Baseball is a game where a pitcher throws the ball over the home plate and between the batter's knees to their lower chest. If the ball is not of those rules, the pitch is counted as a ball. If the batter swings at a ball, it is counted as a strike. 4 balls and it is a walk to 1st base and 3 strikes is a strikeout and the player is out as a batter. 3 outs and it is a changeover. When the batter hits it and it goes out of the field, it is counted as a Home run where the batter runs back to home base at any speed. If the ball bounces and then goes over, it is called a ground out and the batter is out.

The ball is made of compressed cork and is really hard. If the pitcher throws the ball and it hits the batter, it is a balk which is just advancing to 1st base. If someone is on 1st base and it is a walk, the 1st base moves to 2nd base and so on. The catcher at the back catches the strikes and balls. it is their responsibility to keep the umpire safe and the ball from going into the backstop. The bat is usually made of maple wood.

Baseball is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of nine players each, who take turns batting and fielding. The batting team attempts to score runs by hitting a ball (that is thrown by the opposing team's pitcher) with a bat swung by the batter, and then running counter-clockwise around a series of four bases: first, second, third, and home plate. A run is scored when a player advances around the bases and returns to home plate.

Baseball is an athletic game in which two teams have 9 players on the field at a time. One team bats as the other fields, after the batting team gets three outs they switch. After nine times doing this (innings), the team with the most runs (points) wins the game. If tied, you play extra innings until someone wins.
