(1) So few games. If the baseball season were 16 games long -- if the Yankees only had 8 home games a year -- do you know how popular a ticket baseball would be?
(2) Too much male-on-male touching. Reaching for the ball between the legs of another guy. On every play. And then having to hug the player with the ball and force him down to the ground. I don't get that at all.
(3) There is way too much down time between plays. Now, some people say baseball is slow because there is too much time between action, but I consider each pitch very interesting. And you only have between 20-30 seconds tops between each pitch.
