You can find the distance between first and third on any Baseball or softball field by using the following formula:
A squared plus B squared equals C squared.
A is the distance between home and first base
B is the distance between home and third base
C is the distance between first base and third base.
So, in MLB, where the distances between bases is 90 ft., it would be 127 feet 3 inches.

ViviTo do this you would use Pathagreon's Theory. 602 + 602 = (square root of) 7200 = ~84.85 feet. This represents that straight line between the bases. It measure from the tip of one bag to the tip of the other bag.

What is the distance between home plate and 1st base in fast pich softball?
The distance is 60 ft
What is the distance between 3rd and 1st base in softball?
89 feet 10 inches
What is the distance from 1st base to 3rd with 80 foot bases?
You can find the distance between first and third on any baseball or softball field by using the following formula: A squared plus B squared equals C squared. A is the distance between home and first base B is the distance between home and third base C is the distance between first base and third base. So with 70 ft. bases, it would be 99 feet.
What is the distance from third base to first on a major league baseball field?
The distance between 1st base and 3rd base on a MLB field is 127'.
What is the distance from 1st base to 3rd base across the baseball diamond?
The distance across the diamond is 114.6 feet.
Why is the pitchers mound not in the center of the baseball diamond?
This is because the rules of baseball say the mound is a distance from homeplate that is less than halfway the distance between homeplate and 2nd base. The distance is the same between each base in order (the same from home to 1st, 1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd, 3rd to home.) This results in the distance between homeplate and 2nd equal to the distance between 1st and 3rd. If you draw a line between homeplate and 2nd, and a line between 1st and 3rd, the lines will intersect in the center of the baseball diamond. However, the center point will be behind the pitcher's mound. You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to prove the distance from the mound to home is less than the center point, but that is another question. (Hint: The distance squared from home to first plus the distance squared from first to second divided by 2).
If the bases are 70 apart the distance from home plate to second base is?
99 feet. You can find the distance between home and second on any baseball or softball field by using the following formula: A squared plus B squared equals C squared. A is the distance between home and first base B is the distance between first base and second base C is the distance between home and second base.
Distance of 1st base and 2nd base?
Pythagorean Theorem. We know its 90 feet between the bases, and we know that you're describing a right triangle, so we can figure the distance between home plate and second base as: 90^2 + 90^2 = x^2 8100 + 8100 = x^2 16200 = x^2 127.29 feet
What is the distance from 3rd base to 1st base on a softball diamond?
On a 60' square diamond it is 89' 10".
Is the distance between home plate and second base in major league baseball?
127.28 ft ... 90' between bases, 127.28'= hypotenuse of the triangle made by home, 1st & 2nd
What is the distance from 1st base to 2nd base across the baseball diamond?
the distance between all the bases in major league baseball is 90 feet. home --> first first--> second second--> third third--> home all are 90 feet apart
What position plays near 1st base?
1st baseman (to the left and up and little), 2nd baseman (between 1st base and 2nd base), or right outfielder (to the left and back).
