Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams, each consisting of nine players. The game is played on a diamond-shaped field with bases at each corner, and the objective is to score runs by hitting a ball thrown by a pitcher and then running around the bases to return to home plate. The team in the field has players that include a pitcher, catcher, infielders, and outfielders, while the opposing team takes turns at bat attempting to hit the ball and score runs. The game consists of nine innings, and the team with the most runs at the end of the game wins. Baseball is known for its rich history, statistical intricacies, and cultural significance in countries like the United States, Japan, and Cuba. It is often labeled as America’s pastime due to its deep-rooted connections to American culture and society.
