Baseball Base

Mnemonic

There's an explosion in the dirt under a rice paddy, exposing the hidden base under there. A base from baseball! I guess this rice paddy was built on top of an old baseball field...

Hints

Picture a serene rice paddy. Now watch the whole thing explode, rice and dirt going everywhere, and a secret, underground baseball base is left there, smoldering.

Readings

るい

Kun’yomi

None

Nanori

None

Mnemonic

Unfortunately, thanks to the explosion, the base is in ruins (るい). It's dark and smokey and kinda half burned. You probably can't get this in a regulation game.

Hints

Hold this ruined base in your hands. Darn, you love baseball. At least it's a collectible.
