Stoopball - Curbball

	Whip it, whip it good

Some blocks use a stoopball variation that includes baserunning. Instead of determining the type of hit by distance or the number of bounces, you have to "run it out." These games require a wide field, and are usually played off the steps of a park building, warehouse, or school adjoined by a play area. Curbball, the most common variation, is played in parks or streets.
