Take me out to the ball game with Crabtree's book Baseball in Action. Children will learn the rules and skills involved in playing. Lively, full-color photographs help demonstrate such basics as pitching, fouling, and bunting. Necessary equipment and safety precautions are also covered along with: - the layout of a baseball diamond and player positions - catching and throwing techniques - when to run and when to stay put - different variations of baseball from slow pitch to cricket
