Ac wedyn, wrth gwrs, mae ’na wahaniaethau rhwng y gêm sy’n cael ei chwarae ym Mhrydain, sef “British baseball, sometimes called Welsh baseball, or in the areas where it is popular simply baseball” chwedl Wikipedia, a’r gêm sy’n cael ei chwarae yn yr Unol Daleithiau ac sydd wedi cael ei hallforio i rai lleoedd eraill. Ym Mhrydain ceir yr “International Baseball Board” (unig aelodau Cymru a Lloegr) sy’n rheoli gêm draddodiadol Prydain, a’r British Baseball Federation, sy’n rheoli’r gêm a fewnforiwyd. Ar wefan y gymdeithas olaf hon gallwch ddysgu llawer mwy am “baseball, slowpitch softball or fastpitch softball”.

They are different games, and rounders is far closer to what Americans call softball than it is to baseball, but yes, they do of course have many similarities. Differences include the size and material of the bats, the hardness of the ball, the way the ball is pitched (underarm in rounders, overarm in baseball), the layout of the pitch and the way the bases are marked. The scoring is different too. ________________________________ From: Mary Jones <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Friday, 2 September, 2011 11:05:58 Subject: Re: baseball Megan, dydw i ddim yn credu mai’r un ge^m ydyn nhw’n union.
