Baseball

Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams, typically consisting of nine players each. It is played on a diamond-shaped field, with four bases positioned at the corners. The objective of the game is to score runs by hitting a pitched ball with a bat and then running around the bases to return to home plate. The game is played in innings, during which teams alternate between batting and fielding. The team with the most runs at the end of the game wins. Baseball is known for its strategic elements, including pitching, batting, and defensive plays, and is often referred to as “America’s pastime.” It has a rich history and is governed by various rules and regulations, with professional leagues like Major League Baseball (MLB) being prominent examples.
