Baseball Beer Pong, Drinking Game Rules

Category: Pong & Cup Games · Players: Two teams · You’ll need: 8 cups; ping pong balls; table; beer

Beer pong scored like baseball, the cups are the bases.

Setup: Each team lines up 4 quarter-filled cups in a straight line pointing away from the shooter: nearest = single, then double, triple, farthest = home run. Track runners on paper. Decide innings (3 is standard). One ball.

How to play:

1. Each at-bat, the batter throws up to 3 balls, one at a time.
2. Sink a cup: that's the hit, runners advance accordingly, a defender drinks and refills the cup, and the same batter starts a fresh at-bat.
3. All 3 throws miss: strikeout, one out. Three outs end the half-inning; switch sides.

Drinking: Fielders drink 1 sip per run against them; the losing team drinks the run difference at the end.

Baseball Beer Pong, Variations

• Stealing bases (the classic add-on): A runner may attempt a steal at any time by challenging a defender to a 1-cup flip-cup race, win and advance, lose and you're out.
• Home run derby: Warm up with 5 shots each at the far cup only; misses are sips.
• Wild pitch: A throw that misses the table entirely advances all runners one base.
