Each team gets a turn to bat in half of the inning, while the other team is out in the field. The visiting team is first to bat while the home team takes the field and starts the game with the first pitch. Each team is allowed three outs in their half of an inning. THE FAIR TERRITORY FIELD CENTER FIELD LEFT RIGHT FIELD FIELD SECOND BASE THIRD FIRST BASE BASE HOME PLATE FOUL TERRITORY Common Baseball Terms Strike Zone An area above the plate that pitchers are trying to throw the ball into. Think of it like an invisible target above the plate that the pitcher is trying to pitch to. STRIKE ZONE 2020 JR. DODGERS BASEBALL GUIDE | 5 Common Baseball Terms (Continued) Strike A pitch in the strike zone that the umpire calls a strike, a pitch a batter swings and misses, or when a batter hits a foul ball Ball A pitch outside of the strike zone Foul ball A ball that isn’t hit into the fair part of the field Fair territory In-bounds Foul territory Out of bounds Hit When the batter uses his bat to hit the ball into fair territory and makes it safely to a base Walk When the pitcher throws four balls to a batter Out There are many ways to get out in baseball, here are a few: • If a batter gets three strikes, they are out. • If the batter hits a ball into the air and a player on the other team catches it. After getting out, the player returns to the dugout and waits for the half inning to be over or for their next turn to bat. When there are three outs, the half-inning is over and the team in the field gets to hit. Single When a batter gets a hit and makes it safely to first base Double When a batter gets a hit and makes it safely to second base Triple When a batter gets a hit and makes it safely to third base Home Run When a player hits a ball, usually over the fence, and makes it safely around all four bases Run When a player makes it around all of the bases without getting out, they score a run. RBI When a player gets a hit that allows one or more runners to cross home plate, they get credited with “Run(s) Batted In” Positions RHP Right-Handed Pitcher 3B Third Base LHP Left-Hander Pitcher SS Shortstop C Catcher LF Left Field 1B First Base CF Center Field 2B Second Base RF Right Field 6 | LOS ANGELES DODGERS Jr. Dodgers Scorecard JR.

  • Phillies' Victorino Gets Dumped On, Becomes Latest Pour Man's Al Smith by Paul Ladewski Posted on Monday, August
    Phillies’ Victorino gets dumped on, becomes latest pour man’s Al Smith By Paul Ladewski Posted on Monday, August 17th One-time White Sox outfielder Al Smith was a productive hitter for much of his 12 seasons in the major leagues, but the three-time All-Star is best remembered neither for any of his 1,466 career hits nor his Negro League exploits before them. Fifty years after the fact, any mention of Smith immediately stokes memories of Game 2 of the 1959 World Series, when he took perhaps the most famous beer bath in baseball history. As the headline of his New York Times obituary said, “Al Smith, 73, Dies; Was Doused in Series.” Smith passed away in January, 2002, but his name came to light again last Wednesday night, when Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Shane Victorino was doused by an overzealous Cubs fan at Wrigley Field. Compared to what Smith endured, Victorino has no reason to cry in his beer. At least he was able to catch the ball on the warning track in left-center field. On that Friday, Oct. 2, afternoon at Comiskey Park, Smith could only watch helplessly while the ball hit by Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Charlie Neal landed several feet into the lower deck in left field. Mere fractions of seconds earlier, in his haste to retrieve the ball, a fan named Melvin Piehl inadvertently knocked over a full cup of beer from atop the ledge of the wall. “It hit the bill of my cap and came down the side of my face,” Smith recalled years later.

Abrams [Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Temple University Press 1998] xi / 226 pages ISBN: 1-56639-599-2 In spite of the greater popularity of football and basketball, baseball remains the sport of greatest interest to writers, artists, and historians. The same appears to be true for law professors as well. Recent years have seen the publication Spencer Waller, Neil Cohen, & Paul Finkelman's, Baseball and the American Legal Mind (1995) and G. Ed- ward White's, Creating the National Pastime: Baseball Transforms Itself, 1903-1953 (1996). Now noted labor law expert and Rutgers-Newark Law School Dean Roger Abrams has entered the field with Legal Bases: Baseball and the Law. Unlike the Waller, Cohen, Finkelman anthology of documents and White's history, Abrams does not attempt the survey the full range of intersections between the baseball industry and the legal system. In- stead, he focuses upon the history of labor-management relations.
