CATCH IT
   You're Also Uno-kun   

  Catch the ball before it hits the ground
  Fail to catch a ball
  The costumes make it very hard to move

A group of contestants are all dressed in giant foam baseball outfits, waiting to catch a baseball.
A guard, usually one half of Popcorn, hits a baseball high into the air over the pitch. Once the ball has been hit, the contestants have to run over to where they think it will land and try and be the one to catch it. They all have a baseball glove to help.
12 balls are launched for each group of contestants, so they have 12 chances to win the game.

This game was inspired by Japanese baseball infielder Masaru Uno, who is famous for having a baseball land on his head instead of in his hands!
