2
A batter hits or throws the ball into the field and runs toward the base markers.
3
Fielders scoop up the ball and try to hit a running player below the shoulders with a thrown ball to burn them out.

A runner who reaches a base safely may stay there until it is safe to sprint for home.

After a set number of outs the teams swap roles, and the team that scored more home runs wins.
