        -  Old guys (35 and over) against Young Guys (under 35)

        -  5 innings

        -  4 batters and a pitcher

        -  Inning break downs as follows;

     

               1st Inning -   Every batter gets 5 fair ball hits to see how many HRs they can hit

                                     Teams pitch to their own and pitchers can't be hitters - at bats end only with an out

                                     i.e., as long as a batter keeps hitting HRs, they keep batting

                                    All fair balls not HRs are outs

 

               2nd Inning -  With 4 defenders - regular batting order - bat until 3 outs, watched strike is automatic K

                                     Teams pitch to their own and pitchers can't be hitters

                                     Balls beyond baseline in the air are singles, rolling into the fence are doubles,

                                     Off the fence in the air are triples, over the fence HRs, grounders are outs

                                     Base runners but NO base running

   

               3rd Inning -  1 pitch inning - regular batting order - bat until 5 outs

                                     Pitch to the opponent - All watched balls are walks, watched strikes are K's

                                     All fair balls not HRs are outs, foul balls - unless caught, no out, move to next batter

 

               4th Inning -   Normal batting rules - regular batting order - bat until 3 outs

                                     Pitch to the opponent - All fair balls not HRs are outs

                      

               5th Inning -   1 pitch inning - regular batting order - Each batter lives until they make an out

                                     Pitch to your own and pitchers can't be hitters

                                     Each HR counts for 2 runs

                                     All pitches not hit for HRs are outs
