A home run, or “home run,” is a baseball term. In baseball, a home run is a hit in which the batter can circle all the bases for a week. The batter who hits the baseball with the bat is called the batter. When he hits the ball thrown from the opposite side, he immediately throws down the bat and starts at Run infield, in the order of first base, second base, third base and then home plate. When they reach the home plate, they will get a point, and in the process of running, the players on each base can also run to the home plate, and they will also get a point when they reach the home plate. If the batter hits the ball far enough, or the opponent does not return the ball in time, the batter has enough time to run to the home plate, which is called a home run.
Home Run Terminology Introduction
Players on an offensive baseball team must pass four bases in order to score, and in other cases, after a batter becomes a runner, he must advance with the help of other teammates to score. But if you hit a home run, the score on the scoreboard increases immediately, so home runs have always been the most talked about part of baseball, and the greatest hitters usually hit home runs well.
In Taiwan, the home run is also known as “Red Don’t Let”, which is a Japanese baseball term transliterated into Chinese. The Japanese is a transliteration of the English term “Home Run”.
Classification of home runs
In addition to the usual home run, certain game situations have their own names. These types of home runs are special, partly because they don’t happen very often, and because they bring a climax to the game.
1. Yangchun home run
A home run hit when there is no one on the base.Yang Chun homer scored 1 run
2. Infield home run
The most typical home run is to hit the ball outside the backmost home run wall in the outfield, and the ball goes out of bounds. However, there are always a few exceptions. Basically, as long as the batter goes around all the bases in one fell swoop and runs back to home plate before the fielder has time to pass the ball back, it counts as a home run, without the opponent making a mistake. This is called a home run, and generally requires the batter to be a fast-footed player, and the fielder is either not handling the ball properly in some way, or the ball is bouncing irregularly or the ball is difficult to play because of the characteristics of the field. deal with. And this processing error cannot be recorded as a turnover, otherwise the batter will not be able to get a home run record.
3. Grand Slam
A grand slam home run refers to a home run hit by a batter when the bases are full (that is, there are runners on the first, second, and third bases), and you can score 4 points in one go. In-court grand slams need to have both characteristics, which is very rare. MLB’s last in-field major was hit on October 3, 1999 by Randy Winn of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. In addition, the Grand Slam can also be called “Golden Home Run” and “Slam Home Run”.
4. Goodbye Home Run
Goodbye home runs, coined by famed finisher Dennis Eckersley to refer to home runs that immediately end a game. It is so named because after a point is scored, the player can leave the field. To end the game, the backcourt team must hit a leading homer in the second half of the final inning.
