so you'd prefer to watch a game where, nearly the entire game, every player stands in the same location and watches a guy in the same spot throw a ball to another guy crouching in the same spot, and the ball isn't even put in play? And when it is put in play, it usually involves one fielder and one runner, and the rest of the players watch.

Look, I like that LSU baseball is successful and I do watch the CWS when we're there (although it was far more palatable years ago with aluminum bats and there was a ton of offense). But baseball, in general, is a summertime chill event, where people go to eat a dog, drink a beer, and chat with their buddies.

An exciting sporting event, it is not.
