Best Answer

88 feet, the same as from home to first.

AnswerThis is a trick question. The distance from point to point is exactly 90 feet, but each bag is 1 foot wide, which means that the distance between them is, in fact, 88 feet.

Each bag is a 15 inch by 15 inch square. First base is entirely inside the infield but second base is centered on the 90 foot point. So 90 feet minus 15 inches minus 7.5 inches = 90 feet minus 22.5 inches or 88 feet 1.5 inches.

How many feet are between baseball bases for minor league baseball teams?

There are 90 feet between each base in MLB. The baseball "diamond" is a square, 90 feet on a side. Home plate, first base and third base are located in three corners of the square, but second base is centered on the fourth corner. Since home plate lies along the first 12 inches of the first base line and first base is 15 inches across, the distance form home to first along the first base line is actually 27 inches less than 90 feet, namely 87 feet, 9 inches; similarly between home and third. The distance from first to second along the unmarked edge of the diamond is 88 feet, 1.5 inches; likewise from second to third. Details of the layout of the baseball diamond can be found in section 1 of the Official Baseball Rules, available online at the related link below.
