and I like illustrations. I’m immediately comforted by this sentence—“For those new to the game, the rules can seem confusing and complicated”—which makes me feel like I’m not alone.

There are nine players. A bunch of infielders “protect the bases,” according to WikiHow, by planting themselves at first, second, and third base. They are “basemen.” Then there’s a shortstop who moves around and tries to catch the ball when it’s up in the air. The “outfield” players basically take different positions outside of the diamond field and try to catch balls in the air as well as those that fall to the ground.

Now that I understand at least the basics of baseball , why did the Nationals win? Besides the fact that they scored more runs. Well, it took seven games to get there, so it wasn’t easy. I assume they won because they were better than the other teams, and because last I heard, Derek Jeter no longer plays for the New York Yankees. It appears that it alsoOh, the score. The Nationals won 6-2 against the Astros, and it was on the other team’s field.
