What are major league umpires required to wear under their uniforms while on the job?
According to the official MLB rules, section 9, umpires are required to wear a uniform, but it does not describe what the uniform is. It is safe to assume that they all have to appear in the same clothing (hence uniform), and it cannot be deceptively similar to one of the teams' uniforms.
When did baseball player Jim Bethke play?
Jim Bethke debuted on April 12, 1965 and played his final game on September 11, 1965.
What happens when you run out of pitchers in a baseball game?
If a team can not provide 9 players to finish a game then the game will therefore be forfeited. Under Official Baseball Rules, it says that a game will be forfeited when a team is unable to or refuses to place nine players on the field.
Can a baseball perfect game be less than 9 innings?
Well in a full 9 Inning Game each time makes 27 outs. (3 outs for 9 innings). Thus combined the teams make 54 outs. So if every player swung and hit very first pitch and every pitch was an out that would be 54 pitches combined with both teams pitchers. However that would end in a 0-0 tie so it would go into extra innings so it wouldn't be a complete game. Thus if you say ONE player hit a first pitch and hit a home run on a first pitch to give his team a 1-0 lead and thus a complete nine inning game then it would be 55 pitches.
However that would mean that both pitchers would have to be PERFECT and COMPLETELY ACCURATE. and the Hitters would have to swing and HIT every FIRST pitch so its almost completely impossible.
Which MLB team drew 4 million plus fans in 2005?

How far is the pitching mound from home plate in pony league baseball?
50 feet
Actually it depends:
Mustang: 9-10 year old league; 44 feet
Bronco: 11-12 year old league; 48 feet
Pony: 13-14 year old league; 54 feet
Colt and Palomino: I believe are 60 feet
