FAQ’s
How are games played in baseball?
Baseball is a game that is played by two teams of nine players. The aim of the game is to score more runs than the other team. A run is scored when a player from the batting team touches all four bases in order, without being put out.
The fielding team tries to make outs by catching fly balls or tagging runners with the ball before they reach a base. When three outs have been made, the teams change places and it is now the batting team’s turn to try and score runs. There are many different ways of playing baseball, but this is how the game is generally played.
