because it is the only sport where everything done as humanly possible. What I mean is there is no mechanical, digital, video, etc. that can determine/change and outcome. Humans are the only factors. Was it fair or foul...that's up to the umpire, and if he's not sure he asks another umpire for his OPINION. Time, HA, there is no time limit to the game the game ends when there is a winner after the bottom half of an inning after the ninth inning. Instant replay...only for the fans. There is no instant replay to determine if he was safe or out or if the fan interfered on the field of play or any of that. That is also left to the discretion of the umpires. And they do make mistakes and the crowd will know because of the huge replay screens at the ballparks. The players make mistakes too. I don't know of any professional baseball player who's career fielding percentage is 1.000. Pitchers make mistakes too there called homeruns. Batters mistakes are called strike-outs. I love the humanity of baseball, that and I am a damn good ball player, too.

It's a thinking man's game.  There is a lot of strategy.  Yes, it can be boring to watch at times, but there is so many things going on in the game that the casual viewer misses.  I watch the "game within the game".  For example, when there is a good base stealer on base and a pitcher tries to keep him close to the base.  Baseball is also a numbers game.  Baseball is the best game for satistics.  It is also nice to compare players and eras.

Well, in order to spark my interest (I was not ALWAYS a baseball fan) my hunny assigned a "value" to each aspect of the game.  We would select a certain player for that night's game and if he got a single, I got a kiss, a double, I got a massage and so on.  It became worth it to watch the game because in the end, I benefited from watching it and cheering the players on.  I began to cheer for our team because I was going to be rewarded when they performed well.  It worked!! Now, I am a bigger baseball fan than my hunny is.  :o)

I consider baseball a great game, but watching it on TV can be tough.  It is, after all, a leisurely game, designed to be viewed in a park on a suuny day.  It affords you and your companion to discuss the game and its strategies, to keep score, to get a beer during a particularly long at-bat.\n\nThanks to TiVo, I now record most of the games I watch on TV.  That way, I can speed it up as much as I like.

Mankind's REAL Obsession is what they do with the ball.  I want to be better than I was last season, playing this game.  I want to score more, play more, Start, Win... Now this is FUN.\n\nCompetition; I can hit the ball harder, further, longer, etc.  I want to win, I play to win, I hate to lose, if I lose, I learn from it & work harder to not let it happen again.  To play is FUN, to win is FUNNNNEERR.\n\nBalls also make exercising more enjoyable.

its soooo much fun!!! i have no way to explain it to you, but its tons of fun to play and watch. but, its all a matter of taste and opinion! and there's a hebrew peoverb that says "you can't argue about taste ans smell", meaning that these things are personal...\nbut, baseball is one of america's biggest pastimes...! and its played all over the world- europe, asia... \nwhatever...!

Yes answering has become addicting. I think it's addicting is because we can try to help people with whatever problem they have. No matter how big or small it may be. And it let's us remember that we are not the only ones with something on our minds.
