Every card is an at-bat. Answer correctly to move around the bases. Wrong answers — and every Calamity card — are outs.
Single
Double
Triple
Home Run
Calamity
Single: batter reaches 1st; existing runners advance one base.
Double: batter reaches 2nd; existing runners advance two bases. The required Moneyball test rule treats a lone runner on 1st as scoring on a Double.
Triple: batter reaches 3rd; existing runners advance three bases.
Home Run: batter and all existing runners score; bases clear.
Required example: bases loaded + Triple = three runs score and the batter is alone on 3rd.
Home Run: batter and every occupied base score.
Wrong answer / Calamity: one out; the batter does not advance.
Three outs: in competitive mode the side is retired, bases clear, and the other player bats. In scrimmage, the bases clear and outs reset, but practice keeps going.
Scoring: a runner crossing home scores one run.
Deck: all 71 cards are shuffled. When exhausted, the discard pile is reshuffled automatically.
Competitive mode: reach the run target first, or lead after the selected inning limit. A tie after the inning limit continues into extra innings.
Scrimmage mode: no opponent and no automatic ending. Track your accuracy by difficulty and quit or reset whenever you like.
