5. Baseball
• Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams of nine players each. The aim 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 diamond. Players on the batting team take turns hitting against the pitcher of the fielding
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 and nine innings make up a professional game. The team with the
most runs at the end of the game wins.

7. THE POSITIONS

8. THE PITCHER
the pitcher is the player who throws the baseball from the pitcher's mound
toward the catcher to begin each play, with the goal of retiring a batter, who
attempts to either make contact with the pitched ball or draw a walk.

9. CATCHER
• Catcher is a position for a baseball or softball player. When a batter takes his turn
to hit, the catcher crouches behind home plate, in front of the umpire, and receives
the ball from the pitcher

10. FIRST BASEMAN
• A first baseman is the player on the team playing defense who fields the area
nearest first base, and is responsible for the majority of plays made at that base.

11. SECOND BASE
A second baseman is the baseball player guarding second base.[1] Also called second
bagger,[1] the second baseman often possesses quick hands and feet, needs the ability to get
rid of the ball quickly, and must be able to make the pivot on a double play.

12. Third
BASE
• A third baseman, abbreviated 3B, is the player in baseball whose responsibility is to
defend the area nearest tothird base — the third of four bases a baserunner must
touch in succession to score a run. In the scoring system used to record defensive
plays, the third baseman is assigned the number '5.'

13. SHORTSTOP
• Shortstop, abbreviated SS, is the baseball fielding position between second and third
base. Shortstop is often regarded as the most dynamic defensive position in
baseball, because there are more right-handed hitters in baseball than left-
handed hitters, and most hitters have a tendency to pull the ball slightly, so more balls
go to the shortstop than any other position. In the numbering system used to record
defensive plays, the shortstop is assigned the number 6.

14. LEFT FIELDER
• In baseball, a left fielder (LF) is an outfielder who plays defense in left field. Left field is the area of the outfield
to the left of a person standing at home plate and facing towards the pitcher's mound. In the numbering system
used to record defensive plays, the left fielder is assigned the number 7.

15. CENTER
FIELDER
• A center fielder, abbreviated CF, is the outfielder in baseball who plays defense in center
field – the baseball fielding position between left field and right field. In the numbering
system used to record defensive plays, the center fielder is assigned the number 8.

16. Right fielder
• A right fielder, abbreviated RF, is the outfielder in baseball or softball who plays defense in right
field. Right field is the area of the outfield to the right of a person standing at home plate and
facing towards the pitcher's mound. In the numbering system used to record defensive plays, the
right fielder is assigned the number 9.

17. Designated hitter
• In baseball, the designated hitter rule is the common name for Major League Baseball Rule
6.10,[1] an official position adopted by the American League in 1973 that allows teams to
designate a player, known as the designated hitter (abbreviated DH), to bat in place of
the pitcher each time he would otherwise come to home plate, rather than replace him by pinch-
hitting. Since then, most collegiate, amateur, and professional leagues have adopted the rule or
some variant; MLB's National League, NPB's Central League, and the independent Golden Baseball
League are the most prominent professional leagues that do not have the DH rule.

18. If the ball goes flying over the bottom boundary of
the playing area is a home run or
"homer," English "homerun" - that is, the batter goes
around the block to score a home and career. If you
also had some of his companions on the bases, they
also run to the plate and score runs, one for
each player to have on base and one that scores
the batter.
