What is the Width of the baseline runner baseball?
The width of the baseline is irrelevant if applied correctly. The outside of the foul line should be even with the outside of the 1st and 3rd base bag in a straight line from home plate (with home plate being in fair territory) to the fence. The key to putting a foul line down is making it wide enough that it is visible from all points on the field so a ball can be clearly seen if fair or foul. Most common foul lines are around 4 inches in width, but like i said this is irrelevant to the game play if applied correctly ---Tigersy2k3
