'''The Baseball Boys''' is the second level in [[World 2 (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island)|World 2]] in the games ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]'' and its remake, ''[[Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3]]''. This level introduces a variety of new enemies, such as [[Slugger]]s and [[Green Glove]]s, which are capable of stopping [[Yoshi]]'s [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]s; [[Blow Hard]]; [[Toady|Solo Toadies]]; [[Little Mouser]]s and [[Little Skull Mouser]]s. The level also features a new background consisting of blue mountains. This level's playable [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] is the Pink Yoshi.
==Overview==
Pink Yoshi starts in a field, with a [[Message Block]], an [[Egg Block]], an Arrow Cloud and some [[Green Glove]]s near them. If an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]] is thrown at the Arrow Cloud it will transport the egg to an area filled with [[coin]]s that will get collected. There is also a [[Slugger]] nearby, as well as a [[Winged Cloud]] which must be hit to lower a platform. After this segment, there will be one that has [[Shy Guy|Shy-Guy]]s, [[Blow Hard]]s and [[Milde]]s in it. At the end of the segment, the player will need to throw an egg at another Winged Cloud, which causes a [[giant sunflower|beanstalk]] to grow. The player will then have to climb the beanstalk as well as the area it leads to, before dropping down to an area that contains a [[Super Star]], that needs to be used to get past some [[Spike Trap|Spikes]], directly after the Spikes is the [[Checkpoint Ring|Middle Ring]]. After the Middle Ring are several wooden platforms and some [[Flatbed Ferry|Flatbed Ferries]] that lead to the next area.

In this area, is a [[ice watermelon|blue watermelon]] which can be used to freeze a nearby [[Piranha Plant|Wild Piranha]] and some Shy-Guys. After these enemies is a [[Spring Ball]] which will propel the player upwards and into an area with several platforms, some of them containing [[Red Coin]]s and in the bottom one is another Middle Ring. After going past the platforms the player will be in a cave with [[Little Mouser]]s and various branching paths. The path on the left leads to a [[ice watermelon|Super Blue Watermelon]] and the path on the right leads to the next area.

The next area is also a small cave area. At the beginning of it is a Winged Cloud that contains a [[morph bubble]] that will transform Pink Yoshi into the [[Mole Tank]], which must then be used to dig through some dirt and get some Red Coins. This cave also contains several branching paths. The paths eventually lead to an area underneath the cave that will lead to the [[Goal Ring]].

As the level starts, the player will see a new landscape with crayon blue-colored mountains in the background. He or she should immediately notice the Help Block, which is recommended to be hit. Yoshi should refill his egg supply and throw an egg at the nearby purple-colored floating Arrow Cloud to collect some coins. After that, Yoshi should either jump or [[Ground Pound]] on the Sluggers and Green Gloves to defeat them and get some more coins, and then throw an egg at the Winged ? Cloud. This will lower the platform blocking the path. Yoshi must jump over it and make contact with the [[Special Flower]] next to it.

==In-game help instructions (GBA)==
To proceed, Yoshi should continue his way right and jump over the two [[Shy Guy]]s on the way up to the slope, or rather defeat them somehow. At the top of the slope, Yoshi should [[Flutter Jump]] over the menacing Blow Hard, collecting the coins in the way and landing on top of the next slope. He should then repeat this action with the next Blow Hard between the two next slopes, landing on a [[Milde]]. The player may either jump over or eat the two other Mildes and continue right to come to three platforms. Here, Yoshi should temporarily stun the Blow Hard by throwing an egg at it, and quickly throw another egg at the Winged ? Cloud for an extra life. He should then quickly jump over the Blow Hard and land on the other platform. The player should continue right until he or she sees a [[Pipe]], from which Shy Guys come out of. Yoshi should refill his egg supply with these Shy Guys and then throw an egg at the Winged ? Cloud above for a beanstalk sunflower to grow. Climbing the beanstalk will lead to a small tunnel. The player must climb up the tunnel, avoiding the Blow Hards. Like before, the player may OPTIONALLY throw an egg at these Blow Hards to temporarily stun the Blow Hards, although it is completely unnecessary. Once on the top, outside of the tunnel, there will be two [[Fly Guy]]s floating around carrying a [[Red Coin]] each. Yoshi can throw eggs at them or eat them to obtain the coins. Yoshi should now jump on the grass patch and jump down into the gap to land near a Help Block, which teaches Yoshi about [[Superstar Mario]]. Yoshi should continue right along the platform and drop down through the outline blocks to land on some wooden-colored steps; run them down for two red coins and then drop down the new gap. After landing, Yoshi should shoot an egg at the purple-colored Arrow Cloud pointing left to destroy a small block of soil and allow the Super Star to fall.
*"''Hit [Cloud with an Arrow Pointing Up] with an egg and it'll fly off in the direction [Cloud with an Arrow Pointing Up] is currently pointing.''"

Collecting the Super Star will transform [[Baby Mario]] into Superstar Mario. Upon collecting it, the player should aquickly run through the Flipper Paddles on the left to find the second Star, and then continue left up the slope and along the red-dotted egg blocks to find another star, and a bit more to the left to find yet another star. Baby Mario should now run up the steep slope to collect another star, and run up the wall for a sixth one. Baby Mario will now be outside. The player must jump to the platform above and quickly collect the star here, and keep running until the now familiar gap. There will be another star floating over it. Baby Mario should collect it and drop down, then quickly run right, go through the small hall, walking over the spikes, and reach the new area.

In this new area, the player should wait for [[Pink Yoshi]] to go back to normal and touch the [[Middle Ring]] next to the spikes to obtains some stars. Next, he or she should hit the Egg Block just to the right to refill the egg supply. After that, Yoshi should walk down the slope and wait for the Slugger to be facing right, and quickly throw an egg at the ? Cloud below the platform for it to reveal a Special Flower. The player should repeat this to obtain the second Special Flower of the level. After that, Yoshi should hop on the long wooden platform above and continue right. Once on the edge of the platform, Yoshi should jump over the gap and to the platform to the right, avoiding the Green Glove below. Once on the edge of this new one, Yoshi should Futter Jump, making sure he collects the red coin in the way, and land of a Moving Platform. Quickly jump to a small, stick-like platform above and then to the grass patch. Upon moving right and dropping down a little bit, there will be a small hole. Yoshi should throw an egg into the tunnel so it bounces against the wall and is received by a Green Glove. Yoshi should now quickly move to the right, next to the Red Arrow Sign. The Green Glove will throw the egg at the wall, hitting a Winged ? Cloud in the process. This will make Yoshi obtain another red coin. Upon continuing right, Yoshi will change "screen" and get to a new area.

This new area looks nothing different than last one. Yoshi should go right until he finds a light-blue colored lemon hanging from a tree. This fruit can be optionally eaten to defeat the [[Piranha Plant]] and [[Shy Guy]] to the right. After that, the player should use the Large Spring Ball to bounce up to a platform above. Yoshi should go left, jump on the grass patch and go through the wall to find a Middle Ring, which will award 10 stars. If the player has not been hit in the whole level, then he or she should already have all 30 stars. Yoshi should now get out of the small tunnel back to the grass patch, walk to the edge and from there, jump into the small block of soil. This one looks like a regular floating mass of soil, but it can be entered through the middle. Now Yoshi should jump from the right-most edge of it to the mass of soil to the right, and from there, to the one to the left, which is the top of the one accessed before. From here, Yoshi should jump into the block to the right, throw an egg at the cloud inside it and collect five yellow [[Coin]]s. After that, he should go back to the last platform and jump to the left, and then into the above block for a single red coin. Then, he should exit the hidden tunnel and jump on the grass patch on which there is another Large Spring Ball. To its left is also an Egg Box to refill the egg supply. The player should bounce up using the Spring Ball to land on top of a soil block, then drop down to the one below and jump into the one to the next for an ? Cloud containing the third Special Flower. After that, Yoshi should hop back to the last block and jump on top of the one that had the ? Cloud (the one with a red arrow sign on it), and Flutter Jump all the way to a secret tunnel to the right.

The Baseball Boys is the second level in World 2 in the games Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and its remake, Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3. This level introduces a variety of new enemies, such as Sluggers and Green Gloves, which are capable of stopping Yoshi's eggs; Blow Hard; Solo Toadies; Little Mousers and Little Skull Mousers. The level also features a new background consisting of blue mountains. This level's playable Yoshi is the Pink Yoshi.

Overview[edit]

Pink Yoshi starts in a field, with a Message Block, an Egg Block, an Arrow Cloud and some Green Gloves near them. If an egg is thrown at the Arrow Cloud it will transport the egg to an area filled with coins that will get collected. There is also a Slugger nearby, as well as a Winged Cloud which must be hit to lower a platform. After this segment, there will be one that has Shy-Guys, Blow Hards and Mildes in it. At the end of the segment, the player will need to throw an egg at another Winged Cloud, which causes a beanstalk to grow. The player will then have to climb the beanstalk as well as the area it leads to, before dropping down to an area that contains a Super Star, that needs to be used to get past some Spikes, directly after the Spikes is the Middle Ring. After the Middle Ring are several wooden platforms and some Flatbed Ferries that lead to the next area.

Using the Mole Tank

In this area, is a blue watermelon which can be used to freeze a nearby Wild Piranha and some Shy-Guys. After these enemies is a Spring Ball which will propel the player upwards and into an area with several platforms, some of them containing Red Coins and in the bottom one is another Middle Ring. After going past the platforms the player will be in a cave with Little Mousers and various branching paths. The path on the left leads to a Super Blue Watermelon and the path on the right leads to the next area.

The next area is also a small cave area. At the beginning of it is a Winged Cloud that contains a morph bubble that will transform Pink Yoshi into the Mole Tank, which must then be used to dig through some dirt and get some Red Coins. This cave also contains several branching paths. The paths eventually lead to an area underneath the cave that will lead to the Goal Ring.
