Answers:
What would be a good informative speech about baseball?
a walkoff homerun is like a simple homerunfor any run to count the player must touch the the plate
this also works with other situations
Example:
bases loaded
the batter is hit
the batter and every other runner must advance to the next base to get the man on third to the plate
By touching the base the player scores a run
The player must touch the base or home plate
The same things apply when the player hits a homer instead of walking

you would think that if there was a runner on base the batter would not need to but he does indeed need to touch all the bases and home plate.i think they call it a walk off because no one needs to run
If his run is absolutly needed to win the game then, yes.Tied 3-3 and he hits a solo shot, he must touch the plate. 3-3 base loaded and he hits one over the fence, he doesnt need to touch plate.
I wonder who could the St. Louis Cardinals could trade for or possibly acquire?
Any base runner must touch all the bases. If a runner enters the dugout without first touching home plate he is out and that run does not count. Even if the ball goes over the fence.Yes, unless the batter-runner is prevented from doing so by fans.

Unless they are hurt running the bases and can't continue.. In that case, the pinch runner must touch the plate. But yes, the plate must be touched, as must every base.If you check the replay of any walk-off HR, you'll see that the umpires leave the field one at a time, after the batter-runner has touched each base in order. You'll also see the defense "walk off" of the field. If you're having trouble finding such a clip, try Game 6 of the 1993 WS. The radio call was "Touch 'em all Joe! You'll never hit a bigger home run in your life!", by the late Tom Cheek.
