The rules of the game of baseball include the following:
Number of people and venues for the competition: The minimum legal number of players for a baseball game is 9. The playing field is a diamond-shaped area, with right-angled sides of the line that separates the area inside and outside the boundary. Within the two sides of the line is the boundary;Outside the two sides of the line is the area outside the boundary. Both in-bounds and out-of-bounds areas are eligible areas. The in-bounds area is further divided into infield and outfield. The infield is square with one base at each of the four corners, and the base at the sharp corner on the same level is home plate, and is the first, second and third base in a counterclockwise direction. The area outside the infield is the outfield.
Offensive and defensive rulesBaseball is divided into 9 innings, each with two halves. The field is divided into two sides, the home team generally defends first, and the away team attacks first. The next half transitions. The players who hit on the field are the attackers, and the rest are the defenders. Each side attacks and defends once in each game, and the one with the most points after 9 rounds wins. If there are more points after 9 innings, an additional inning will be added until the match is over.
Scoring rules: The attacking team runs to the base after hitting the ball and touches it in turn.
The offensive act of first, second, third base, and finally safely stepping on home plate is called "scoring".
Out rules: The loss of the right to bat, run or score a player of the offensive team is called "out".
Hits and home runs: The batter hits the ball to an open space where the defender can't catch it properly, and he successfully runs to first base to hit a hit. After the batsman hits the opposing incoming ball (usually out of the outfield guardrail), the batsmen run through in turn.
The offensive method of first, second, and third base and safe return to home plate is a very exciting climax moment in a baseball game called a home run.
Player position: All nine defenders play, one pitcher standing on the pitcher's mound to pitch, one catcher crouching behind the batter to catch the pitcher's ball, and seven fielders who are responsible for passing the ball from the batter, namely the first baseman, the second baseman, the third baseman, the shortstop, the left fielder, the middle fielder, and the right fielder.
Boots: When a batter doesn't hit the ball, the runner succeeds in hitting base, which is called stealing.
The above rules are the basic rules of baseball, and it is recommended to refer to the relevant instructions for more comprehensive rule guidance.
