Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Is it a home run when the ball bounces into the outfield, and then bounces over the fence?

Answer: No

If the ball goes right over the fence then it's a home run. If it bounces then you would only get 2 bases.
2. How many balls do you need to get a walk?

Answer: 4

4 balls = a walk and 3 strikes = a strike-out.
3. If the batter gets hit by a pitch, what happens?

Answer: They are awarded first base without the threat of being put-out

They get to automatically go to first base (unless the batter swings and it's a strike).
4. When the ball is fouled (and is not caught), do the runners get to return to their base freely?

Answer: yes

Nothing around the bases can happen on a foul.
If the ball is caught it is live; and the runners can be picked off.
5. When there is a walk and there is someone on first, what happens?

Answer: the runner on first goes to 2nd

It is the same when there is runners on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, everyone would advance a base and the person on 3rd would go home.
6. In a baseball season, you are only allowed to play 25 games altogether?

Answer: False

There is no limit on how many games you play in the season.
7. How many bases are there in a baseball infield?

Answer: 4

First base, second base, third base, and home base/home plate.
8. Not including the battery, how many players belong to the infield?

Answer: 4

1st baseman, 2nd baseman, 3rd baseman, and shortstop. The pitcher and catcher are referred to as the battery.
9. What bases are you allowed to run through, without someone being able to tag you?

Answer: first and home

10. When the batter runs all the bases back to home in one at-bat with no errors, what is the hit called?
