"Baseball Bores Me" by Sam Hughes
Baseball is rather surprisingly known as "America's Favorite Pastime." It is a rather boring sport played between two teams of nine players. As silliness would have it, the players use a wooden or metal bat to hit a ball around a diamond-shaped playing field. At each of the points of the diamond is a marker, called a base. Home base is where the batter stands. Players from the opposing team are positioned at the other bases: first, second, and third. A batter scores a run by hitting the ball and running around the bases before members of the other team can tag him with the ball. The batter must run counter-clockwise around all of the bases and back to home to get a point. This might sound exciting, but it's not. Which of the following, if included in a student's paper, would not be an example of plagiarism? In the game of baseball, which is rather boring, the batter stands on home base (Hughes 1). Baseball is rather surprisingly known as "America's Favorite Pastime." Baseball is "a rather boring sport played between two teams of nine players" (Hughes 1). All of these are plagiarism.
