dead balls can occur when a player is hit by the pitch, the ball goes out of play, the ball hits a batter twice when batting. There may be others, but those arte the only ones I can think of right now.
A ball simply means that the pitcher threw a ball too high or low.Also if the ball is no where near the plate its considered a ball.But if the batter swings and misses its a strike.In softball there is 4 balls if the pitcher throws 4 balls then the batter gets to walk.Walking means that they get to first base and if there is someone on first they advance to the next base.If the bases are loaded then you automatically get a point.
