THE SCORING OF RUNS.
RULE 36. One Run shall be scored every time a Base Runner, after having
legally touched the first three bases, shall touch the Home Base before
three men are put out. If the third man is forced out, or is put out
before reaching First Base, a run shall not be scored.
THE BATTING RULES.
RULE 37. A Fair Hit is a ball batted by the batsman, standing in his
position, that first touches the ground, the First Base, the Third Base,
any part of the person of a player, Umpire, or any other object that is in
front of or on either of the Foul Lines, or batted directly to the ground
by the Batsman, standing in his position, that (whether it first touches
Foul or Fair Ground) bounds or rolls within the Foul Lines, between Home
and First, or Home and Third Bases, without interference by a player.
RULE 38. A Foul Hit is a ball batted by the Batsman, standing in his
position, that first touches the ground, any part of the person of a
player, or any other object that is behind either of the Foul Lines, or
that strikes the person of such Batsman, while standing in his position,
or batted directly to the ground by the Batsman, standing in his position,
that (whether it first touches Foul or Fair Ground) bounds or rolls
outside the Foul Lines, between Home and First or Home and Third Bases,
without interference by a player.
