Amy Bostwick Hidden Backyard Kid
A classic Backyard Baseball opponent who becomes playable in Backyard Baseball 2026. See Amy’s stats, best positions, boosts, unlock guide and franchise history.
Amy Bostwick
Who Is Amy Bostwick?
Amy is a longtime Backyard Baseball character who spent the classic games as a generic computer-controlled opponent rather than one of the 30 selectable Backyard Kids. Her 2026 return changes that: Amy is now one of the hidden characters who can permanently join the playable roster.
A Familiar Opponent
Amy appeared in the original Backyard Baseball as one of the generic kids who could show up on computer-controlled teams, giving longtime players a face they may recognize even though she was not normally draftable.
Finally Playable
Backyard Baseball 2026 promotes Amy into the playable cast as one of six hidden returning Backyard Kids. Unlocking her turns a former opponent into a permanent roster option.
Bat-First Depth Option
Batting is clearly Amy’s best visible category. Her speed, pitching and fielding are more limited, so she works best when you give her a simple defensive assignment and let her bat near the bottom of the order.

Best Position for Amy Bostwick in Backyard Baseball 2026
Amy is easiest to use when you keep her defensive responsibilities simple. First base and the corner outfield let her 75 Arm and 75 Throwing Aim matter without asking her 14 Speed to cover too much ground.
Let the Bat Carry the Value
Amy’s 6/10 batting is the reason to put her in a lineup. Keep her near the bottom, look for solid contact and avoid building your baserunning or defense around her.
- First base is the safest defensive home when you want to minimize range demands.
- Right or left field can work if your infield already has stronger defenders.
- Do not treat her as a stealing threat. Her hidden Speed rating is only 14.
- Pitch with Amy only when your better options are unavailable.
