Sports[edit | edit source]

In sports like baseball and cricket, hitting is a crucial skill. The player must hit the ball with a bat with the aim of scoring runs. The technique and power behind the hit can greatly influence the outcome of the game.

Baseball[edit | edit source]

In baseball, hitting is one of the most important skills. The batter must hit the ball thrown by the pitcher with the bat. The goal is to hit the ball into the field of play, allowing the batter to run to as many bases as possible before the ball is returned.

Cricket[edit | edit source]

In cricket, hitting is also a fundamental skill. The batsman must hit the ball bowled by the bowler. The aim is to hit the ball far enough to allow the batsman to run between the wickets and score runs.

Violence[edit | edit source]
