3. Baseball
Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between
two teams of nine players each. The goal is to
score runs by hitting a thrown ball with a bat and
touching a series of four bases arranged at the
corners of a ninety-foot square, or diamond.
Players on one team take turns hitting against
the pitcher of the other team , which 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 later advance
via a teammate's hit or other means. The teams
switch between batting and fielding whenever the
fielding team records 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.

14. How to Create a Vodcast:
• Vodcasting/Podcasting can really be broken
down into 4 simple steps:
– Plan – How do you know which path to follow if you
have no plan? This part is the answer to identifying
the purpose and goal of your podcast.
– Produce – Producing a vodcast/podcast file is not as
hard as you might think. In fact you can get started
using simple equipment and free software.
– Publish – The tricky part... Vodcasting/Podcasting
involves a custom publishing procedure to make it
podcast compatible.
– Promote – How are you going to get your message
to your audience???
15. How to Create a Vodcast:
• Step 1: The Plan
• You need to have a plan!
– Prepare what you want to talk about... Just because it’s free and
easy doesn’t mean that it’s going to be good!
– Prepare a script to minimize editing
– The Vod/Podcaster – Is it going to be a solo vod/podcast, or will
you have other guests in to host with you at the same time?
– The Length – How long will your vod/podcast episode be? 2
minutes?
– Vod/Podcast Segments – How will you break your vod/podcast
down to keep listeners interest high?
– Intro and outro music – Will you be talking right after the
vod/podcast has started, or will there be an intro and outro music
to lead and close the vod/podcast?
16. How to Create a Vodcast:
• Step 2: The Production
• You need hardware and software
– This can be as simple as an analog or digital recording device. If
you plan on recording directly to your computer, a microphone
plugged into the port/jack on the sound card is more than
enough to get you ready!
– Software:
• Free websites to download software (if you don’t already have a
recorder on your computer):

– www.How-to-podcast-tutorial.com
– www.podbean.com
17. How to Create a Vodcast:
• Step 3: The Publication
– Once you have produced your vod/podcast, it
must be MP3 and Windows Media Player
compatible so that it could be published.
• Step 4: The Promotion
– How are you going to get people to listen to
your vod/podcast? What is your market, and
how will you reach them?
