The playing field

• A baseball field is made up of the infield, the
  outfield, and foul territory. Two foul lines run
  from home plate through first and third bases to
  create a 90 degree arc.
• The infield is the inner part of the arc. A base
  is placed on each corner of the infield, 90 feet
  apart, to form the diamond.
• The outfield is the outer part of the baseball
  field. It is formed by the two foul lines
  extending to an outfield fence.
