BASEBALL

KEY

Note: There may be more solutions than the ones in this key.

Baseball is America's national sport. But, although/even though/while it originated in the


USA baseball is played in many other countries, especially in Central and South America
and Japan. Baseball became/was an Olympic sport at the 1992 Olympics.

Baseball is not only a sport but an American way/style of life. Many families spend
summer afternoons with their children at a baseball park, sitting in the stands with
popcorn and hot dogs. They cheer for their favourite team and wear their baseball caps.

The game is played with a long wooden bat and a small hard ball. The players have large
heavy gloves to catch/grab/capture the ball. They usually wear/have light shirts and
knee-long trousers. Shoes have spikes on them to help players run on the field.

A baseball field is divided into two parts. The infield has the shape of a diamond and is
bordered by the bases that runners run around. A few players stand in the grassy outfield
and wait to catch the ball without letting it drop on the ground.

A baseball game consists of nine parts called innings. Teams take turns trying to score
runs and defend. A pitcher throws the ball towards a batter who tries to hit it so that the
other team can't catch it. The batter tries to run around the bases as quickly/fast/rapidly
as possible. A ball that is hit into the stands is called a home run. The team that scores the
most runs after nine innings wins the game.
