In this game, you should throw from underhand, so it’s a bit different than baseball. The ball is quite slow and the pitch is smaller. There are catchers and batters, too. And you can play it outdoors!

Dear Sam,
I’d like to tell you about a baseball game I saw on TV last week.
Baseball is a very popular sport in America. Everybody watches and plays baseball there. I wanted to see a real match and check if it's fun.
You don't need a lot of things to play baseball. The pitcher used a bat to hit the ball. The catcher used a big glove to catch the ball. The ball in baseball is small and white. He also wore a helmet to protect his head.
