He had to get the ball within a 3 or 4 foot circle around home plate. Three pitches or you're out. You basically porked it up so your guy could whack it.
Another fast game.......

At the Naval Postgrad School in Monterey we played a game called "Socko." Pitcher was on your own team. Three pitches to hit a fair ball. If it touched the pitcher, it was interference. Thanksgiving tournament was 1-pitch. Games ended in 45 minutes.
