Baseball Chess 9x9, Stolen Bases.   Squares b2,       LF__CF__RF    123 
b8, h2, and h8 are the central squares of corner      SS__PI__2B    456
nonants. Recall nonants are 3x3 on over-all 9x9,      3B__CA__1B    789
one for each player-piece. Files are 1-9 and Ranks a-i.      RNBKQCBNR
Technically belonging to Knights and Rooks for other Mutators that may be
applicable, irrespective of those nonant identifications, the specific
four(4) squares within nonants 7,1,9 & 3 are Stolen-Base, or teleporter,
squares for any piece (not Pawn) that comes to be positioned there. In
Baseball Chess, it is Stealing a Base, not teleporting(''transporting'' after Jacks & Witches), and the four particular squares themselves are the ''bases.'' Otherwise of course, as with squares in any ''nonant'' across the board, regardless of nonant-piece-specific empowerment from certain rules-mutators, they are all normal squares to move and capture on the 9x9 playing field.  The piece must be on the square already to steal to any other of its counterparts (b2,b8,h2,h8) if the destination is vacant. Thus Stolen Base is instanteous transfer with no pathway needed.  Notice that initially all four ''Bases'' are occupied in the array, and so no stealing right away.  Stealing base(s) is in lieu of another normal move.  (qq) S.B. applies as all of above described.  (rr) 'qq' except no King's stealing base to remove check  (ss) 'qq', no base-stealing by King at all.  (tt) 'qq', Pawns may steal base.  (uu) 'qq' and if position is presenting itself, two Bases may be stolen at once by two different pieces, counting as just one move.
