My Favorite Sport

Softball, I love softball because well… I just love it. If you don’t know what softball is (and I hope you do) here are some of the rules. You have a pitcher who throws the ball to a batter on the oppisite team. If the batter hits the ball then he runs. You have 9 people on the field, the 1st baseman, 2nd baseman, 3rd baseman, shortstop, catcher, pitcher, left field, right field, and center field. All 9 people are trying to get the ball, who ever gets it throws it to 1st base and if the ball gets to the base before the batter does then the batter is out. Sounds easy right? Well guess what that’s only the basics, there are so many more rules that ifI tried to put them all on this page I would 2-3 pages full of rules of softball. That’s why I put this link on about the rules of softball.I started playing softball when I was about 6, so being twelwe I have played for about 5 years because after we moved to Malaysia there was no softball so we found a baseball team. Softball and Baseball are basically the same some of the only differences are in softball the ball is bigger tham in baseball. Baseball is usually played with boys and softball with girls. The pitching styles are different. I practice every Saturday and this weekend November 29 and 30 we are going to Singapore for a tournament! I love tournaments because its fun to play other teams and I ecspecally love tournaments when you travel to a new place because you get to new things and places.
