If the ball by rule is a fair ball, the runner must reach 1st base before he/she is put out. If the ball by rule is a foul ball, it is a strike. There are other rules regarding bunts, interference, and so on, but basically that's it.

Can you break in the demarini cf5 fastpitch bat wrong?

Yes you can break it in wrong. Some batters will find the same place to look at on the bat when they're getting ready to hit. Doing this causes you to hit the ball on the same side of the bat over and over. The correct way to break in the bat and for the life of the bat is to rotate the bat 1/4 turn every time you step in the box. This will help distribute the number of times the bat strikes the ball.

Can a frozen baseball o as far as a warm baseball?

No. A frozen baseball will die off the bat because the reason a baseball reacts to a bat is the connection between the ball and the bat. The bat will not affect the ball in the same way when the ball is frozen.. I recommend trying this because it will damage the bat.


Is it a strike if ball hits the bat but the batter is not swinging?

Yes, whether the batter attempted to contact the ball or not, if the ball strikes the bat and is fouled off, it is a strike, unless there are already two strikes, of course. If, on the other hand, the ball strikes the bat and goes into fair territory, the ball is in play, and the runner can attempt to reach first.
