About Baseball Rules Guide

Baseball Rules Guide explains baseball rules and numbers in plain English, for players, parents and the volunteers who run the games. Each rules page starts with the short answer, names the rule it follows and says when we last checked it.

Who writes it

Baseball Rules Guide is written by Julien Levadoux and published by Paris Supply Group LLC. We are independent: no governing body, league or brand reviews or approves what we publish.

How it is paid for

The site is free and supported by advertising. Ads never sit inside a calculator or between a question and its answer, and no advertiser decides what a page says.
