baseball team

Nine on field

A baseball team is a group of players organized to compete in the sport of baseball, typically nine players on the field at a time.

The term refers both to the roster of players and to the franchise or organization itself: The Yankees are my favorite baseball team.

In casual use, any group playing baseball together qualifies: We got enough people for a baseball team.
