Abstract: A method for directional baseball hitting may include pitching, swinging, determining whether the swing resulted in a ball meeting hit requirements and a round requirement for a round and awarding a point if the swing was determined to result in the ball meeting the hit requirements and the round requirement for the round, summing the points awarded to a hitter to obtain a round hitter point total, and summing the round hitter point totals for the hitters of a team for the round to obtain a team round point total. A method for setting up a baseball field for directional baseball hitting may include using markers to set up first baseman, second baseman, shortstop, and third baseman areas of a baseball field. The method may further include using markers to set up left field, right field, and center field portions of an outfield of the baseball field.
