Ball 101 Baseball
Outsmart the Game

Reps at home.
Confidence on the field.

Every parent knows the moment: your player is out there, the ball is coming, and you can see them wondering where to go. Ball 101 turns short animated plays into real understanding, a few minutes a day, and shows you exactly what is clicking.

It started with a drawing that didn't work.

One night after a game, a dad sat at the kitchen table with his boys, trying to explain the play that beat them. Runners on first and third. Ball hit to short. What you do depends on the situation: whether it is on the ground or in the air, and whether third is breaking for home. Everything after that changes with it. Paper. A hand-drawn diamond. Arrows, then more arrows, then arrows crossed out. The boys wanted to learn, and they were completely lost. The explanation was making it worse.

Ball 101 is that drawing. Animated, interactive, and finally understandable.

See the play. Know the play. Make the play.

Hitting, catching and throwing get all the practice time. Knowing what to do, where to throw and when to run is the part that gets skipped. Ball 101 teaches exactly that, and it is the part that builds the confidence that separates decent players and real ballers.

1

See the play

Watch a real game situation animated on the field. Runners on, ball in play, the moment unfolding. The drawing every parent has tried to draw, finally moving.

2

Know the play

Your player makes the call: where to go and why. Right answers build mastery. Misses become the next thing to work on, not a lecture.

3

Make the play

Mental reps at home until the decision is automatic. On Saturday, they are not processing. They are playing.

Learn it in just a few minutes throughout the week, use it in the yard on Saturday.

Built for parents too

Whether you played for years or never played at all, sometimes we all need support. Parent Mode means you have an answer, and when it comes from the app instead of from you, somehow it sticks. The report card shows what your player has mastered and what to watch for at the next game. You get to stop explaining and start watching the same play together, in the same words they understand. Fewer blank stares. Less frustration on both sides.

  • A report card of real, demonstrated understanding, concept by concept
  • Plain-language lessons so you can talk the game with confidence
  • Assign a practice: point the reps at exactly what your player needs
  • Watch them play: see the same animated plays your player sees

Matched to where your player actually is

You pick the level. The situations, the answers and the language all move with it, so a first-year player is never asked a question built for a twelve-year-old.

Tee Ball

The basics that decide most plays at this level: where to stand, when to run, what a force at first means, and why you throw the ball instead of carrying it.

Coach Pitch

Real fielding decisions start here. Force plays and tags, cutoffs and relays, tagging up, covering your base, and the first backing-up habits that separate players who get it.

Kid Pitch

The full game. Where to throw with runners on in specific situations, base running decision making, and the off-ball reads that never show up in a box score.

Levels are chosen by you and your player's skillset, and you can change one at any time.

Earned, never given

Stars, trophies and avatar gear come from demonstrated understanding, never from watching ads or buying shortcuts. Just like the real world, mastery has to be earned, concept by concept, from day one. Every skill earns its way from Rookie to G.O.A.T.

Screen time that earns its minutes

We are not trying to create iPad monsters. Ten minutes, then go outside.

No ads. No chat. No camera. No junk.

Nothing in the app talks to your player except the game. No feeds, no strangers, no camera access, ever.

Parents approve and control everything

The free preview needs no account. Player profiles exist only after a parent creates them, and parents can review or delete everything, any time.

Questions parents actually ask

Do I need to know baseball to use this with my player?

No. Parent Mode explains every concept in plain language, so you and your player learn the same play in the same words. If you do know the game, Ball 101 says what you would say, in a way they will actually hear.

What ages is Ball 101 for?

Families with young players, from the first tee ball season on up. A parent picks each player's level, from tee ball to kid pitch and beyond, and the plays match it.

Is this just more screen time?

It is a few minutes at a time, by design, and then go outside. Learn it in short stretches through the week, use it in the yard on Saturday.

How does a screen rep show up on a real field?

Hitting, catching and throwing get all the practice time. The decision is the part that gets skipped: where to go, where to throw, and when to run. When a player has made that call dozens of times at home, they are not thinking through it at game speed. They already know.

What about my player's privacy?

The free preview collects nothing and needs no account. Player profiles exist only after a parent creates them, and a profile is just a first name or nickname, a level, and progress. No ads, no chat, no camera, and parents can delete everything at any time. Full details in our Privacy Policy and notice to parents.

Can my player earn things without me buying anything extra?

Everything in the app is earned by playing. Stars and avatar gear come from demonstrated understanding, never from purchases or ads. One subscription covers it all.

How do I manage or cancel my subscription?

Subscriptions are billed by Apple, so they are managed in your Apple account: Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions. Refund requests also go through Apple's report a problem page. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.

How do I review or delete our data?

In the app, under account settings, Data and Privacy. You can review everything we hold and delete the account outright. You can also email privacy@saga.group from your account address and a person will handle it.

Something in a play looks wrong. What do I do?

Tell us. Wrong baseball is a wrong product, so accuracy reports go to the top of the list ahead of almost anything else. Email support@saga.group with what you saw and we will chase it down.

Still stuck? Email support@saga.group and a person reads it. We aim to reply within two business days.
