In baseball, a force is a situation when a baserunner is compelled (or forced) to vacate his time-of-pitch base—and thus try to advance to the next base—because the batter became a runner. A runner at first base is always forced to attempt to advance to second base when the batter becomes a runner. Runners at second or third base are forced only when all bases preceding their time-of-pitch base are occupied by other baserunners and the batter becomes a runner.
A forced runner's force base is the next base beyond his time-of-pitch base. Any attempt by fielders to put a forced runner out is called a force play. Think of forced runners as bumper cars. If with a runner on first, the batter hits a ground ball, the batter must run to first, and since two runners are not allowed to stay on one base at one time, the runner who was on first to begin with is now bumper-carred by the advancing batter over to second. If there already was a runner on second as well, that runner is now bumper-carred over to third, and so on. If a runner is bumper-carred over to the next base by the advancing batter or by another runner who was bumper-carred by the advancing batter, then that runner is considered to have been forced to advance to the next base. If, however, with a runner on third, for example, the batter hits a ground ball, the batter must run to first, but the runner on third, not having been bumper-carred by the batter, is not forced to advance and can stay where he is if he elects to.
An military airbase (sometimes referred to as a military airfield, military airport, air force station, air force base or short airbase) is an aerodrome used by a military force for the operation of military aircraft.
Everyone's leaving The house is in mess You and your magic friend Chose to confront me folding the air into a dark affair We need an air force To gather the pieces, the love and the fear I made your skin crawl on this night Oh, my love Lock up the doors There's no easing the pain Losing a life of games Brought to impostures and comfort in death You walk alone, my friend We need an air force To gather the pieces, the love and the fear I made your skin crawl on this night Oh, my love Take off these sad clothes I need you to feel my despair Breaking the atmosphere All of your talk of the dead will not stop Breathe me like toxic love We need an air force To empty the streets with their naked machines You made my skin crawl on this night Oh, my love We won't be air borne Caught with the dust and the salt on the floor We need an air force in this life
