The '''''Mario Baseball''''' series is a spinoff series of the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise that revolves around the concept of {{wp|baseball}}. Only two games in the series have been released to date: ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' and ''[[Mario Super Sluggers]]''. Unlike in the previous spinoffs, the player can recruit people via completing scout missions to get enough scout flags to recruit the player on one of the four opposite teams. Another unique feature is [[chemistry]], which affects how well the player's teammates cooperate. Even though there are only two baseball games, this series features more playable characters than other spinoff titles in the ''Mario'' franchise. | The '''''Mario Baseball'''''{{ref needed}} series is a spinoff series of the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise that revolves around the concept of {{wp|baseball}}.
