In the ''[[ | In the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise, Baseballs first appear in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' as projectiles used by [[Chargin' Chuck|Confused Chucks]]. They are thrown at constant pace, traveling on a horizontal line through the air. They cannot be stopped or destroyed and can damage [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] if they hit them. However, Confused Chucks will stop throwing baseballs if attacked, upon which they start behaving like regular Chargin' Chucks. | ||

Baseballs appear in ''Super Mario 3D World | Baseballs appear in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' as throwable objects. They can be found lying around in various places, being introduced in [[Really Rolling Hills]]. Players can pick them up and throw them at other enemies to defeat them; if other players are hit, they are knocked back (but not hurt or defeated). In addition, baseballs can be used to get [[Green Star]]s from a distance, and the [[World 6 (Super Mario 3D World)|World 6]] [[Mystery House]] requires the use of baseballs to obtain all Green Stars. | ||
In the ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury#Bowser's Fury|Bowser's Fury]]'' campaign of ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury'', baseballs are found sparingly across [[Lake Lapcat]]. [[Kitten]]s can be seen playing with them if Mario is not close, and they can be sent flying upon contact by Mario, [[Bowser Jr.]], or [[Plessie]]. When [[Fury Bowser]] is active, baseballs are able to extinguish his falling fireballs, and their resulting lava puddles, upon contact.<ref> | In the ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury#Bowser's Fury|Bowser's Fury]]'' campaign of ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]'', baseballs are found sparingly across [[Lake Lapcat]].

Baseballs are | Baseballs are elementary objects in the {{wp|baseball|sport of the same name}}, which is the focus of ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]'', as well as a part of ''[[Mario Sports Superstars]]''. Here, baseballs are used in the same fashion as in real life: pitchers throw them to batters, the batters swing and attempt to hit them, and fielders try to catch the ball before the batters and runners advance around the base. However, some fictional spins are added to the sport, including [[Star Skill]]s and [[Error Item]]s, which cause baseballs to gain qualities with special effects. | ||

Their movement is determined by their appearance: white baseballs travel on an arc-shaped path, red baseballs travel straight forward, and mushroom-patterned baseballs travel in a zigzag way. The players must bat them to the rhythm of the music. | ||

In ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', if Mario scores exactly 21 points in the minigame in the [[Shuriken Dojo]] at [[Shogun Studios]], he receives a baseball signed by the Toad behind the counter. Mario later exchanges this baseball for the [[Bone (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Bone]] from two [[Dry Bones]] elsewhere in the park. | In ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', if Mario scores exactly 21 points in the minigame in the [[Shuriken Dojo]] at [[Shogun Studios]], he receives a baseball signed by the Toad behind the counter.
