Create-A-Game

So, tonight I had a couple of peanuts that love to play anything that involves sports! So, tonight we invented our own game of Tennis/Baseball!


You need:

- Baseball gloves
- Tennis Rackets
- Tennis balls (Yes, more than one, you never know when you'll lose it!)
- A wild imagination!

Rules:
1. All players must agree to the rules
2. There must be a batter, a pitcher and a catcher (optional)
3. The batter must swing a tennis racket
4. The pitcher must throw the tennis ball
5. When the pitcher throws the ball, all playing must come to an agreement if the pitch was a ball, or a strike. At three strikes, that player is out and the game resumes. When there is only three people playing, the batter will play as multiple players on his 'team.' If he hits the ball and it is 'good', the player runs to first, second, third or home as he sees fit.
6. When the batter reaches the designated base, all players agree that he is 'there' and he returns home to hit the next thrown ball.
7. When the batter has reached either three outs with his own body, or with ghost players; or three points, the batter and the pitcher switch places.
8. The player who reaches 18 points first, wins the game!

So, either you try our game (hopefully its not as confusing as it really seems) or you try your own! Either way the kids will ask for you by name and you'll be back in their house and the best babysitter ever!
