The camera is zoomed in on the first player, who is standing on home plate with a [[Shy Guy]] beside a basket of baseballs. The screen then splits into multiple screens, one for each player, and the minigame begins. | |||
==Gameplay== | |||
A Shy Guy throws a baseball at the character, and the player has to swing {{button|wii|wiimote}} and hit the ball. Occasionally, the Shy Guy throws a ball higher or lower than normal. The Shy Guys throw 20 balls at each player; after all the balls have been tossed, the minigame ends. The player(s) who hit(s) the most baseballs win(s) the minigame. In the 4-Player variant, it is possible for there not to be a loser. If no one gets any points or if both players tie in the Duel variant, a tie occurs. If both players break the current record with the same score in the Duel variant, it counts as a new record even though neither player won.<ref>[https://youtu.be/qVClu-EO7PQ?t=1m40s Example case]</ref>{{dead link}} This also applies to [[Saucer Swarm]]. | A Shy Guy throws a baseball at the character, and the player has to swing {{button|wii|wiimote}} and hit the ball.

Victorious characters perform their winning poses on a baseball field, while in the background the losing players run around the field, collecting the baseballs and tossing them into a bucket. If the results screen remains in Party Mode, the losers eventually finish picking up all the balls and just stand in their idle animation. | |||
