Explanatory Answer:

To answer this question, we need to know the distances involved in running around all 4 bases on a baseball field and running a 100-yard dash.

The distance between each base on a baseball field is 90 feet, or approximately 27.4 meters. Running around all 4 bases involves a total distance of 360 feet, or approximately 109.7 meters.

A 100-yard dash is equivalent to running 300 feet, or approximately 91.4 meters.

Therefore, running around all 4 bases on a baseball field involves a greater distance than running a 100-yard dash. The difference in distance is:

360 feet - 300 feet = 60 feet

or

109.7 meters - 91.4 meters = 18.3 meters

So running around all 4 bases on a baseball field involves 60 feet or 18.3 meters more distance than running a 100-yard dash.
