Baseball Chess 9x9, Fly Balls. In B.C. any Castling creates a Fly Ball, or
Fly Ball potential.  Whether free or fixed castling, the King and Rook end
up adjacent by the Rook's overleaping King.  The immediate following turn,
any Outfielder, Rook or Cardinal(BN), exercises the option to switch to any
vacant square in the opponent back rank, where Castling has just taken
place.  In lieu of normal move, taking a Flyball is drop, or teleport, to a last
rank empty square by LeftFielder-Rook, RightFielder-Rook, or
CenterFielder-Cardinal.  No capturing, but Check is permitted.  The option
is void any turn later than directly upon opponent's Castle (0-0, 0-0-0,
however else designated) of King -- similar to En Passant and Baseball Chess
Groundball being one-time chance.  (hhh) Fly Ball by Outfielder approved
the turn immediately following Castling, as above.  (iii) 'hhh' except the
option is good for two turns after King's castle  (jjj) 'iii' three
turns, then void.
