> Is there any guide for us non-americans to help us gain enough grasp on the rules to, at least, understand the dynamics of the game?
If you've already read "no matter how many" and don't get it? Then no, you probably can't be helped.
It's not very different conceptually from cricket. One player throws the ball hard, another tries to hit it far away with a bat. If you hit it far enough, you get to run; if you run far enough before the other team throw the ball back, you might score some points. If you keep failing to hit the ball, you will (probabilistically) soon be out. If the other team catches the ball, you're out. If enough players are out, the teams swap sides and the other team gets to try hitting the ball.
The rest is details. You can find them in any of the videos or articles you've already failed to comprehend without this primer.
I’ll never understand commenters who ask strangers to explain how some of the top sports in the world work from other random commenters rather than looking up a basic rules video or something like that.
