Abstract: The invention is an improved baseball game which reduces the time of play by having the participants start each at bat with two balls and two strikes, and which replaces the runs scored system of scoring with a scoring system that awards points for particular baseball plays and results. By simultaneously modifying the baseball scoring system to a system that awards points for particular plays, particular results and sportsmanship, the invention will provide each player with a greater opportunity to influence the outcome of a game. Another object and advantage of the point system is that by rewarding particular baseball play, a greater emphasis will be placed on executing fundamental baseball skills. In making both these changes simultaneously as one package, the invention has the object and advantage of creating a new and improved version of the traditional baseball game.
