why there aren't cheerleaders in baseball?why only baseball coaches wear uniforms?

My guess would be that is too difficult to actually cheer at a game.  While football can be slow moving, it's still easy to cheer for.  A baseball game is pitch, wait, pitch.  The cheerleaders wouldn't be doing much more than the crowd.

baseball is the only sport where you can fail 3 out of 10 times and still be considered successful,  besides what is there not to like about baseball. Trying to hit a round ball with a round bat, an inch is the difference between a homerun and a pop up. A sport where strength has nothing to do with your success. Baseball is a real life chess game between teams. I guess if youre into football and all the hitting then youlle be dissapointed by attempting to watch 9 innings of baseball. But baseball is just one of the sports you cant pick up right away and just be good, even if you are a natural athlete, and a players strongest attribute is his head, the real game of numbers. A pitcher can throw a no hitter and still lose, i can just sit here all day and think about what really makes me love baseball. and the guys like pujols, smoltz, clemens is what really make people love the game.

I am a cheerleader. No, cheerleaders are not allowed to wear jewelry. This is because if they were to go into a stunt, it could get caught and they could be hurt. I personally think this is kind of dumb, but hey, rules are rules.

The cheerleaders at my high school?  Good luck!  I just like the miniskirt part of the uniform...  Now, wait.  Isn't there a SHORT-sleeve version of that?  You want NO sleeve?  That would look weird...  I do remember seeing a short-sleeve uniform allowed for the private schools around here for warm weather.  I'm not sure if they are still required to wear a vest with that or something...  Didn't go to private school.

Players were given the choice of using the pink bats or not.  While many did, others did not but chose to show their support in other ways (such as pink armbands).

Not enough pitching, hitting or fielding.  But probably the worst is that a lot of times they just aren't playing good baseball.  Awhile back there was a runner on their and the pitcher decided to try to pick him off..problem was no one told the 3rd baseman and the ball went into the stands.  They are constantly missing curofff's and making poor baserunning decisions.

In the end, everyone needs to remember that it is just a game.  That starts with the coaches and umpires.    The adults (parents included) set the precidence that the children will carry throughout their lives.   If the games are about fun and teamwork, that's what the kids will remember.   If it's purely about competition, then that's what the kids will remember.\n\nI didn't quite understand what you said about why the child was thrown out of the game, but to throw a 9-11 year old out of a game because they spoke out of place (whether they were right or wrong is inexcusable.)   As a coach, I would petition the league to not reinvite that particular umpire back to judge games.   This is supposed to be fun.   If the child pushed another child, or swung the bat at someone, or even did something to the umpire...that might warrant the child to be evicted from the game, but not speaking (unless vulgar profanity was being used).    There are rules that need to be enforced and we can't have anarchy on the field either, and you need to have an umpire that can distinguish what is appropriate and what is not.  \n\nI know as an umpire I wouldn't appreciate a 9-11 year old taunting me with the usual, "Get some glasses ump." stuff that you hear from the older kids and from the stands, but I wouldn't evict the child.   I might warn the child and the coach that I wouldn't tolerate it and the next time I'll make the kid sit out an inning or two.

Because that division doesn't exist.  There is only one division in the National League.....The NL East.  Let's Go Mets!

I was at the Cubs vs. Padres game today which all the cubs used them and most of the padres did, and i thought that it was a neat idea.  They all wore pink arm bands and breast cancer survivors sang the national anthem.  It was a nice touch for the MLB to do since baseball is the sport that more women watch than any other.  I liked the idea.

This travesty is one of the few that still remain in sports today.  The league has cracked down on the changing strike zone and I know this will be worked on next year.  You are right on, though, it is a joke and a pity that they won't start making the call as it should be made as they do in all other levels of the sport!  Great question!

High School baseball will open more doors for you. you may not be competitive but when you plan to go to colleges, the schools you apply to will look at your transcripts and see that you played HS baseball and contributed to your school in other ways than just attending school. Your coaches can also be used as references for colleges and jobs. It also gives you an opportunity to make friends with people you go to school with. Making friends can't be a bad thing.

There is a difference between a softball and a baseball. The softball is the big, soft one and the baseball is the little hard one.

Cos MLB doesn't respect people. I'm not watching them anymore. Nobody should. they are covering and have covered athletes in th epast and they will do it in the future.\n\nI HATE MLB NOW! and i used to love it.

Because baseball is a game for the weak and slow-witted, like NASCAR.\n\nFootball players get more physical punishment in a few plays that a pitcher does in a whole game. Basketball players run quickly for a whole game. Baseball players sort of stand there and do nothing and then have the stones to strike for more money. I hate baseball.

Well I think with Basketball they would have to wear a sports jacket under the new Dress code. After all the players that aren't able to play have to. I would actually guess most of it is Dress codes by the league. The NFL though proably just kinda doesn't worry. They proably have a small thing like that the coaches are to look respectable but that's about it. Actually if you look at NFL coaches they usually look pretty reasonably dressy.

Because baseball really isn't a sport.  You can play that game until your 50 and don't have to be in shape at all.
