Another is accessibility of the game itself for neighborhood pick up games. Basketball you can be done with two players at the park (even just one child shooting hoops works). Even football the neighborhood kids and I could play that with just 5 of us (I was all time quarterback with two receivers on each side). Baseball, though, was always hard to do because there is too much chasing after the ball when there aren't enough people to fill all the holes in the field.
Just need four people to play over-the-line, we played that all the time as kids.
