it begins with a first inning and it goes on...
Well, you need to score runs to win, but one lucky swing can give you a homer. So if you look at it this way, if out of 27 batters, one hits a home run, you're ahead 1-0 if the other team doesn't score, which a good D will prevent. Also, baseball is the only sport in which the DEFENSE controls the ball, so I'd go with defense, if you hold them at zero, you'll eventually score.
If your team has the ball, you are on offense, not defense. The defensive team is the one trying to stop the offensive team from advancing and scoring. Your objective on offense is to move the ball down the field and create scoring opportunities. Conversely, when your team is on defense, your goal is to regain possession and prevent the opposing team from scoring.

A noun for something to stop an opposing team's offense is the defense.
On the field of play during a game there are 11 players on both offense and defense. On a team, where the active roster consists of 45 players, there is usually a breakdown of 21 or 22 players on both offense and defense. Two of the 45 players on the active roster are kickers (punter and placekicker) so that leaves 43 players to breakdown between offense and defense.
In softball, the defense can retire the offense in several ways, including striking out the batter, catching a fly ball for an out, forcing a runner out at a base, or tagging a runner with the ball. Additionally, a fielder can also retire a runner by stepping on a base before the runner arrives. Each of these methods contributes to getting batters and runners out and ending the offensive team's turn at bat.
A midfielder is a player who plays both offense and defense with an attack shaft and may play on both sides of the lacrosse field as long as there are only 5 other players on the same team on the same half of the field (excluding the goalie).
