The two different sections of a baseball playing field are called the infield and the outfield.
- The infield is the area that includes the bases, home plate, and the pitcher's mound, forming a diamond shape. It is typically made up of dirt and grass and is where most of the defensive players are positioned
- The outfield is the grassy area beyond the infield, extending to the boundary fence or wall. It covers the larger area of the field where outfielders play
