How to Play (2)

Master Batting and Pitching in Nintendo Switch Sports. Learn how to swing, throw curveballs, screwballs, and splitters.

Batting:

To bat, stand to your side with the Wiimote behind your head. Swing the Wiimote forward as the ball approaches. Different pitches require slightly different swing timings. Hitting the ball early will result in hitting it to the left, while hitting it late will result in hitting it to the right.

Pitching:

To pitch, raise the Wiimote up and throw it down to pitch the ball. Holding the A button will throw a Screwball (which spins left). Holding the B button will throw a Curveball (which spins right). Holding both A and B buttons will throw a Splitter (which drops down). Tapping left or right on the D-Pad will pitch the ball toward that direction, while tapping Up or Down will pitch back to the center. The speed of your pitch will impact how fast you throw the ball.
