====Scoring a Run====
You score runs in Championship Baseball just as in real-life baseball play. Each time your runner safely reaches home plate, you receive one run.
===Fielding By Voice Recognition===
Player 2 must react quickly if player 1 gets a hit. Watch the ball's shadow and decide whether the hit is a pop fly or a line drive. Move the fielder who is nearest to the ball by speaking the name of the position or the fielder's name into the headset microphone clearly and consistently.
----
When you ''call'' a fielder, its figure on the screen changes to the color black to let you know that the fielder will catch the ball or that the ball has already been caught. If you wish to' 'send'' the ball to another fielder at this time, quickly call out the other fielder's position or name.
When fielding by Voice Recognition, give only one position or name at a time. Wait for the'' called" fielder to change black before calling out another position or name. The fielder who is the color black is always the player who has the ball.
What happens if you make a'' bad'' call? If a ball is hit into shallow left centerfield and you call'' Catcher,'' the catcher will not field the ball. Instead, one of the three closest players to where the ball is hit will field the ball. (In this example, either the left fielder, the center fielder or the shortstop.) When you use Voice Recognition, the computer will correct your fielding error!
'''Note:''' Balls are caught automatically if the fielder is in range and if you send the fielder to the position nearest the ball.
