the bases in soft ball are generally 45 to 65 feet apart.
Use the Pythagorean theorem square root of C is equal to a^2 + b^2
Where a and b are the two base lines a - between first and second and b - between second and third... in most cases a and b should be equal numbers... square them and add them then take the square root of that to find your diagonal line through the square or diamond from third base to first base. Lets say the distance between the bases is 45 feet.
so the distance between first and third is the square root of 45 squared + 45 squared
2025 + 2025 = 4050
square root of 4050 is your answer
63.64 feet between first and third on a softball diamond that has 45 feet separation between bases.
Its 120ft if youre running the bases.

What is the difference between slow pitch softball and regular softball?
Slowpitch Softball is played using a high-arc pitching technique where the ball slowly falls into the strike-zone. Slowpitch speeds range from 25mph-35mph. Fastpitch Softball a windmill pitching technique is used that increases that speed of the pitch significantly and allows the pitcher to throw different kinds of pitches like drop, rise, curve, screw, and change. Fastpitch speed range from usually 50mph-65mph. The rules are basically the same, minus some variations in batting. In slow pitch if you foul off the third strike you are out. In fastpitch the strike is not called until you swing with no contact with the ball. Both require different equipment. EX:A fastpitch bat is different from a slowpitch bat. Slow Pitch...the coach pitches it and fast pitch....one of the teammates pitches it! :)
What is the distance from 1st base to 3rd with 80 foot bases?
You can find the distance between first and third on any baseball or softball field by using the following formula: A squared plus B squared equals C squared. A is the distance between home and first base B is the distance between home and third base C is the distance between first base and third base. So with 70 ft. bases, it would be 99 feet.
IN fast pitch softball how many feet from third to first base?
50feet
How far does a third baseman need to throw to first in 14U softball?
That would depends on where they field the ball. Howeverthe distance from the 3rd base bag and the 1st base bag is just under 85 feet.
What does the term Hollywood mean in fastpitch softball?
Hollywood is a trick play that the offense runs when there are runners on first and third. The runner on first pretends to start running, but "trips and falls". They are trying to entice the defense to try to get them out. As soon as the defensive falls for it, the runner at third is supposed to break home. If there are two outs the runner must score before the player is tagged out for the run to count. If there is less than two out all the runner has to do is reach home safely for the run to count.
In softball if there are no runners on the base why would the coach tell you to hit to the third base area?
Because it is a longer throw from third to first and the first basemen is more likely to miss the ball
What Distance is third to first in softball?
The number is not a whole number. It has many decimal places. The distance from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd is both 60 ft. Being a 45 45 90 degree triangle, both sixty foot baselines will equal 'x' while the answer will be X times the square root of 2. And 60 times the square root of 2 is 84.8528137... So basically, the distance from third to first is 84.8528137...feet. The distance from home to seccond is exactly the same.
What is a split bases scenario in softball?
split bases, is basically a fielding term, for when there are runners on first and third bases.
A man travels 10kmph first one third of distance 20kmph second one third and 60kmph third one third of distance find average distance?
It is not possible to compute the average distance from the information given. Average speed, yes; average distance, no.
