| OK, Mr. Big Batting Hero, time to show off your skills in an exhibition match. Don't let anything get past you! |
 Rhythm Heaven Megamix
|
Exhibition Match (バッティングショー?, Batting Show) is the 3rd game Rhythm Game of the fifth stage (23rd overall) in Rhythm Heaven Fever and the 3rd of Donut Land (16th overall) in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
Gameplay
The player controls Slugger, the batter in yellow on the right side of the screen. On the other side is Pitcher, a young girl wearing pink. She throws a baseball behind a curtain, and it flies out after four beats. The player needs to swing on the fifth beat to hit the ball.
The entire game revolves around trying to mislead the player. Although they only need to swing on the fifth beat, the game zooms in or out and cuts off the music, and at one point zooming all the way out.
In the end, the curtain goes up to reveal a Monkey, who is the one catching the ball and throwing it with a delay.

Only the best batters get to appear in these exhibition matches, but I hear that at least one got there by just being a big, scary guy that no one wanted to refuse. |

Trivia
- The team logo on the ground reads "Batting Show" in Minna no Rhythm Tengoku and was left unchanged in Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise. In Rhythm Heaven Fever and Rhythm Heaven Megamix, it says "Batting Exhibition" instead.
- The VS screen featuring Pitcher and Slugger was redrawn completely for Rhythm Heaven Megamix

- When Pitcher throws her hat on the ground, it is layered behind her in Rhythm Heaven Fever, causing her to seemingly walk through it. In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, it is layered in front of her instead.
- When the screen zooms out completely, a city can be seen in the background. This city is a stock photo of New York City from before September 2001, edited to be black and white. In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the city is edited further.
