Knotting Baseball

Same teams as baseball, but no bat or ball. The pitcher and batter each have a piece of rope. The pitcher calls the name of the knot and throws his rope to anyone in the field. If a batter reaches first with the knot tied correctly, he is safe. If knot tied (correctly) by the fielder, reaches first before batter, he is out. If the batter cannot tie knot called, he is out. If the fielder cannot tie knot called, the batting side scores one run whatever else happens. Fielders can then return ropes to second, third, or home to "force" base runners. Make sure the pitcher throws the rope to all fielders and not too frequently to first base
