In pesäpallo, all runners are required to, well, run when the bases are loaded. Does the same apply to baseball? -- Kizor 14:34, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Yes, it does. ςפקι Д Иτς ☺ ☻ 03:31, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
This page should be moved and renamed to Pesäpallo. The game is called Pesäpallo in English. The term "Finnish Baseball" is essentially misleading. Sorsanmetsastaja 14:35, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Moved to Pesäpallo because of three support votes and no oppose votes. JIP | Talk 14:09, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
I don't know the terminology used in English-speaking countries, but the text would flow much better if "joker" was renamed to "wild card player" or similar. -- 91.156.60.73 ( talk) 10:09, 2 November 2011 (UTC)
Whoever wrote this apparently doesn't know what "river" means: A home run is scored when the batter reaches third base before the ball (the ball is in play even if it has bounced to the river near the field). -- Espoo ( talk) 14:11, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
One paragraph claims "When a batter makes a fair hit, unless it is the third strike, the batter must try to advance safely to the first base." But other say the exact opposite, that "a fair hit does not require the batter to reach base; all three strikes can be used before the batter must reach first base."
Since the latter is given twice, I have assumed the former is in error, and have removed it. But I would like someone who actually knows the sport to confirm. — trlkly 16:15, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
Is this in fact a Finnish word or combination thereof, or an adaptation of English "baseball" to Finnish phonology, akin to beisbol in Latin American Spanish? Solicitr ( talk) 21:25, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
It seems that the ball is closer to the size of a tennis ball and not a soccer ball or hand ball. Is 8 inches/22 cm correct, or should it be 8 cm? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.27.182.119 ( talk) 08:14, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
This article is very interesting but definitely needs some work. There are a lot of uncited sections and paragraphs. Additionally, it could really use a "History" section. Tad Lincoln ( talk) 15:26, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
