👉 A sport common in North America, the Caribbean, and Japan, in which the object is to strike a ball so that one of a nine-person team can run counter-clockwise among four bases, resulting in the scoring of a run. The team with the most runs after termination of play, usually nine innings, wins.
Alright class, settle down and listen close, Let's talk about baseball, let’s make this lesson dose! That dictionary definition, it’s quite a spread, But let’s break it down, so you won’t be misled. Basically, baseball is a game of skill, With teams competing, standing perfectly still… (Well, mostly still!) – they move around with glee, Trying to score runs for all the world to see! Think of it this way: nine players on each side, A batter steps up, with nothing left to hide. They swing their bat and hope for a hit, To send that ball flying, just a little bit! Then runners dash ‘round bases, counter-clockwise you see, Like a circle of action, wild and truly free! Each base they touch, brings them closer to score, And the team with most runs, wins for sure! Nine innings long, the game will strive, To reach the end, keeping fans alive! So baseball’s about hitting, running, catching too, A classic sport enjoyed by me and you! Do you have any questions? Let's discuss with care, Now who can tell me, what a 'strike' is there?
