In this study, we propose an interactive robot to support cognitive spectating of baseball games for beginners. Cognitive spectating is "making use of knowledge about the play and the game, and making meaning in one's own mind as the spectator understands and evaluates through spectating". In this paper, we define five utterance categories and rules of utterance for the player appearance scene and the player play scene in order to examine the utterances that a robot makes while watching a baseball game. In order to verify the effectiveness of the cognitive spectating support, we conducted an experiment in which a baseball video was viewed together with a robot to which the defined utterance categories and utterance rules were applied. The results of the experiment confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed method in supporting the players' play intelligence cognitive capability, which constitutes the cognitive spectator capability.
