Can you help me with these true and falses of baseball?
--

A complete inning is 5 outs (how many are there?)

If a ball that has just been hit, hits a runner during a play, the runner is ruled out.

A double play consists of getting three players out in a row (using one pitch)

In a typical game there are nine defensive positions on the field

A base runner being forced out at a base is the same situation as a runner being tagged out.

1. False. A complete inning is 3 outs.
2. True. Unless it is a thrown ball, which results in the runner not being out.
3. False. That would be the extremely-rare triple play. A double play is where you get two people out on a single pitch.
4. True. In a game, there is the pitcher, the catcher, the 1st baseman, the 2nd baseman, the 3rd baseman, the shortstop, the left fielder, the right fielder, and the center fielder.
5. False. In order for a baserunner to be forced out, there must be someone behind him, whereas you can tag a runner out whenever he is off of the base.

1 - False - 6 outs in a complete inning
2 - False - This is a trick question. If a batted ball hits a runner in fair territory after the ball has passed an infielder or been touched by an infielder, the runner is safe and the ball is dead. Runners may not advance nor score unless forced to advance - MLB Rule 7.08f
3 - False - A double play consists of 2 outs and does not require a pitch to be thrown (double pickoff)
4 - True
5 - False

1: false
A completely inning is 6 outs, half an inning is 3
2: that is true, if the runner is hit by a batted ball he is out
3: false
A double play is getting two people out
4: true in the fact that they are 9 defensive positions, false because that's the rule, it isn't typical
5: false and true
false: a running being tagged out is off the base, or hasn't reached his base yet. A runner being forced out means the defenseive player stepped on the bag and the runner wasn't there yet.
true: they are both outs

1.) A complete inning is 3 outs per team (6 all together).

2.) I'm not 100% sure about this question. I've seen players running bases that get hit accidentally, and not get called out.

3.) A double play consists of getting "two" players out.

4.) Yes, 9 defensive positions (including the pitcher)

5.) A force out is not the same as a player getting tagged out.

3 outs in an inning. The baserunner who is hit by a batted ball is out. A double play consists of tow players being out on the same play. Yes there are p position players on the field. Either way the runner is out depending if the force is in play or not.
