COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

Early Life

Baserunner grew up in the Fens as part of a large family of Fenmaids. Her interest in the statistical side of Blaseball began at an early age. According to one of her siblings, she "was a pretty weird kid. She was always obsessively watching Blaseball games and scribbling things in little notebooks. Also, we all supported her changing her name, but isn't Scores Baserunner a little on the nose?"

In an interview, Baserunner's mothers both expressed support of her and her choices, although they did suggest that she come back home to the Fens when she's done trying "that Blaseball thing".

Career on the Flowers

Baserunner initially applied for a position on the Flowers staff, eager to be a part of their favorite team, but captain Margarito Nava recognized that their rules knowledge and Blaseball skills would be invaluable to the Flowers and asked her to join the lineup. Baserunner was overjoyed and, some report, extremely flustered to become teammates with her heroes.

Baserunner is a talented batter, which she attributes to the many, many hours of training she did before joining the team. She uses a wheelchair to move around on land and can be seen speeding from base to base with it. She also contributes to team strategies, frequently offering her opinion on how the team can succeed (or, if not succeed, reach an interesting outcome, statistically) based on her analysis of the game.

Since joining the team, Baserunner has gained a reputation for taunting opponents, offering statistical analyses of why the opposing team will fail and the Flowers, especially Baserunner herself, will succeed. This hasn’t seemed to damage the Flowers' relationship with other teams. Margarito Nava has commented, "Sure, she can be aggressive, but I don't think anyone sees any harm in it—everyone knows it's all in good fun. Although I did see Scores promise to punch a player from the Magic if they kept threatening King Weatherman."

Magical Abilities

Baserunner's skill with mathematics and statistics allows her to affect the world around her, leading some to refer to her as a "stlats witch". Baserunner does not hesitate to use these abilities to gain an advantage in Blaseball, a tactic that has created a long-running argument between Baserunner and King Weatherman, who holds that the use of magic is unfair.

Reportedly, her magic has enabled her to uncover Forbidden Knowledge about Blaseball. However, this could not be confirmed, because when she tries to explain the information, nobody else can remember what she said.

Rulebook

Although her collection of notes, spreadsheets, and binders full of Tlopps cards is extensive, Baserunner takes particular care of one notebook: a homemade rulebook where she has assembled all of the known and speculative rules of The Book of Blaseball. As Baserunner uncovered more rules via detailed observation of Blaseball games, advanced statistical calculations, and strange math-based rituals, her rulebook developed an eldritch power that echoes the Forbidden Book itself. The rulebook now floats by her side, and some have even reported hearing it talk to her.
