situated between home plate and second
base, with the exact distance varying by
league regulations.

start their delivery, ensuring consistent
distance, balance, and mechanics while
enforcing rules and alignment toward
home plate.

especially home runs, at the outfield
corners.
#5 SCOREBOARDS
Scoreboards display key
game information such as
the score, inning, count,
outs, and more, helping
players, coaches, and fans
follow the game's progress.
