Answer:
1. THE ROLE OF THE UMPIRE
– “a person who rules on the plays in a game and who sees that the rules are not broken.” – “a person chosen to settle a dispute; arbiter, especially one whose decisions are binding on both or all parties to the dispute.”
2.In baseball, the pitcher is the player who throws the baseball from the pitcher's mound toward the catcher to begin each play, with the goal of retiring a batter, who attempts to either make contact with the pitched ball or draw a walk.
3.A batter or hitter is a person whose turn it is to face the pitcher. The three main goals of batters are to become a baserunner, to drive runners home or to advance runners along the bases for others to drive home, but the techniques and strategies they use to do so vary.
4. The main aim of a fielder is twofold. One of the fielder's roles is to minimise or stop the runs of the opposition batsmen. This is best done by gathering the ball after it has been hit, and returning the ball to the wicket keeper as quickly as possible, so as to prevent runs from being scored.
