    When it comes to pitching in softball and baseball you will be able to spot the difference right away. Pitchers in baseball throw the baseball over hand while softball players throw the softball underhand. Since softball players throw softballs underhand there is a difference in the pitching rules of baseball and softball. Softball players do not a have a regulation on how many innings they can throw, while baseball players have a limit of how many innings they are allowed to throw. This rule was established because throwing overhand takes a huge toll on the arm, while throwing underhand is more of a natural motion. The similarity between these two sports is the way pitches are called, balls and strikes, and hits and walks determine both sports and the outcome in the end.…

    Baseball is a bat and ball sport played between two teams of nine players each. The object of baseball is to score runs by hitting a ball thrown, with a bat and touching a series of four markers called bases arranged at the corners of a ninety-foot square, or what they would call a diamond. Unlike the majority of sports, baseball playing fields can vary significantly, within certain guidelines, in size and shape of the field. Players on one team take turns hitting while the other team tries to stop them from scoring runs by getting hitters out in any of several ways. You can make an out by making a play at the bases, striking out the batter, or by catching a fly ball. The teams switch between batting and fielding whenever the team that is fielding gets three outs. One turn at bat for each team constitutes an inning. There are nine innings that make up a professional game. The team with the most runs at the end of the game is the winning…
