Strikeout

Urban one-on-one baseball game normally played on schoolgrounds where an agreed upon strike zone is drawn on the side of a building facing an open expanse. The batter gets three outs if he strikes out three times (since there are no fielders). Score is kept as follows; a hit is recorded as a ball hit in playthat does not go foul or past an agreed upon "out- of -the park". A ball hit in the air past a designated outer landmark is considered a homerun and clears the bases. Normally played with a tennis ball and is a fast pitched game that emphasizes agressive hitting and pitching. Played in Oakland school yards in the 80'- perhaps elsewhere

Aye, we don't have enough for a full game, we'll play a rotating strikeout game against that protable over there.
