Players hit a ball on an elastic tether that is thrown, or pitched, to the batter. Fielders try to prevent the ball from entering small holes in the field, which score blerns.

If enough balls go into small holes in the center of the field, third ball lock unlocks and:
A pinball-style Multi-ball begins to shoot balls via hidden pitching machines that come out of the field and causes chaos while the batter tries to hit as many balls as possible.
A player on a motorcycle comes in to the field and tries to drift over all four bases while they explode. Maybe this is a "jazzed up" version of a home-run.
A giant tarantula enters from the bullpen with a player on its back.

Steroid injections are mandatory.

There is a target that can be hit to win the game.

Traditions of the game include aluminum bats and the 7th inning grope, which seems to be the jazzed up version of the 7th inning stretch.

Robots are not allowed on the field anymore.
