softball  

     I might not look much like a softball player but believe me or not i am. I am not really experienced tho. I just started last summer. I started playing for the boys and girls club. Didn't know much but slowly started progressing. Tbh i didn't know what i was doing. I couldn't throw the ball right or catch either. One time i tried catching a ground ball  but i positioned my glove wrong and it came up and hit me and gave me a bloody nose.

kind of like this but throwing ->

  My sister also joined the team so we both can try it out. She had the worst luck with the softballs.When she was in the dug out there were 2 little kids playing catch just outside the dugout and they threw the ball and it came into the dugout and hit my sister in the head. Also when she was practicing and we lined up and were just passing  to our partners ( the whole team). We were playing catch. The ball out of no were comes up and hits my sister in the face!Also she got hit with a bat!

 I then got a little better that summer.i wasn't really good but i think i liked it. I will totally do it again and i am really looking forward to this summer again to play. I think i will be allot better at it then what i was 2 years ago! well at least i hope i am. if not i need to get practicing!!!

 well i will now talk about softball. softball is a game that consist of two teams  playing against each other. One team is batting.NO one from that team just the batter can be out in the Field. the person who is batting bats at home base.In the picture you will see the home plate. They batter then has to hit the ball with a bat coming toward him / her. If the batter doesn't hit the ball 3 times and swings at the ball with out successfully hitting it will be out. If the ball hits the batter or the ball is to high or to low to swing it is the pitchers fault. It is then called a ball. If the pitcher throws 4 of those the batter will need to walk to the first base. If the batter hits the ball they then must run to the first base and not get out. You get out by the person from the other team has the ball in there glove and touches you with the ball or they catch the ball at first and touch the base and you not getting there in time. Once you are at the base you have to wait till the next batter hits the ball and you run to the 2 base and so forth.

 The opposite team is then in out on the Field with gloves. There is a pitcher, 1st baseman, 2nd baseman, 3rd baseman, catcher, left Field, right Field, middle fielder, and a short stop. The pitcher pitches the ball to the batter. The catcher catches the ball if the batter does not hit the ball. The short stop is in the middle of 2nd base and 3rd base . The 1,2, and 3 baseman are on there base trying to get the batter/ runner out. The team with the most home runs wins the game.
