There are nine players out on the field at one time in fastpitch softball and 10 players in slow-pitch softball. Although the pitcher and catcher have the ball the most, each person has a specific job. In the infield there is the pitcher, catcher, first baseman, second baseman, shortstop, and third baseman.
Positions. Two teams compete in each softball game. Nine players man the field, while nine batters hit in a predetermined order for each team, know as the batting order or lineup. The players who have defensive positions, often called fielders, are the same ones that bat during the other half of the inning.
