Pick 1 of 5

Home Run DerbyOne-tap timing

How to play

  1. The pitcher throws and a white ring closes in on the hitting spot in front of the plate.
  2. Swing (one tap) as the ring meets the ball. Perfect timing is a moonshot with fireworks, good timing a home run, a little off a base hit.
  3. A swing that is too early or too late, or no swing at all, is an out. Home runs in a row build a streak up to x3. Ten outs end the round.

Controls

One button: tap or click anywhere on the field, or press Space, to swing.

Coach's tip

Don't chase the ball with your eyes: watch the ring and swing the moment it closes. Changeups come in slower.
