Here in Brazil we don΄t too much familirizated with this sport Baseball.

But, like some american sports, i had saw one thing or another in ESPN.
But I think this sport rules, a little some hard to understand..
bbguy
Yeah once you play it long enough and get use to the rules it's pretty easy. Just gotta be fast and good at catching, throwing, and hitting the small little baseball. But yeah I agree tho when I started it was pretty hard to remember everything but now it's like common sense lol. Good post tho. Very Happy

There are 9 innings and each team bats in their half of the inning.

Each team has 9 players and they go up to bat 1 at a time and try to hit to get on base in order to score runs.

If the player hits the ball in the air and it is caught on the fly then the player is out. If he hits the ball on the ground then he must run to first base before the fielding team catches the grounder and throws it to first base.

If a team can send a batter to first base, second base, third base and back to home plate in their half of the inning then they get 1 run. If two players can make the round trip, 2 runs. 3 players, 3 runs, etc.

Each team gets three outs in their half inning and they try to score as many runs as they can before those three outs occur.

That is an overview, if you understand that the rest is details and they fit within the overview. cabische?

A bawk is an illegal move by a pitcher said to deceive the baserunner. For instance, a pitcher must set himself or come to a complete stop before throwing the ball either to home or another base. He also cannot start his motion towards homeplate and then decide to throw to another base. If the pitcher bawks the runners automatically recieve the next base.

Is softball same as a baseball???
Inspectorspeedy
Baseball is the best sport ever!!!!! Mona, a balk is when the pitcher makes any illegal movement like swaying when they come to a set while he/she is on the mound. Baseball is a complicated and simple game. The best and worst thing about baseball though: NO TIME LIMIT!!!!

Baseball is like Softball.

But....


Baseball Rocks!!!!!!

I play on a softball team and really enjoy it. Softball is almost exactly like baseball, but slowed down. A larger ball is used and the ball is pitched underhanded. The rest of the basic rules are the same.

Is a bodycheck allowed in Baseball?
I mean if the catcher wait for the ball an you hit him so he is not able to catch the ball.

if he's in ur running path yes it is fair to run through him to get to home plate. you can't intentionally go out of ur running path to hit him however. also if he has the ball already and its not a forced out (where he could just touch the plate and your out) you can go through him to possibly get him to drop the ball and u would be safe

Ball touches your body, you get a run.
Even if the crowd catches you, you are out.
If you are in the middle of the run, you can run either way and there is no run out, the fielders will have to touch the ball to your body.

Wiered isnt it.

I love playing baseball. I'm just really bad at it.

Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams of nine players each. The goal of baseball is to score runs by hitting a thrown ball with a bat and touching a series of four markers called bases arranged at the corners of a ninety-foot square, or diamond. Players on one team (the batting team) take turns hitting while the other team (the fielding team) tries to stop them from scoring runs by getting hitters out in any of several ways. A player on the batting team can stop at any of the bases and hope to score on a teammate's hit. The teams switch between batting and fielding whenever the fielding team gets three outs. One turn at bat for each team constitutes an inning; nine innings make up a professional game. The team with the most runs at the end of the game wins.

A bawk is when the pitcher makes a motion like he is going to pitch the ball but instead trys to throw out a runner on the base, It is considered a bawk when his front leg he lifts crosses the rubber in a forward motion to be pitched. the call is up to the umpire and if determined a bawk then the runners advance one base,

You probably shouldn't make up rules if someone is asking a serious question. They may think you are being serious.
