I joined my department’s softball team because they needed more women. I have never played any kind of sport in my life, and have never even watched a baseball game on TV.

1. Is there anything to it aside from hitting the ball and running around the bases?
2. Do I need to bring anything? Like a glove?
3. What position should I request to minimize embarrassing myself?
4. Do you have any other advice?
