Duration: Each game lasts 5 - 7 Innings. Decide how many innings you want to play before the game starts.
Amount of Players: There is no set amount of players that you need to play Kore Ball or Wiffle Ball. You need enough to play but there is never too many. It is fun with lots of people
Outs: We play peg outs as well as normal outs, this means that you can throw it at the runner and if it hits them they are out. This makes it more fun and exciting. Usually we play the defense only has to get 2 outs in order to switch. We found that this helps the game move more quickly and keep everyone on their toes. If you want to play 3 outs, you totally can.
Pitching: You can play pitch to your own team. Remember, this is an offensive game. Give your players the opportunity to hit it as far as they can. It also works if the other team pitches but remember you aren't trying to strike them out, you are just trying to lob it in the strike zone.
Bunting/Stealing: There is no bunting or stealing
Run Rule: There is no run rule, we have seen teams come back from 15 - 0
Walks/Bean: There are no walks, if you bean them then the count can reset. This only works if you aren't pitching to your own team. If you are pitching to your own team you can't walk them but you can strike them out.
Umpires: There are no empires, everyone should be honest and admit it when they are out. You can always play with them if you want though.
Other Rules: The rest of the rules are just like normal baseball. We encourage you to find ways to make it more fun and creative. The Kore Baseball allows everyone to have fun playing baseball and it makes the game much more offensively focused. Baseball is so much more fun when you aren't stuck in the outfield watching your pitcher walk everyone.
