What is number of baseballs used in a 9 inning game?

Answer 1

Nine innings- for that mater nine players MAY reflect the nine-month growing season- if you accept the idea that Baseball evolved out of some form of ( like Harvest festivals) agrarian Sun-worship among American Indians. this theory was espoused by Ripley- and also accounts for the four bases being symbolic of the Four Seasons- the aversion to Night Baseball ( for decades) and the fact it is not played in inclement weather- Here Comes the Sun- indeed!

Answer 2

Major League Baseball, Minor League, and most college games are 9 innings in length, because that's the rule. Some college games will be only 7 innings, but generally only if it's the first game of a double-header. Most High School games are 7 innings. PONY also plays 7 innings, and Little League (12-years-old and under) play only 6 innings. Howrever, until the High School level is reached, most games are played with a time limit established by the local league.

Answer 3

5 innings need to be played for a game to be official in a 9 inning game.

Actually, 4 1/2 innings need to be completed if the home team is ahead, 5 innings if the home team is behind to make it an official game.

Answer 4

There is no set number of balls that are used. When a ball is hit into the stands, via home run, foul ball, ground-rule double, etc. that ball belongs to the person who catches it and they must use another ball. Some balls are thrown to the fans by the players or the ball girl. If a ball becomes scuffed, the umpire will discard that ball and use a new one. Sometimes the feel of a baseball may not feel right to the pitcher and will request another ball. The ball he rejects will also be discarded.

Answer 5

That answer is unknown...MLB and the teams do not keep statistics like that.

Answer 6

The number of baseballs used in a 9 inning game can differ from many foul balls and homeruns. So there is no exact number of baseballs used in a 9 inning game.

Answer 7

yes there is 9 innings
