However, this difficulty is not too serious if it is realized that a surveying team can establish a true north base line with a few days' work.

`` By winning against Bradley, Kentucky and Notre Dame on those teams' home courts, they showed that the home court advantage can be overcome anywhere and that it doesn't take a super team to do it ''.

This time the team used the expedition to raise awareness about the global environmental importance of the Antarctic region and to show that biofuel can be a viable and environmentally friendly option.

In other armies an ' authorised observer ' ( for example, artillery observation team or other target acquisition element ) can order fire units to engage.

In the latter case a battery observation team can order fire to their own battery and may be authorised to order fire to their own battalion and sometimes to many battalions.

The team will use the data obtained to create innovative computer simulations that can be used to model how sediment flows through these channels.

Another risk taken by the defensive team in issuing a base on balls is that since intentional balls must be pitched in a legal manner, they can legally become wild pitches or passed balls.

Likewise, a baserunner can attempt to steal a base, or the batter can choose to swing at an intentional ball ; however, these rarely occur since taking these risks is rarely more beneficial to the offensive team than allowing the walk.

Noted statistician Bill James has argued that unless a player can steal a high percentage of the time, then the stolen base is not useful, and can even be detrimental to a team.

A player on the batting team can stop at any of the bases and later advance via a teammate's hit or other means.

The ball can be advanced on the court by bouncing it while walking or running ( dribbling ) or throwing ( passing ) it to a team mate.

Particularly in team competition there can be a large number of bowls on the green towards the conclusion of the end, and this gives rise to complex tactics.

The team with the closest ball to the jack is the only team that can score points in any frame.

A team can bring at the most four substitutes to the game and one of these is likely to be an extra goalkeeper.

Following ( or in lieu of ) a hospital admission, support services available can include drop-in centers, visits from members of a community mental health team or Assertive Community Treatment team, supported employment and patient-led support groups, intensive outpatient programs.

Both the team and its fans ( in the poem, about 5, 000 attended the game ) believe they can win " if only " they could somehow get " Mighty Casey " ( Mudville's star player ) up to bat.

Time trials can be performed as a team or as a single rider.

( In the NFL overtime is decided by a 15-minute sudden-death quarter, and regular season games can still end in a tie if neither team scores.

Teams can also go for " the two-point conversion " which is when a team will line up at the three yard line and try to score.

Test users can also provide feedback from a targeted audience: a software development team creating a customer relationship management software system for higher education can have a user with a similar profile explore the technology, offering opportunities to cater the further development of the system.

While women had always attended ball games in small numbers ( it was the part of a `` dead game sport '' in the early years of the twentieth century to be taken out to the ball park and to root, root, root for the home team ), they had often sat in patient martyrdom, unable even to read the scoreboard, which sometimes seemed to indicate that one team led another by a score of three hundred and eighty to one hundred and fifty-one.

-- The Orioles tonight retained the distinction of being the only winless team among the eighteen Major-League clubs as they dropped their sixth straight spring exhibition decision, this one to the Kansas City Athletics by a score of 5 to 3.

The runner who reached on the error comes around to score, and his run is unearned to both the prior pitcher and the team.

They do carry an inherent risk, however, as they give the offensive team another runner on base, without any effort on their part, who could potentially score a run.

A team playing with this style emphasizes doing little things ( including risky running plays like base-stealing ) to advance runners and score runs, often relying on pitching and defense to keep games close.

The Baltimore Orioles of the 1970s, led by manager Earl Weaver, were an example of such a " slugging " team that aspired to score most of its runs via home runs.

Basketball is a team sport, the objective being to shoot a ball through a basket horizontally positioned to score points while following a set of rules.

* a team ( pair, triple or four ) has the higher score after a specified number of ends.

On June 30, 2009, the Orioles rallied to score 10 runs against Boston Red Sox after facing a 10 – 1 deficit in the 7th inning, winning the game by 11 – 10, setting a Major League Baseball record for the largest comeback by a last-place team over a first-place team.

Lara returned to the team for the second Test ( and scored a huge first innings score of 196 ), but in the process lost his captaincy indefinitely to the newly-appointed Shivnarine Chanderpaul.

Scoring occurs after all pieces ( generally 12 per player or team ) have been played, and is differential: i. e., the player or team with higher score is awarded the difference between the higher and lower scores for the round, thus only one team or player each round gains points.

The team finished 11-1 in 1953, and narrowly lost the championship game to the Lions by a score of 17-16 on a 33-yard Bobby Layne touchdown pass to Jim Doran with just over two minutes left.

The team scored 1, 009 runs, becoming the first ( and to date only ) team since the 1950 Boston Red Sox to score more than 1, 000 runs in a season.

* The defensive team may score two points on a point-after touchdown attempt by returning a blocked kick, fumble, or interception into the opposition's end zone.

This is different from a Safety ( see above ) in that team scored against receives possession of the ball after the score.

The other team then scrimmages the ball at the same 35-yard line and has the same opportunity to score.

Rabb, the former Louisiana State field general, came off the bench for his debut with the Bills Sunday and directed his new team to a 22-12 upset victory over the Houston Oilers, defending league champions.

But when tiny, 145-pound Albert Gregory Pearson of the Los Angeles Angels, who once caught three straight fly balls in center field because, as a teammate explained, `` the other team thought no one was out there '', hits seven home runs in four months ( three more than his total in 1958, 1959, and 1960 ), his achievement borders on the ridiculous.

The NLCS and ALCS, since the expansion to best-of-seven, are always played in a 2 – 3 – 2 format: games 1, 2, 6 and 7 are played in the stadium of the team that has home field advantage, and Games 3, 4 and 5 are played in the stadium of the team that does not.

Home field advantage is given to the team that has the better record, with the exception that the team that made the postseason as the Wild Card team cannot get home field advantage.

The ALCS and NLCS, since the expansion to best-of-seven, are always played in a 2 – 3 – 2 format: Games 1, 2, 6, and 7 are played in the stadium of the team that has home field advantage, and Games 3, 4, and 5 are played in the stadium of the team that does not.

Since 1998, home field advantage has been given to the team that has the better regular season record, unless that team happens to be the Wild Card team.

In that case, the other team gets home field advantage, because by rule the Wild Card team is never allowed home field advantage in a Division Series or LCS.

In the event that both teams have identical records in the regular season, home field advantage goes to the team that has the winning head-to-head record.

Home field advantage goes to the team with the better regular season record, except for the wild card team, which never receives the home field advantage.
