What is the farthest a baseball has been hit?
There isn't really a limit.
Well, I suppose there is... at some point, the force that you'd have to hit it to make it go any further would break either the bat or the ball... but let's just say that in practice, it's the strength of the swing that makes the difference, and humans are nowhere near that limit.

Do runners have to advance on a ground ball?
That depends on whether a runner is forced to vacate a base when a ground ball is hit. If there is a runner on first base and a ground ball is hit, the runner is forced to run to second base because the batter is running to first base. If there is also a runner on second base, that runner is forced to run to third because the runner from first is running to second. If a runner is not forced to run, they do not have to. If there are runners on first base and third base and a ground ball is hit, the runner at first is forced to run to second because the batter is running to first. But the runner on third is not forced to run because no runner is running to third base from second base.
All rules and regulations of baseball game?
**Baseball Basic Rules** - Must have a pitcher, left field, centre, right field, third base, short stop, second base, first base, and a catcher on the field at all times. - 3 Strikes is an out. There are 3 outs in an inning - There is no run limit Those are the basic principles of baseball.
What happens when the pitcher catches a ball from the batter?
As soon as the bat hits the glove, the ball is dead. The batter is awarded first base, no matter if s/he hit the ball or not.
----------
Above is incorrect. The play is not necessarily immediately dead on catcher's interference. If the batter puts the ball into play, the umpire lets the play continue until all action has stopped before calling time. The Manager of the team at bat then has a choice of either taking the result of the play, or having the catcher's interference enforced, which would put the batter on 1B, and all runners forced to advance would advance. However, if the batter reaches base safely, and all other runners advance at least one base, then the interference is ignored.

Can you score a run on a double play when the second out is the third of the inning?
If the third out is a force play of any kind, then no runs score.
EXAMPLE: runners on first and third. Batter lays down a perfect bunt towards third base. Man on third comes home, man on first slips while running to second. Runner on third touches home well before third baseman fires the ball to second in time to make a force out. No runs scored.
If a runner touches home plate before a TAG OUT, however, the run scores, even if that tag out was the third out.
EXAMPLE: Same situation, but this time the runner going to second base gets there before there is a force play BUT over-runs second base and is tagged out. Inning is over but the run scores.
