10. Baseball / Softball - In baseball, a home run (abbreviated HR) is scored when the ball is hit in such a
way that the batter is able to circle the bases and reach home safely in one play without any errors being
committed by the defensive team in the process. In modern baseball, the feat is typically achieved by
hitting the ball over the outfield fence between the foul poles (or making contact with either foul pole)
without first touching the ground, resulting in an automatic home run. There is also the "inside-the-park"
home run where the batter reaches home safely while the baseball is in play on the field. A home run
with a high exit velocity and good launch angle is sometimes called a "no-doubter," because it leaves no
doubt that it is going to leave the park when it leaves the bat.
