Dart Game: Baseball

Players: Two or more

Objective: To score the most runs in the course of nine innings

Rules: The games consists of nine rounds, or innings. The goal of each inning is to hit the number that corresponds to that inning. Thus 1s are the target in the first inning, 2s in the second, and so on. Hitting the single of the target number counts as one run, the double as two, and the triple as three.

This is not multiplied by the number of the inning. If, in the fifth inning, a player hits a single 5, a single 5, and a 4, the player gets two runs. The player with the most points after the ninth inning wins. If there is a tie, play continues into extra innings. In the tenth inning, players aim for the 10, and so on.

Variations: In a seventh inning stretch variation, if a player does not hit any 7s in the seventh inning, his run total is cut in half.

In another variation, if all three darts in one round score the player runs, the player gets another set of three throws at the same number, adding those points to the earlier total. This continues until the player misses the target number with at least one dart.
