The sport of baseball has been called the national pastime of the United States. Each spring, millions of fans look forward to the beginning of a new baseball season. Baseball is also popular in many Latin American and Asian countries, especially Japan. The game is played with a bat and a small ball. Two teams compete against each other. The goal is to score the most points, which are called runs.

The two teams in a baseball game take turns playing offense and defense. The offensive team, also called the team at bat, tries to score runs. It does this by advancing its players around the bases. The other team tries to stop it from scoring.

It was once believed baseball had been invented in 1839 in Cooperstown, New York. Now, though, most historians agree that baseball came from an English game called “rounders” that children played in the 1700s.
