'''''Mario Superstar Baseball''''' is a [[Genre#Sports games|sports]] title for the [[Nintendo GameCube]] and is the first installment of the ''[[Mario Baseball (series)|Mario Baseball]]'' series, being the first dedicated baseball game with characters of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. Like most sports games of the ''Super Mario'' franchise, ''Mario Superstar Baseball'' is based on the traditional rules of the sport, in this case, but is differentiated with various ''Super Mario''-themed gimmicks and other mechanics. These include characters using [[Star Skill]] abilities to cause the ball to behave differently; team captains have unique Star Skill abilities that cause a wide variety of special effects, such as attacking outfielders if batting or causing the pitched ball to behave erratically. Characters also have field abilities to differentiate themselves from other teammates. [[Chemistry]] is a feature unique to the ''Mario Baseball'' games whereby characters perform differently depending on whether they like, dislike, or are neutral to another character they are cooperating with. Additionally, most fields in the game include hazards that can affect outfielders, such as the [[Piranha Plant]]s serving as obstacles in [[Yoshi Park]]. {{more|Mario Superstar Baseball}}
