Batter up! Even non-baseball fans can participate in this fun

Bible trivia game. Here's how to play.
Inning 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Team
1
Team
2
Outs:

1. Draw a baseball diamond on a dry-erase board.

2. Choose an emcee and a scorekeeper. The emcee reads the questions. The
scorekeeper keeps track of base runners, runs, and outs.
3. Divide the players into two teams.
4. Decide how many innings will be played
5. The emcee reads a question to first player on Team 1. It will be either a single,
double, triple or HR, based on difficulty.
6. If the player answers the question correctly, the scorekeeper puts an X on the
proper base. For instance, if the player answer a SINGLE correctly, the
scorekeeper draws an X on first base.
7. If the player answers incorrectly, he makes an out.
8. The next player comes to bat. If he answers correctly, the scorekeeper
advances the first base runner and adds another. Note: There are no stolen
bases. Runners only advance as far as the batter. For example, suppose there's
a runner on first base. The batter correctly answers a DOUBLE. The runner on
first advances to third base, and the batter goes to second base.
9. Play continues until Team1 has 3 outs.
10. Team 2 goes to bat for the bottom of the first inning.
11. The team with the most runs when the game ends is the winner.
