Why baseball is the best sport

Which brings me to my next point. Any team can make a comeback at any time. With the other sports, it is not necessarily the case. In football, you don't see many teams score five-straight times to tie a game.

Sure, it happens, but not very often. In hockey, if you are down by three goals, the game is basically over. Basketball, however, is a little different. Basketball is all about "runs. There is no clock in baseball, so that means that as long as a team is willing to fight, they are still in the game. The trade deadline is almost like a holiday. All the rumors have you wondering up until PM ET on July 31 if your favorite player will be traded.

Granted, most of the superstars never get dealt, but it is great thinking that your team may get one of the best players in the league to help them during the stretch run. How many of you guys have seen Anna Benson? She is without a doubt one of the hottest women out there, but she's not even the best of the player's wives. Hall-of-Fame weekend is one of the best weekends of the year.

Every year, we get to show our appreciation to some of the greatest to ever take the field. Last year, I was fortunate enough to go to the induction ceremony for Cal Ripken Jr. It was one of the most amazing days of my life. The amount of people that were there just blew my mind. No other sport honors its greats like baseball does. When players are inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, it just does not seem like there is as much hype or time put into the ceremony.

Even so, it is also what makes baseball an exciting one and a huge reason why you should play baseball. Why play baseball? A huge reason is that a game is not bound by a time limit, unlike some other sports.

Basketball consists of four quarters with 12 minutes of playing time each. Soccer is played in two minute halves. Baseball, on the other hand, needs teams to reach 27 outs, no matter how long it takes. This makes every possession in a baseball game exciting because every pitch, at-bat, and base running count. Players have to give their best in every moment of the game. Another reason baseball is the best is that it is played only during the summer months.

Aside from the occasional rain shower, baseball players do not have to worry about harsh weather conditions, such as thunderstorms or freezing temperatures. Fans can also attend a game without having to fret about bringing an umbrella or jacket. They could comfortably come wearing shorts or flip flops.

Every baseball game is filled with drama and excitement. The majority of the games on baseball fields usually go down the wire. On the rare occasion that a game has been so far a blowout, there is always the possibility of a comeback as long as the offense picks it up and the defense breaks down.

Imagine a baseball game at the bottom of the ninth inning with the defense only up by one point, the batter already has two strikes, and a runner is in scoring position.

Imagine another scenario wherein the bases are loaded and there is an opportunity for a baseball team to widen or narrow the gap between its points and that of the opponent. These kinds of situations are common in baseball games and cause the crowd to be on the edge of their seats at any given moment. These are also just a few of the many reasons baseball is the best.

Baseball fans are some of the best fans in the world. They follow the sport and their teams with admiration and passion. The atmosphere they set during the game makes playing or spectating even more exhilarating. If you want to see for yourself how zealous fans can be, try visiting Fenway Park and watch a Boston Red Sox game.

The team has the most loyal fanbase among all professional franchises. After all, it is the culmination of a whole season of the premier baseball league where a world champion is crowned. However, another event that has found extreme popularity is the Home Run Derby. Little Leagues and other baseball leagues have also organized their own home run competitions that provide batters, both young and old, the opportunity to showcase and even level up their strength and timing.

That is a 21 percent increase from the numbers in Furthermore, MLB also reported that baseball fan engagement and participation grew last year. Nearly million fans tuned in to watch Major League and Minor League games in Also, around million people call themselves MLB fans last year. Records clearly show that baseball is as beloved as ever. The answer is none. Baseball provides about six months of games.

The NBA has 82 games in a season, and the NFL only offers 16 games in a season, which doesn't necessarily require consistency in being good at the sport. I'm not saying that football is not an intense sport that needs incredible amounts of athletic talent. I'm just saying that baseball requires a consistency that no other sport does. Baseball is so good that teams don't need to have cheerleaders to distract the crowd from a really horrible loss.

When they lose, they do it gracefully. While other sports bash you over the head with time restraints where the quarters or periods stick to minute intervals, baseball is relaxed and carefree. Baseball decides when it wants to end. As a woman, it's difficult not to notice that of all sports, baseball players wear the best uniforms. Their chiseled faces are not covered by helmets, like in other sports. Their muscular legs aren't curtained behind baggy shorts.

Which leads me to the next point—want to guess the best part of the uniform? Yup, you're right. It's the pants. There is no sport that values history as much as baseball does.

Every season in baseball, records are set and crushed.
