Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams, typically consisting of nine players each. The objective of the game is to score runs by hitting a baseball with a bat and running around a series of bases arranged in a diamond shape. The game is played on a field consisting of an infield, outfield, pitcher’s mound, and bases.
In baseball, one team plays defense by fielding, attempting to get batters from the opposing team out through various means, such as catching fly balls, striking out batters, or tagging runners. The other team plays offense, sending batters to the plate in an attempt to hit the ball and reach the bases.
A game is divided into innings, with each team having a turn to bat and a turn to field. The team with the most runs at the end of the game wins. Baseball is known for its intricate rules, statistics, and rich history, often considered America’s pastime. The sport has a significant cultural impact, with a wide following and professional leagues worldwide.
