How to Play Baseball Multiplication Battle
This is a team-based math game simulating baseball, where answering multiplication questions advances runners and scores runs.
- Setup: Choose number of innings, enter player names for two teams.
- Game Play: Teams alternate batting/pitching per half-inning.
- Batter Chooses Level: Batter selects hit type (single, double, triple, home run), affecting difficulty.
- Pitching: Pitcher clicks "Pitch" and solves the question, timed.
- Batting: Batter clicks "Hit" and solves the same question, timed.

- Situation: Track outs, runners, inning.
- Winning: Team with more runs at end wins.
