Wall Street Journal Gives 22 Wiffle Ball Rules for Fourth of July Weekend

Just in case fireworks and BBQ's aren't enough to keep you happy this Fourth of July, there's always a good old game of backyard Wiffle ball. With rules, of course.

The Wall Street Journal's Jason Gay comprised a list of 22 rules of backyard Wiffle ball, which range from keeping a spare Wiffle ball all the way to breaking a window.

Here are just a couple of the notable rules to remember when you take the Wiffle ball diamond this July Fourth weekend

10. To that point: no high-speed pitching! Everyone should be able to hit. You are in the backyard with a Michelob in your hand, and you do not care about your earned-run average, Mr. Halladay!

12. If someone shows up to the game in eye black and a VARITEK or POSADA jersey—pat them on the head, point them to the driveway and call a cab and then the police.

15. Look at your team. Look at Mom, Dad, Grandpa, Grandma. Look at Sarah, your niece in art school. Look at Ralph, your second cousin who sells bugs on the Internet. Congratulations, you're in better financial shape than the Los Angeles Dodgers.
