Most baseball fields are enclosed with a fence that marks the outer edge of the outfield. The fence is usually set at a distance ranging from 300 feet (91 m) to 420 feet (130 m) from home plate.

Let's assume that the baseball field has a perimeter of 300 feet.

The rate is 9 feet per second.

= 300 / 9

= 33.333

So the correct answer is 33.33 seconds.
