What does 'on base' also known as?

  1. Half base

  2. Off base

  3. Full base

  4. Base coat

The correct answer is: Full base

The term 'on base' is commonly used in baseball or softball to describe when a player has successfully reached one of the designated bases on the field. This can also be referred to as 'getting on base'. The other options, while they may seem similar, do not accurately reflect the meaning of the term 'on base'. "Half base" or "off base" do not accurately describe reaching a designated base, while "base coat" is a term used in painting and has no relation to the sport.
