Yes, it's "America's Pastime" and was invented by Abner Doubleday in an unremembered late 19th century year.

roughly 4,000

When a batter gives himself up to move a runner from one base to the next. Technically it is supposed to be an intentional act, but the official scorekeepers generally give the batter the benefit of any doubt.

Yes, more than once... 49 was his personal high -----
Aaron hit 44 home runs in 1957, 40 in 1960, 45 in 1962, 44 in 1963, 44 in 1966, 44 in 1969, 47 in 1971, and 40 in 1973.

3 at least one player has gotten 3 hits in an inning. i think most runs in an inning is 17, the last would be an out, so at most there could be 19 hits barring something weird, that's two for everone and three for the leadoff batter. somehow Chicago 1953 comes to mind but im drunk. pete rose is god

Not sure where this is going. I'm going to answer this assuming you're asking about how the wild card works.

There are three divisions in each league. East, West, and Central. Because there are only three divisions, that means that two of the divisions will play against each other in the post season, but the other division will be left with nobody to play. The wild card spot goes to the team who has the next best record. The wild card evens out the playoff bracket.

The longest American League game to end in a tie was a 24-inning contest between the Detroit Tigers and Philadelphia Athletics on July 21, 1945. The teams were tied 1-1 when the game was called due to darkness at Shibe Park; the Tigers' Les Mueller had pitched a record 19 2/3 innings (and only given up one run) before being taken out in the 20th.

No.

But this rule does not come into effect until AFTER the force out at first base occurs.

In other words, until that force out at first happens, the runner who was on first must advance. But AFTER the force out occurs, the runner who was on first need not do so.

If a first baseman steps on first and then immediately fires to second base, the person covering second base must tag out the runner coming towards second base.

I've seen twenty-year veterans of MLB forget this -- they take the throw from the first baseman after a force out at first base, step on second base, and then walk away without tagging the runner.

Used baseballs are either thoroughly cleansed to be used in other games, used in batting practice, or recycled to make new baseballs.

MLB player Aaron Loup throws left.

The first player to wear #45 for the Mets was pitcher Ron Locke in 1964. Others to wear the number:

1) Tug McGraw: 1965-1974

2) Rick Baldwin: 1975-1977

3) Butch Metzger: 1978

4) Jeff Reardon: 1979-1980

5) Brent Gaff: 1982-1984

6) Randy Niemann: 1985

7) John Candelaria: 1987

8) Edwin Nunez: 1988

9) Mark Carreon: 1990-1991

10) Paul Gibson: 1992-1993

11) Mauro Gozzo: 1994

12) Jerry DiPoto: 1995-1996

13) John Franco: 1998-2004

14) Pedro Martinez: 2005-2008

An average 7 year old can throw from 30 to 40 mph. A 7 year old that is a freak and stand out and one of the best on the best of team can throw 45 and top out at 50 max.

Of 'course they do. Just like a baseball catcher they have to be protected from the runners,ball,and the bat. If they don't wear equipment then they will get really hurt. It is a rule for them to wear them. It's safe.

By my calculations, i estimate that for a standard four door sedan, you could fit anywhere between 22,500 an up to 30,000 to . golf balls. That is of course depending on whether or not all of the cavities are utilised.

Thousands of batters have gone a whole season with at least one hitless at-bat. The most plate appearances in a season with no hits is held by pitcher Bob Buhl, who went 0-for-70 in 1962.

The lowest nonzero batting average in a season is .016, held by Brewers left-hander Doug Davis, who went 1-for-64 in 2004.

By a nonpitcher: Yankees' CF Skeeter Shelton went 1-for-40 in 1915 for a .025 batting average.

Lowest Batting average in a season with at least:

100 PA: Dean Chance, P, 1967, Minnesota Twins, .033

200 PA: Frank O'Rourke, 3B, 1912. Boston Braves, .122

300 PA: Bill Bergen, C, 1909, Brooklyn Dodgers, .139

400 PA: Dal Maxvill, SS, 1969, St. Louis Cardinals, .175

500 PA: Rob Deer, RF, 1991, Detroit Tigers, .179

The table, or plateau, of a pitching mound should be 5 foot by 3 foot. The placement should be so it measures 6 inches in front of the pitcher's rubber, 24 inches in the back of the rubber, and 18 inches on each side of the rubber.

It depends which way he is throwing the ball. If he is twisting his wrist he could hurt his elbow and end up seriously injured. Only adults should twist their wrist when throwing a curve ball. There is a way to throw a curve ball without hurting your arm though. What you do is you get your grip on the baseball and throw the ball like a football. I throw my curves this way and they are pretty nasty.

The players must udoubtbly enjoy knowing we are most supportive of their success. it would be great to belong to their fan club.BUT they have a right to privacy.ANd with so many unstables in this old world; how are they to know whom to trust .Send your notes to the (office manager?/or to him in care of the team. . what I'd like to know-(I am doing genealogy on the WASHBURN(my husband's AUnt ROse E.THOMPSON mar:a (Elmer Washburn --born in 1870 in Evansville ,Wi. they had a son Steven/-or?-Bterune?)biorn 1899 in MN.(1900 census of Itasca county,MN.) I am grasping at any straw I can think of. could You please pass this along also?? thanks a million. ANd I too agree you are all great,

You can also write to them directly, in care of the team address. There is no guarentee that you will receive a response, however, it is worth a shot. Address your envelopes to:

Jordan Schafer currently wears number 24 for the Braves.

It is reasonable to assume that some type of ball game similar to football, from which the sport we know today developed, has been played somewhere on the planet (most likely China) for more than 3,000 years. I'd imagine that during this 3,000 years time period the rules and play field had varied. It's pretty much common sense (and tradition) that most sports that contain "goals" on either end will be rectangular in shape. How else would you accommodate a sport with this much activity happening and with two teams, one on either side ? Rectangular is the only answer because a square playing field would direct too much play to the sidelines and no concentrated focus on the goal of each opposing team. It could get pretty boring if it was any other shape. The actual dimensions of a modern sized Football pitch were written out by English FA in 1863.

That depends on the number of outs. If there were two outs, none of the runs would count as an RBI. If there were less than two outs, the first run would count as an RBI and the second run would not.
