Interesting post Nose. Over this side of the pond little is known about baseball. Our summer sport is the greatest game on earth (cricket) although I appreciate we are probably both ignorant to each others game.
Baseball is played over in Australia and cricket players cut the mustard very well on the 'ball park'. Many years ago a top Aussie cricketer (DK Lillee) took on a top American baseball player at both games and came out on top. The American could not lay a bat on the cricket ball, due mainly to the bounce, whereas Lillee found the 'full tosses' meat and drink on the diamond.
In the spirit of this board I will follow the baseball season this year and try to become less ignorant about the game. I might need you as a guide though, so be ready for some basic questions.
Question one, which team should I follow?
