home run

Home run
In
baseball, a home run is a
hit in which the
batter is able to circle all the bases, ending at home plate and scoring a
run himself (along with a run scored by each
runner who was already on base), with no
errors by the defensive team on the play which result in the batter advancing for extra bases. Today, 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.
