Additional Information

Sponsored by the Orange City Lions Club and the Orange City Fareway. Bring a lawn chair and watch this amazing sport for the blind! The Orange City All Stars and Orange City Fareway will try to play this adapted version of baseball blindfolded. This sport is played on an open grass field. There are only two bases in a beep baseball game, and they buzz. The object of the game is to hit the beeping 16" softball (while blindfolded), then make it down to 1 of the 2 buzzing bases before the fielder retrieves the ball. If successful, that's a run. If the fielder retrieves the ball before the runner makes it to one of the bases, they are out. The batter gets 5 chances to hit the ball. There are 3 outs per half inning. There are 6 innings in a game.
