Your Simplified Guide to Softball Rules
If you’re a player who’s just getting into softball or a spectator who wants to gain more appreciation for the game, then knowing the rules in playing softball would definitely help.
It could be a headache to try to understand all the rules of softball all at the same time. Every year, there are minor changes being made to the game and it could be difficult for everyone to keep track of that. Some leagues also modify the rules depending on their requirements, which could make their rules even more different.
That’s why I’m providing you here with some of the most basic softball rules to help you get started. These are the rules that you will see applied to most, if not all of the games so you’ll be able to pick these rules out almost immediately the next time you watch a game.
Here they are.
The Players and Teams
Let’s begin with the number of players. Each team must have 9 players each to play the game.
The defensive side is composed of the pitcher, catcher, 3 basemen, 1 shortstop and 3 outfielders. The pitcher is the one who throws the pitch at the catcher who’s positioned behind the batter’s plate. Basemen are assigned to each of the bases, while the shortstop is positioned in the middle of the 2nd and 3rd bases. Finally, the outfielders are positioned in the outfield.
The offensive side is the one that hits the ball. There is a certain batting order for each team that will be followed throughout the game.
Deciding which side a team plays first is done by a toss coin at the beginning of the game.
Game Length
There are 7 innings in a game. An inning is where both teams take turns in playing offense and defense. Some rules may limit the game further into a certain time period, while others may be limited by the number of runs a team is leading.
Scoring in Softball
There are two ways a team can score in softball. One is when a batter hits a homerun – that’s when the ball is hit and goes outside the field – or when a base runner safely runs to the home plate.
Foul, Ball, Strike, Out
A foul ball is called when the ball is hit to either of the foul areas found on the right side of the 1st base and the left of the 3nd base.
When a pitch doesn’t enter the strike zone, it is called a ball. Four balls would be equal to a walk, where the hitter walks to the first base. If a base runner is on the first base during a walk, she proceeds to the 2nd base.
Meanwhile, a pitch is called a strike when it comes within the strike zone. Three strikes would result in an out.
A base runner is considered out when she is tagged with the ball before reaching the base. A batter is also considered out when the defensive team catches the ball she hit before it reaches the ground.
The offensive team is only allowed three outs. After that, the teams change sides.
This is by no means a comprehensive guide of rules used in softball as some leagues incorporate some rules of their own or modify the rules depending on their own requirements.
What I have shared with you are just some of the most basic rules in softball that will aid you in understanding the game better. With that knowledge, I hope you’ll be able to appreciate the game even further.

Who was the first to decide the touchdown in a football game is worth six points?
Not including the kick for the extra point.
anyway I was wondering since in basketball, depending on where you are at, you can score 1 pt, 2 pts, or 3 pts with each shot in the basket. In soccer, each goal is worth 1 pt. Baseball and softball, a run is worth 1pt and a homerun is worth 2pts.
So who decided in football the touchdown should be worth 6pts, not including the kick for the extra point for the touchdown.
Edit: I'm sorry, I thought a homerun was worth two points. seems that i'm wrong/
It evolved over time. The rules for football were very much in flux during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Touchdowns were worth 4 and 5 points before being increased to 6 in 1912 (a rule change by the then- new NCAA). Field goals were originally 5 points (yep, when TDs were only 4) and were eventually decreased to 3. It would've been cool if some guy had a great mathematical reason for it and came up with the points system all at once but truth of the matter is that it was tinkered with and once it got to 6 people seemed fine with the scoring system from there.
