Baseball

Baseball is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams, typically consisting of nine players each. The objective of the game is to score runs by hitting a pitched ball with a bat and then running around a series of bases arranged in a diamond shape. The game is played on a field with a diamond-shaped infield and an outfield. The team in the field tries to get the batters from the opposing team out by catching the ball, throwing it to bases, or striking them out. The game consists of nine innings, and the team with the most runs at the end wins. Baseball is often referred to as America’s pastime and is governed by a set of rules known as the Official Baseball Rules. It emphasizes strategy, skill, and teamwork and has a rich history and cultural significance, particularly in the United States.
