Baseball can truly be everyone’s favorite sport because there is something in the game for everyone. Whether you play the game, watch the game or play the trading card game of the game, you can find something you like in baseball.
For the people who are interested in history, baseball was invented in 1839, so there is a lot of history throughout the game’s past. Cooperstown, NY is the prime place for history, as it has the National Baseball Hall of Fame museum, the Baseball Wax Museum, and Doubleday Field, the birthplace of baseball. Furthermore, there are a wide variety of baseball gear that has been treasured throughout the years. For example, a piece of a player’s equipment is saved when they hit a milestone or season record (Babe Ruth’s 60th home run ball). You could spend countless hours researching the past of baseball.
The people that play the game love almost all of it, but they all have their favorite parts. You could love the rush of stealing a base, hitting a bomb, getting a hit, striking someone out, throwing someone out, or catching a fly ball. There are so many parts of the game to love, you must love something!
There is plenty of strategy involved with baseball as well. For example, you could study which pitches are thrown when and where. All pitchers have a strategy to try to make someone not hit the ball solid (or at all). Furthermore, coaches sometimes put a shift on (move positions from where they normally play to where the batter usually hits the ball). With a shift on, a would-be base hit could be fielded and have you thrown out! Sometimes coaches bring in a pinch hitter (different player off the bench to hit) because they would be better against the pitcher than the other player. All in all, there is a ton of strategy to think about during each game.
Even if you know practically nothing about the game, there is still plenty to do at the ballpark. Each MLB park has its own little unique things they do to make the experience more fun for the fans. Some parks have zip lines, arcade games, slides, and other fun activities to do during the game. In addition, baseball has no timeouts or halftime, so there is almost always action going on. Usually, in between innings, there is something happening on the field or jumbo tron (often) not baseball related. For example, there could be a hat mix-up game, mascot race or sing along. Furthermore, you are allowed to have lunch or dinner right at your seat at the park. If you are into the game, then you could receive a ball or meet one of the players!
In conclusion, baseball is an incredibly versatile game that everyone can enjoy.
