2 Pitch Baseball
- All in groups of 4-5
  - One bat and one ball/field
- Set up 4 cones to make 4 bases
- One player from the batting team pitches 2 pitches to their teammate
  - Batter MUST hit one of the 2 pitches, or they are out
  - When they hit the ball, they run the bases
    - Every base they reach before they are put out is a point
    - If they get home and still are not out, keep running!
- Fielding team has to get ball and all stand in a straight line behind the player that got the ball
  - They have to pass the ball over &endash;under-over-under… until the ball gets to the end of the line
  - They then call "OUT!"
- Switch after everyone on the batting team has had a turn
- Alternate teams every 5-7 minutes
