For our out of class assignment this week we were asked to research out sport. Ours being baseball was hard because its not in season right now so i asked a friend of mine who plays baseball at the college level a few questions about the game so i could get a better understanding of the game. I asked him to describe the game of baseball to me.
He said the game consists of 2 teams with 9 players in the feild at a time. One team is up to bat and one team is in the field. The team that is in the field pitches the ball to the team bating. each bater gets 3 strikes or 4 balls. If the pitcher pitches 3 stikes and the bater does not hit any of the balls he is considered out. Each team has to get three players out before they teams switch positions. A strike meaning that it is in a range that the player would be able to hit it. A ball means the pitch was to high and to low for the batter to possible be able to hit it. When the ball is hit by the player at bat the team in the field tried to get the ball to first second third or home plate before the players on base get to the next base. The goal of the game it to get more runs and in the home plate than the opossite team. There are nine innings in the game and there is a top and a bottom to each inning. In the ninth inning you can score as many funs as you want un like the others.
I asked him why he likes the game. He said that he has been playing the game for years now and he likes the game because of the action and the trill of trying to win. He said the game pushed him to do his best becasue its a team effort and everyone that is playing has to try to do their best!
