(Redirected from Home Plate) In baseball, the home plate is the
base over which an offensive player bats, and to which he must
return after touching all three bases in order to score a run.
The plate is pentagonal, unlike the other three bases, which are
square. - The Official Site of Major League Baseball - Minor
