfect contact and a long drive. A timing bar after every swing shows how close you were.

Home Run Derby gives you ten swings per round and a target number of home runs. Every round the fence moves out four metres, the pitches get faster and new ones appear: changeup, curveball, slider, sinker and a wobbling knuckleball. Chain home runs for a combo multiplier up to x3 and earn bonus points for distance and perfect hits. Day turns to sunset and then to a floodlit night as you advance.

3 Outs is an endless mode: a hit is a single, double, triple or home run, fielders catch fly balls and grounders, and swinging and missing, looking at strikes and fouls with two strikes count against you. Switch on Manual aim to choose the bat height yourself for extra control and 25 percent more points. Your best scores, longest home run and total home runs are saved on your device.

FAQ

How do I hit a home run?

Tap as the ball reaches the plate. The closer to dead on, the harder the ball is hit; the timing bar after each swing shows how early or late you were. In round 1 the fence is 70 m away, so a good swing is enough.

What happens if I swing early or late?

Early swings pull the ball towards the left foul line, late swings send it to the right. Far too early or late is a miss, and a ball sent past the foul lines is a foul.

What does Manual aim do?

The bat height follows where you click or tap. Hit the ball a little under its middle to lift it; hit over it and it chops into the ground. It is harder but gives 25 percent more points.

Which pitches will I face?

Fastballs first, then a changeup, curveball, slider, sinker and knuckleball as you reach higher rounds or levels. Early rounds show the pitch name as a hint.

Is Baseball Bat free?

Yes. It is free to play in your browser, with no download and no account.

Can I play on my phone?

Yes. It runs on phones, tablets and computers. Tap anywhere (or the SWING button) to swing as the ball reaches the plate. With Manual aim, tap at the height where the ball crosses the plate.
