Important: A Turn does not correspond to a single pitch, but rather, the The final end result of a Batter’s efforts. Each turn is divided into 3 phases: 1. Draw Phase 3. Fielding Phase
DRAW PHASEBoth players draw or are dealt 2 cards from the deck. If the deck runs out, shuffle the discard & draw from it. BATTING PHASEThe Offensive Player rolls 2D6 (2 six-siders added together) To get a Result on the Batting Table. This Roll is called the Batting Roll. The Offensive player may play up to one Hit card and one Batter card to Modify the roll. The Defensive player may play one Pitch card to modify the Roll. Players may also play ‘Effect’ cards to modify the roll. Hit, Batter, Effect, and Pitch cards are collectively referred to as Modifier cards. Modifier cards must be played before the Roll is made. Before any Modifier cards are played, the Offensive Player may play one ‘Automatic Result’ card. If the Offensive player doesn’t play an Automatic Card, the Defensive player may play one Automatic card. Automatic cards provide a particular outcome instead of making the Batting Roll. Played cards are always immediately discarded.
