Pesapallo Sport

Himachal This WeekThis is a fast-moving bat-and-ball sport that is quite often referred to as the national sport of Finland and has some presence in other countries including Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, Australia, and Canada’s northern Ontario. Pesapallo is a combination of traditional ball-batting team games and North American baseball. Basic idea of pesapallo is: the offense tries to score by hitting the ball successfully and running through the bases, while the defense, as in baseball, tries to put the batter (and runners) out. The most important difference between pesapallo and baseball is that the ball is pitched vertically, which makes hitting the ball, as well as controlling the power and direction of the hit, much easier. This gives the offensive game more variety, speed, and tactical aspects compared to baseball. The fielding team is forced to counter the batter’s choices with defensive schemes and anticipation.
