Cricket ruins my softball

Cricket ruined my game today :( .

In cricket, we are so used to place and hit the ball over the in-field to score more and quicker runs. I was trying to do the same thing today in my softball game. But, I did not do that purposefuly, it just happened. I spoiled 3 of my innings. I later realised what the problem was, when I was fielding in the same old position of mine (right wing). My 4th and 5th innings were really good, and made them basehits.
My 4th innings, being the funniest situation of the entire match, rather the entire league :D . I made a base hit, the next batsmen hit the ball high in the air, I didn't knew that I was not supposed to run to the 2nd base if the ball was caught. As soon as the batsmen hit the ball, I started running and I covered two more bases. The 3rd base coach then said me that I was out, I had no clue what was going on. I had to walk back to the bench. Jason, my captain then said me that I was not supposed to run if the ball was caught (man, it was baseball for a while that caught my mind).
My 5th inning was a really good hit, making a double and winning the game 18 to 7. Good way to win these games, and its really a nice feeling when you are playing a sport for the first time, and you hardly know the rules, and you are winning matches.
