The team sport of beep baseball is based on baseball. Two teams take turns playing in the field and batting. To bat, some people use a T-stand to hold the beep baseball and others use a pitcher. The pitcher is sighted. The beep baseball is like a large softball, and has a plastic pin in it. When the pin is pulled out, the ball beeps. Everyone stays quiet at a beep baseball game so players can hear the ball.
There are two bases in beep baseball. One base is to the right of home plate (the batting spot) and one is to the left. Each base is a soft column with a speaker inside it. When turned on, the base makes a loud buzzing sound. The batter hits the beep baseball, listens for a base's buzzing sound, and runs to it. The batter never knows which base the base operator will pick to turn on. If the runner gets to the base before the fielders find the ball and pick it up, a run is scored.
Fielders have certain areas in which to stand and each area has a number. When the batter hits the ball, a sighted spotter yells out a number and the person assigned to that area moves around to find the ball. The other fielders stay still so that there are no collisions between fielders. The fielder trying to find the ball listens and feels for it on the ground and holds it up when he or she finds it.
