Baseball

A player can run out of the path (for instance, while rounding the bases) as long as there is not a possible play. Once there is a possible play, the runner must be within 3-4 feet of the base path.

Baseball rules provide that a runner is out when he is struck by a batted ball (provided the ball was not touched by a fielder first). All other runners return to the base they occupied at the time of the pitch. However, the batter is awarded first base and all runners that have to advance because of this advance. The Official Baseball Rules are 5.09(f) and 7.08(f).

Yes. If the official scorer deems that an out would have been made had another fielder not made an error after the player who would have gotten the assist played the ball, the assist is given.

If the first baseman drops a throw from an infielder that would have made an out on a ground ball, the infielder is given an assist and the first baseman is given an error. If the catcher throws a perfect strike to second base to catch a runner stealing and the second baseman drops the ball allowing the runner to be safe when he would have been out by five feet, the catcher is given an assist and the second baseman is given an error.

It depends on what you define as oldest, but you should probably consider the ancient Greek Olympics, where the did weight lifting, discuss throwing, and running. I would say the oldest of all professional sports is running, because humans have probably been racing each other for thousands and thousands of years.

I have seen answers that range from 75% to 85%, but you can't go by those kinds of odds. Odds in baseball are completely different than, say, poker or craps. With poker, you always have 52 cards in a deck and the number never changes. With craps, the dice faces never change.

In baseball, your odds are determined by the abilities of at least six (Pitcher, Catcher, Batter 1, Batter 2, Batter 3, Base Runner on second) and up to thirteen (the remaining fielders) or more (Batter 4 if one of the other batters is walked) players.

Just some factors:

Is the pitcher on his "A" game? And even if so, is he an ace or mediocre?

The batting averages of the upcoming batters.

Are any of those batters hot or cold?

If NL, Will the pitcher be batting?

What are the fielding percentages of the players behind the pitcher?

Will the pitcher intentionally walk the next batter to try and create a force-out situation?

Prior to Cliff Lee in 2008, that was Gaylord Perry who went 21-13 in 1974.

Yes, his wife's name is Johannah (sp?) and they have two children, a 4-year old son named Houston and a 4-month old daughter named Macey.

Im a beginner, and i am currently using baseball grip, even though everyone is telling me to use interlocking from the start. I think the reason that i am using baseball grip is that my right hand is very lazy. I find that when im gripping the club, my right hand moves more towards the back of the grip ie, away from the target, so that at impact it feels like my right hand is behind the behind the club. I have to say that i am hooking and topping alot, so it is not an ideal situation. To compensate for this i am not swinging a full swing. My main problem is that when i use the interlocking grip, i feel that i cannot hinge my wrists at the end of my backswing. So, to answer the question, everyone will advise that interlocking is best. Baseball in my opinion is used a lot by beginners. But i have to say that despite the fact that i currently use it, i dont feel that my game will improve much until i get that right hand steadied and the right palm covering my left thumb. To do that i feel that i need to evolve to interlocking at some point. So, baseball is not necessarily bad for golf, but it may limit your development.

The lines that are drawn in white from home to 1st and home to 3rd, and in both cases all the way past the two bases to the outfield walls, are called the foul lines. There is no line drawn on the field from 1st to 2nd, nor 2nd to 3rd.

As of May 16, 2008 Johnny Bench is very much alive.

Draft picks cannot be traded. In addition, a player once drafted cannot be traded until 1 year to the day after signing. This explains a lot of times when a player is traded for a player to be named later, (Jeremy Bonderman was a player to be named later in the Jeff Weaver trade in 2003 because Bonderman signed on August 2, 2002 but Weaver was traded on July 6, 2003 so Oakland had to wait until August 2, 2003 to trade him so he was called a player to be named later)

Impossible to answer with absolute certainty, but if you are strictly talking sidearmers and no submariners, that eliminates all but one.

Only Mets righty Joe Smith throws a true sidearm pitch and he sits 89-92 with his fastball.

If you include the submariners such as Byung Hyun Kim, Minnesota's Pat Neshek among others, the average probably drops a bit. Submarine pitchers tend to rely more on deception than velocity and often rush it up to the plate in the 85-88 mph range.

Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Andy Pettitte and Jorge Posada all have 5 championship rings each.

Yes, my son did last night!

Pee Wee Reese.

In his major-league debut at Candlestick Park on July 19, 1960, the Dominican Dandy hurled a no hitter against the Philadelphia Phillies for seven and two-thirds innings. The only hit off Marichal was a single by Phillies catcher Clay Dalrymple with two outs in the eighth. He went on to shut out Philadelphia for his first major-league win.

The Major League Baseball player who holds the career record for the most games played is Pete Rose who has played in 3,562 games, the player who has grounded into the double plays in their career is Cal Ripken, Jr. who has grounded into 350 double plays and the player who holds the career record with having the most assists is Elvis Andrus who has recorded 516 in his career.

I believe the distance between bases is 90 feet. therefore the perimeter is 360 feet........I think?
