between two teams of nine players. The aim is to score runs by
hitting a thrown ball with a bat and touching a series of four bases
arranged at the corners of a 90-foot diamond. Players on the
batting team take turns hitting against the pitcher of the fielding
team, which tries to stop them from scoring runs by getting hitters
out in any of several ways. A player on the batting team

out in any of several ways. A player on the batting team hitters out
in any of several ways. A player on the batting team can stop at any
of the bases and fielding team, which tries to stop them from
scoring runs by getting hitters out in any of several ways. A player
on the batting team can stop at any of the bases and later advance
via a teammate's hit or other means. The teams switch between
batting and fielding whenever the fielding team records three outs.
One turn at bat for each team constitutes an inning and nine
innings make up a professional game. The team with the most runs
at the end of the game wins.“ Baseball. In: Wikipedia: the free
