a baseball is smaller and harder than a softball
a softball has a circumfrence of 12" is easier to hit and pitched underhand, both are of similar construction, cork center, cloth/string windings and a leather stitched cover

boobs (softball bigger)
bat size (baseball bigger),
base distance (baseball bigger),
field size (baseball bigger),
ball size (softball bigger),
pitching style (softball underhand-baseball overhand),
speed and number of pitches (softball players throw more pitches- less volocity)
you cant lead off in softball-you can in baseball,
basically thats it.
and they bunt a lot more- ALOT more. so third base plays like 3rd pitcher
