His other costume replaces his head with another big red head. His clothes turn yellow and blue, along with his belt and shoes. The red head itself has big eyes and sweats nervously whenever he hits the baseballs.

==Story==
==Backstory==
In [[Rhythm Tengoku]], when you perfect [[Spaceball]], you get an email called "Inside Spaceball." This email is a transcript of an interview between the Air Batter (referred to as Mr. Spaceballer) and TV show host Ryan Williams. To start the show (which is called ''Radio Heaven News in Deep Space). ''Ryan Williams asks the Batter several questions. It is revealed that he has a girlfriend. The Air Batter describes his affection towards rice balls, and when asked about why he changes costumes, he quickly leaves the interview.
The Air Batter is a youth devoted to baseball and rhythm.<ref name="chara" /> During [[Spaceball]], he brought a [[Rhythm Item#Rice Ballrice ball|Rice Ball]] for lunch, but lost it at some point.<ref>"なくなったと思ってたら、ボールの中に、まぎれていたのネ。" ("I thought [the rice ball] was gone, but it was hidden with the baseballs.") ~ Rhythm Item description for "[[Spaceball]]", ''Rhythm Tengoku: The Best Plus''</ref> It appeared mixed in with the balls, and he hit it without a second thought, sending into the void of space. He regretted this while complaining about being hungry. In the Superb epilogues of [[Spaceball]] and [[Spaceball 2]], he receives a trophy for winning first "space". In the other epilogues, he's shown to be very polite, offering an alien his rice ball in exchange for a ball which hit the alien's UFO, and he is seen pulling a tire to train himself. During an [[Rhythm Shiryo Shitsu#エアーバッター速報 (Air Batter Report)|interview]], he talks fondly of rice balls, and mentions his girlfriend (who incidentally is good at cooking rice balls). When asked why he wears masks during the game, he dodges the question and leaves the interview. It's likely he has no special reason for wearing them.<ref>https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/brij/chara/secret.html</ref>
