2023 - Official Baseball Rules - Study Guide: Marathon Ump
Britannica defines baseball as a game played with a bat, a ball, and gloves between two teams of nine players each on a field with four white base laid out in a diamond. Teams alternate positions as batters (offense) and fielders (defense), exchanging places when three members of the batting team are "put out". As batters, players try to hit the ball out of the reach of the fielding team and make a complete circuit around the bases for a "run". The team that scores the most runs in nine innings (times at bat) wins the game.

Pretty simple game. Or is it?

The many, many rules that it takes to simply "play ball" is enormous. This study guide breaks down these complex rules and will help you become a "baseball rule expert".

Whether you are an umpire and want to use this study guide like batting practice to stay sharp, a player or coach that wants to better themselves by better understanding the game, or simply a baseball nerd that wants to know as much about the game as possible - this book will have lots for you.

The study guide covers each and every rule section of the Official Baseball Rules. First test your knowledge by answering challenging multiple choice exams. Then grade yourself with the answers that are shown at the back of the book along with their detailed explanations.
