As a baseball expert, I can tell you that the decision of who gets to bat first in a game of baseball is determined by the visiting team's batting order, which is submitted to the home team before the game begins. The visiting team is the team that is not hosting the game at their home field. The batting order lists the sequence in which the team's players will come to bat during the game. Once the visiting team's batting order is known, the home team can strategize their defensive play accordingly.

Here's a step-by-step breakdown of how it works:


1. The visiting team manager creates a batting order that lists the players who will bat in a specific sequence.
2. This batting order is then submitted to the home team before the game starts.
3. The game begins with the first batter in the visiting team's batting order stepping up to the plate.
4. After the visiting team has batted, the home team then takes their turn to bat, starting with their first batter.

Baseball is a game played by two teams, with each team having nine innings in which they attempt to score runs. The home team always bats second (the "bottom" of the inning) and the visiting team always bats in the "top" of the inning.read more >>
