the general rules of baseball

Well.

You hit the ball, you catch the ball, you throw the ball. When you reach a base, turn left. :))

To train: run, play catch, and find a batting cage and see if you can hit the little white thing with the big metal thing. If you’ve literally never played baseball before, you are in serious danger of getting hurt when trying to bat (and by “hurt,” I mean “broken eye socket”) if they put you into an actual game, so make sure they have helmets with face protection (either a cage or the kind Jason Heyward wears).

Are you somewhere warm, so you can practice between now and tryouts (knowing that baseball usually has tryouts in February at the latest)?

And will they even let you try out if you miss preseason conditioning? Most schools do, but you might want to check.
