The orange base is commonly used in Major League Baseball (MLB) and various youth Baseball leagues to enhance player safety. The distinct color helps to differentiate the base from the traditional white bases, reducing the risk of collisions during plays. Additionally, some softball leagues also adopt the orange base for similar safety reasons.

How many feet from home base to home base?
