How it works

Learn the game before the ball is hit

Every question is a real game situation. Every answer shows you where all nine fielders go and why.

01

Pick your position

Pitcher to right field. Start with Easy mechanics, then move up to Medium and Hard situations with runners, outs, score and inning.

02

Read the situation

Runners on, how many outs, where the ball is hit. You see the starting picture and choose what your player does.

03

Watch the play

The play runs on the field: every fielder, every runner, every throw. Tap any player to see his job.
