GermanGerman Wikipedia has an article on: Baseball BaseballNounBaseball m. (genitive Baseballs, plural Baseballs) From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams of nine players each. The goal 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 ninety-foot square, or diamond. Players on one team (the batting team) take turns hitting against the pitcher of the other team (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 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. Evolving from older bat-and-ball games, an early form of baseball was being played in England by the mid-eighteenth century. This game and the related rounders were brought by British and Irish immigrants to North America, where the modern version of baseball developed. By the late nineteenth century, baseball was widely recognized as the national sport of the United States. Baseball on the professional, amateur, and youth levels is now popular in North America, parts of Central and South America and the Caribbean, and parts of East Asia. The game is sometimes referred to as hardball, in contrast to the derivative game of softball. In North America, professional Major League Baseball (MLB) teams are divided into the National League (NL) and American League (AL). Each league has three divisions: East, West, and Central. Every year, the major league champion is determined by playoffs that culminate in the World Series. Four teams make the playoffs from each league: the three regular season division winners, plus one wild card team. Baseball is the leading team sport in both Japan and Cuba, and the top level of play is similarly split between two leagues: Japan's Central League and Pacific League; Cuba's West League and East League. In the National and Central leagues, the pitcher is required to bat, per the traditional rules. In the American, Pacific, and both Cuban leagues, there is a tenth player, a designated hitter, who bats for the pitcher. Each top-level team has a farm system of one or more minor league teams. These teams allow younger players to develop as they gain on-field experience against opponents with similar levels of skill. From Wikipedia under the

When is the Baseball World Series Game? Does the little league have a game equivalent to the world series? What's an all-star game? Asked by T-scope - Sun Aug 30 17:05:31 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. It starts in early April and ends in October after the World Series (as the person above me said, there is no pre-determined date). Little League starts around the same time, but ends much earlier, in May or June (all-star team plays in July). There is a Little League World Series, which consists of Little League All-Star teams from around the country that have already won their district, sectionals, and states. It is being played now, actually. The MLB All-Star game is an annual game in July in which the best players from both leagues play against each other (National League vs. American League). Fans vote for the position players that make the team, and the pitchers and reserves are chosen by the managers.
