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.
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 Stars from a distance, and the World 6 Mystery House requires the use of baseballs to obtain all Green Stars.
