steal of home
Where you stand at to hit, is called home plate. The first base you run to is called 1st base. The next base is 2nd base. And the one after that is 3rd.
You steal a base by running for it before the pitcher even pitches, instead of waiting for the batter to hit the ball. If the pitcher sees you, instead of pitching to the batter the pitcher must throw the ball to a team mate who must tag you out before you reach the base safely. You can choose to return to the base you started on, but to steal the base you must arrive safely on home.
When proceeding to first a runner can not retreat towards home nor can they come to a complete stop of forward motion. If they do either of these the the runner is to be called out without need of a tag on the runner or the base. This only applies to a runner between home and first.
Normally it is called Home Plate, but yes it could be considered one of the bases.
the area between the bases and home plate is called the base path.
the area between the bases and home plate is called the base path.
