The objective is to score runs by hitting a pitched ball and running around four bases arranged in a square. The team that bats tries to hit the ball and run through the bases, while the team that fields tries to stop them by catching the ball or tagging the runners out. The game is played in nine innings, and the team with the most runs at the end wins. Baseball is known for its strategy, teamwork, and the skill required to hit, pitch, and field.
