Baseball

Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams, typically consisting of nine players each. The objective of the game is for one team to hit a ball thrown by the opposing team’s pitcher and to run around a series of four bases arranged in a diamond shape to score runs. The team that scores the most runs wins the game.

Baseball involves a combination of strategy, skill, and teamwork, with key elements including batting, pitching, fielding, and base running. The game is divided into innings, with each team taking turns to bat and field. The team in the field tries to stop the batting team from scoring by getting batters out through various means such as striking them out, catching batted balls, or tagged outs.

Baseball is often referred to as America’s pastime and has a rich history and cultural significance, particularly in the United States, although it is also popular in many other countries. The sport is governed by various rules and regulations, and it has different levels, from amateur play to professional leagues like Major League Baseball (MLB).
