You are the home plate umpire.

Watch the pitch. When it hits the mitt, call it: STRIKE or BALL.

Any part of the ball touching the zone is a STRIKE.

Call it before the timer runs out. 3 wrong calls and you're out.

Streaks multiply your score. Edge pitches and quick calls earn bonus.

Pitchers throw lefty or righty, overhand or submarine. Watch the arm.

A full swing and miss is a strike no matter where the ball went. A held check swing is not.

The catcher may frame a ball by pulling the mitt into the zone. Judge where it crossed, not where the mitt ends up.

Miss a call and the ABS readout shows how far the ball was from the zone. Press R for a slow-motion replay.

The dotted zone guide shows during level 1 only. From level 2 you call it blind.

The crowd and the bench are atmosphere only. Boos never change a call.
